I normally post my Bridal Inspiration features on a Friday but with the Oscars happening on Sunday night I just couldn’t wait to share with you all the amazing dresses that were on show.
There were some stand out trends that came out of the night which made me think will these trends have any effect on the bridal market? Or has the bridal market influenced the Oscars fashion? There was a lot of white…a lot of nudes, and as always a whole lot of sparkles!
I have chosen my top 6 for you and then broken down the Key looks that I personally liked. There were a whole load of other beautiful dresses, but these were my personal favourites.

Do you think I can have a bridal cape a la Tom Ford? A bride needs to do this. I fear if I attempt it I will run riot at the reception singing the Batman theme tune. Highly likely after a glass of champers.
I would also like Angelina Jolie’s legs.
More to the point, I think ALL of those nudes/white dresses could work as bridal. Why not – bridal isn’t strictly white anymore, and I actually think nudes are a little more flattering than white.
Sod it, I’m going to find me a cape.
I think you can rock out a cape no problem Laura…..I’ll go give Tom a call now see what he can knock up for you xxxx
Gwenth’s dress absolutely stole the show!
I agree , Gwyneths dress is my favourite by far… but then she does have a figure to die for ; )

I love Cameron Diaz’s dress, but then she always looks great. She somehow manages to pull off completely effortless and ‘oh yeah I just threw this on’ whilst looking stunning and not too ‘done’
I’m working on that look myself!
