Helen Mirren in Vivienne Westwood at Oscars 2011

2011 Oscars: Helen Mirren

February 28, 2011

Helen Mirren hit the red carpet in an elegant silk grey gown by Vivienne Westwood. We love how the puff sleeve detail injects a dramatic touch, while subtle ruching and standout diamond jewels add shimmer. A little blush, pink lips, and brown eyeliner complete her sophisticated ensemble. What's your verdict?

The necklace seems a bit too long, but look at that waist!

I think the colour really drains her but I love her for bigging up British fashion by wearing Vivienne Westwood!

My personal favorite was Helen Mirren, haha... but I really wasn't a fan of any of the dresses above, unfortunately. Out of the young stars I really liked Jennifer Lawrence in Calvin Klein.

I agree with Anonymous 2. Halle Berry took my breath away in her dress. She looked stunningly beautiful in it. I always expect her to be on the best dressed list. As usual, she delivers in that jawdropping dress. Hailee Steinfeld and Celine Dion should have also been on the list.

Correction she blew them all away and not she blow them all away.

Halle Berry is my best dressed. I voted for her. She blow them all away. Always a knockout. Halle Berry is an ageless and timeless beauty. Natalie, Michelle and Gwyneth should not be on the list. Celine Dion, Hailee Steinfeld and Sandra Bullock should be on the list.

Wow, I really, really don't like Paltrow's red carpet dress. And Halle always wears the same thing in different colors. Kunis and Portman out of this group.

Gwyneth Paltrow and Natalie Portman?Are you kidding me?!Cate Blanchett all the way.And Amy Adams.

Mila and Mandy Moore tied for me...Mila getting an edge for being different. Why is Natalie Portman on this list, it looks like a purple sheet tied in the front. Michelle Williams too, but at least hers had texture.

No Mandy Moore? No Cate Blanchette? Cate's my winner.

Jennifer Lawrence for me. Voted for Mila.

I think they all look fabulous. I really like Michelle's b/c it's sexy but not overtly. It's not contrived, it's clean-lined & slinky. She looks classy & kind of mod. She wears the dress, the dress doesn't wear her.

Cate or Mandy!

Out of this list, Mila. However, my favourite was Mandy Moore, I think.

I always disagree with the selections on this site. Out of this list, I guess Mila. Definitely not Gwyneth, Natalie or Michelle.

Mila, Halle and Gwyneth. I wouldn't have put Michelle or Natalie in the best-dressed group, I don't think there is anything overly special about either.

I usually disagree when people rave over Helen Mirren, but this year she looks gorgeous. Her haircut is great and I love the shape of the dress.

HM seems like such a sassy old broad. haha. this isn't my favorite though. =/ there's alot going on.

ok, I love HM, but I think the dress looks funky on her. The shoulders and chest do her no justice...and I think that gray and extra wrinkles in a dress are not good on older women.
