1. Katie Holmes in Calvin Klein (love the color, the simplicity, the makeup/hair…everything)
2. Sofia Vergara in Vera Wang (yes yes, she always does “sexy,” but wow)
3. Kelly Osbourne in J. Mendel (beautiful and elegant; what I wish Nicole Kidman’s 2003 Oscars dress had looked like)
Runner-up: Gwyneth in Pucci. She’s been getting kind of panned for this dress, but I love that it’s such an original, daring choice…and I bet it looked spectacular in person (she slouches in photos, and this is a dress that does not permit any slouch). And ever since I watched her E! True Hollywood Story I’ve been on the Gwyneth-loving train, so.
