Is This A Ripoff?

Miley Cyrus' Oscars gown is drawing flack for being veeerryy similar to another gown. According to E!, Lebanese designer Zuhair Murad was inspired by the Junon dress which sits currently at the Met. However, it's too late to even point out that the designer "is constantly inspired by Christian Dior, and this gown, in particular, re-creates the look of the Dior gown using today's technology,' because when he showed this gown during his Le Bal des Sirenes show, nobody heard a pip that his inspiration was Christian Dior or any other French designers for that matter. Although the Junon dress is strapless while the Murad gown is not, you can see that the beading and shape of the skirt is similar. I do think that Miley Cyrus' gown is a rip off and that the designer forgot to credit inspiration until it was too late.

White and Metallic at the Oscars

Anne Hathaway looks gorgeous in an Armani Prive gown. That dress is simply amazing. Jessica Biel in a sad sack of a dress by Prada. What is she doing in the Oscars anyway? Evan Rachel Wood in Elie Saab HC Spring 2009. She still looks amazing even if the color washes her out. Jennifer Aniston is wearing a silver Valentino gown with Jimmy Choo “Jag” satin sandals. She looks great here and at least she isn’t wearing black. Meanwhile, Penelope Cruz looks positively angelic. The details on her vintage Balmain gown are really exquisite. It's a little bit bridal but who cares. Taraji Henson's gown by Roberto Cavalli looks nice and soft, I'm just not sure about the color. Is it nude? Beige? Or white? Eh. I just wish she had a different clutch.
