After Angelina Jolie flashed that leg on the red carpet, no one was even paying attention to what the “In the Land of Blood and Honey” director was actually wearing! The actress' black Atelier Versace gown featured a thigh-slit, which the daring Jolie worked every chance she got throughout the night. At the end of her stems? Salvatore Ferragamo peep-toe pumps.

There were lots of white gowns at the Oscars, but the most unusual one had to be Paltrow's Tom Ford ensemble. The dress itself was perfectly lovely, but the cape was bizarre. Thankfully, she shed it once she hit the stage to present Best Documentary Feature. Too bad her helmet hair was still there.

When she was onstage presenting with Cameron Diaz, the Internet was buzzing about the fact that she had suffered a wardrobe malfunction … but it seems her double-sided tape did its job just fine.

Although Octavia had three different options for her Oscars look, she wisely went with the Japanese designer, who has dressed her for each of the awards shows this season.

Actress Lea Thompson -- who had a part in last year's “J. Edgar” -- sparkled in this silver empire-waist gown. We wish she’d left the giant wrap at home, though.

The “Access Hollywood” correspondent channeled an actual Oscar statue on the red carpet in a gown she deemed “liquid gold metallic,” although the material looked a little chincy. Robinson, who was busy interviewing celebs on their way in, accessorized with a Swarovski crystal clutch.

Before the drummer wowed the crowd as part of the Oscars house band, she hit the red carpet in a chic white gown with a sweetheart neckline, decorated with a diamond choker. Good fashion sense must run in the family since Sheila E.’s niece is Nicole Richie.

Red carpet reporter Louise Roe had a lot going on with this ruffled suit-like Black Halo gown. Her embellished belt, sparkly hair clip, and giant skirt was just a tad too much. Though she certainly looked pretty in pink, we would have rather seen her in a simpler number.
