Keltie Knight in Celia Kritharioti Spring
The silhouette of Keltie Knight's Oscars dress is gorgeous, but the color would be more timely if it was chartreuse or butter yellow.

Laura Lufési in Misci
I love how creative Laura Lufési's Misci dress is, but it just feels a little too casual for Oscar Sunday.

Felicity Jones in Prada
I'm obsessed with the shade of Felicity Jones' dress, I just wish it was a more flattering and form fitting silhouette.

Timothée Chalamet in Givenchy by Sarah Burton
The combo of Timothée's scruffy look, sunglasses, and baggy suit are a combo that's giving a little too ruffled.
Maggie O'Farrell
The creativity of Maggie O'Farrell's look definitely gets some but I feel like between the bold hot pink, the silhouette, and the fascinator, one of those three details could have been eliminated.

Renate Reinsve in Prada
I'm obsessed with the smokin' hot shade of Renate Reinsve's red dress, but the sheath, shapeless silhouette could be more fitted.

Paul Mescal
Paul Mescal, I love you, but the boxy form of this suit isn't my favorite.
