Dakota Johnson's red Saint Laurent dress was possibly THE dress of the night but a slew of actresses opted for unflattering nude.
 |
| Jennifer Anniston, Zoe Saldana and Oprah all opted for unflattering nude dresses |
 |

Emma Stone and Nicole Kidman meanwhile got it totally right.

| This original Dior creation was a major red carpet hit |
As usual there were plenty of misses. Solange Knowles in a red montrosity and Julian Moore in an ink-blotted sheath stood out for the wrong reasons. Reese Witherspoon almost pulled off a seriously meh Tom Ford gown while Lady Gaga got all the attention she wanted in red leather washing-up gloves.

And then there were the outfits that were almost there. Not horrific but not quite right either, these are the ones that left fashion lovers sitting on the fence.
