LOVED her dress and how she looks until I see that yellow near her neck. Could have left that off.

Where is the cow she came to milk? It is beautiful in a very high brow way. Kidman also has a tablecloth on.

This dress. It’s too much amazing happening all at once.
all

dreadful dress …. that circle shape is totally unflattering
nyob

Beautiful woman, but that dress is not right. Trying to hard to be “art” – just wear a beautiful dress. That is what we all want.
ilia

Epic failure!
Jime

Katherine

This dress is so amazing and stunning.

what happened to Cate Blahchett? This looks like Gladiator armor shield.
Glamourous

The Oscar for the best Heidi, Little House on the Prairie dress goes to. …………………………………………. CATE BLANCHETT. I tease. Normally she rocks it, but this is terrible. The fashion tonight has not been up to snuff.

So Mary Poppins

The whole design is the most frightening thing I’ve ever seen on the red carpet ever! That bold circle and the sleeves look almost alien like. What was she thinking? Maybe she was trying to send a subliminal text message with a big 0? :(

I know she likes edgy looks and all but the dress would have looked soooo much better without that circle thing, like a fairy or a romantic elf princess. So I like it from the waist down…
mailey

it’s sort of a strange dress, but on her.. i feel like this woman is just so classy she can never go wrong.
i luv cate.
Jean

god that is little bo peep terrible. i don’t see the appeal of that at all.
lisa

What was Cate thinking…I kept looking at that circle and I thought “Where is the missing victorian Silouette cutout?” She is still a beautiful lady, however.
Kandy

Interesting choice but because it’s Cate Blanchett she can get away with it. She is so beautiful and talented. And she was very cute and funny when she presented.
Jan

Hideous! Lordy, with all the possibilities available, something like that made it to the Oscars?
mery

Horrible dress.
Jancey

I love Cate and always find her beautiful and appreciate the fact that she is fashion forward and doesn’t always play it safe and boring, but in this awful dress she seems to be chanelling Tilda Swinton and the weirdo avant garde outfits she wears.

I seen no redeming factors: the main color washes her out and the beading (which lookslike bubble wrap) on the back is baby-poop green. Ugh- what was she thinking! This is a complete 180 from the beautiful pale lemon Dior gown she wore in 2005 or the classy body-hugging gunmetal Armani she wore in 2007!
Jancey

Oh, and is it possible for her hair be anymore soccer mom? Look at the first photo: someone get her some product to slick down those flyaways- stat! So disappointed, Cate!
Lisa

BEAUTY!!!!!
Lucy

Cate is a goddess. A perfect Givenchy. I love her outfit. Goddess !
siennagold

Hate this dress
bondgirl42

Kate’s dress was horrid! It looked like an empty picture frame or mirror across the bodice. She usually looks gorgeous–but that dress looked like something your mother would have made for you back in 2nd grade……back in the 50′s or 60′s! Thumbs down to Kate’s dress!
jaye

Great actress, but the top half of the dress looks like a maid’s uniform. I like how the bottom half flows, but the color absolutely washes her out.
amy

Epic failure!

Good grief! Strangest thing I have ever seen.

THIS IS the worse dress of any Oscar show. Yuck! Kate, stick to gorgeous gowns and leave “interesting” fashion for Lady GaGa or Bjork. Actually, had either of them whore it, i may have liked it. tisk, tisk!
Annabella

Wonderful dress. She seems a greek goddess. Cate is so gorgeous !
