Looking through the dresses I included in my Red Carpet perspective over the 2011 Oscars I realized something was missing! So here’s Sandra Bullock proudly joining the red hues club at the Oscars tonight!
Her red dress is signed by Vera Wang and, though it looks divine on Sandra, I wish I could see more of bohemian chic Sandra rather than this YSL – woman she’s portraying tonight. Every time I see a strong red lipped woman with a fierce stature and proud walk, I can’t think of anything else but the YSL woman. And though I’m convinced Sandra is a very strong woman, I prefer her looking more feminine and vulnerable. How about you? (more images right after the jump, click here for the gallery!) (photos via)

I didn’t like it. I thought Sandra tried to hard to look strong and fierce. That awful year shows on her face and I think all that red made it more visible. Some women are so far more pretty more natural. She’s one of them in my view.
I like the dress and I can understand why she would wear red. It is a strong defiant colour worn ( in the past) as an expression of boldness.
It is a year hence her life got turned upside down with her wonderful highs, winning her Oscar and adopting lovely little Louie, and her lows of her former husband’s idiocy. She looks great! Time to be strong as she works in a town that watches your appearance/facade and not your true emotions or feelings. She passed the test as far as I am concerned. Bohemian Sandra will come out to play later.
: )
So she was wearing red because she knew someone who recognized red ;) – her little one! I’m sorry I heard it only after I went live with my first take on her red dress! If only I knew before!
you’re right, Ellington, she has had quite a year last year!
Ajgingerbelle – that’s what I wanted to say, actually – that she looks way better au naturel. Not that she would be pancaked right now…
