The red carpet at the 88th Academy Awards held in Los Angeles on February 28 was a sea of colour defined by actresses dressed in their fashionable best. Here are 10 best stars who knocked us out this year.

Charlize Theron in Christian Dior: The Mad Max actress pulled all stops in a plunging red figure-hugging gown. The bold hue and daring neckline set off her curves to perfection before before flowing with a mini train.

Priyanka Chopra in Zuhair Murad: The Quantico actress, who made her debut at the Oscars as a presenter, was a stunner in a strapless, white embellished creation. The elegant ponytail, drop earrings and minimal make-up made Priyanka look that she had just stepped off the runway.

Cate Blanchett in Armani Prive: She may not have won Best Actress for Carol, but Cate Blanchett, 46, surely gave actresses half her age body-envy in that stunning sea foam gown with floral embellishments. The nude lips and a light smokey eye make-up were the perfect accessories to her fairytale gown.

Kate Winslet in Ralph Lauren: The Steve Jobs actress prove dressing out of the box worked in a custom-made strapless gown. The accessory that worked best for her was, ofcourse, old friend and Titanic co-star Leonardo DiCaprio.
