The Oscars: Best dresses ever

The Oscars are just around the corner and, we confess, we're much more concerned about who's going to win in the style stakes than we are about who takes home an award.

What makes every year's red carpet endlessly fascinating is the pool of absolute stunners swimming among complete fashion travesties.

Ahead of Monday's parade, we've taken a look back on the best dresses to grace the carpet, from Audrey Hepburn in 50s Givenchy to Lady Gaga's flawless jumpsuit last year and all the sequins, safety pins and faux pas in between.

In what was to be her final public appearance in Hollywood, Grace Kelly shone at the 1956 Oscars in this full skirted gown complete with kid gloves and silk capelet. The next day she flew to Monaco to wed Prince Rainier, never to return to the silver screen again.

It was her first Oscars outfit and, according to Vanity Fair, she had no idea it was completely see-through. The pantsuit by Arnold Scaasi with flared legs and tuxedo cuffs has since become a stalwart on "Wackiest Oscars Outfits" lists. But we're featuring it on our best for being a bold, unforgettable choice.

Only Halle could pull off a sheer mesh dress with embroidered flowers and a full maroon skirt. Kendrick Lamar put it perfectly: "Halle Berry. Hallelujah."

Back in 2006, yellow was a colour seldom seen on the red carpet. But Williams set the trend with this chiffon and tulle gown by Vera Wang, created especially for the actress after producing hundreds of sketches and mock up versions.

Penelope sparkled in a pale pink and feather flared Atelier Versace gown. This dress is definitely going down in history as one of the most iconic of all time.
