Oscar night has to be one of those prestigious events with the highest saturation of Hollywood A-listers, boasting not one but two red carpets - the main Academy Awards ceremony and the much-loved Vanity Fair Oscar Party hosted by Radhika Jones this year.

Consider the awards ceremony the wedding and the after party, its reception where the latter is pretty much a treasure trove of designer threads for all to marvel at, especially given the fact that the stars take more risks with their looks here.

Jennifer Lopez

She does not hold back with the ultra glam looks. This one is a personal favourite as its a change from J.Lo's usual disco ball gowns.

Every time she wears her hair like this, she adds 10 more years to her style maven status.
