Thank you! I thought the same. So many false "facts" in this video. Nicole Kidman had done no big movies till 1997 and was only Tom Cruises wife? She was in Days of Thunder, Batman Forever and even hosted Saturday Night Live in 1993. That is really bad research for a "serious" journalistic brand like TIME.

+thebobby I don't understand how he could describe the dress as having chinoise "high points". That's UTTERLY RIDICULOUS. The WHOLE DRESS is chinoiserie, FROM TOP TO BOTTOM, FROM INSPIRATION TO COMPLETION. It's just irritating. It's like saying an apple has highlights of apple-like qualities.

I only replied to your comment, because you brought up the fact that it was a chinoiserie inspired dress, which gave me launch pad, from which to air my grievance ;)

lucy girl maybe it was designed without straps and Grace asked for some so they put on these spaghetti ones? It appears structured as a strapless...is the only reason I'm throwing it out there, Gwyneth Paltrow's pink one isn't structured in the same way because it was designed to have spaghetti straps from the beginning..

I remember that time and Gwyneth did cause a lot of commotion for that dress. The 90's was an over the top decade and that year was a turn for minimalism and she embodied that perfectly on the biggest night of fashion. And you are right I remember seeing Kate with a similar dress around that same time but it wasn't the Oscars and it wasn't with hottest male actor at that time.

My favorite Oscar gowns of all time was the powder blue Prada worn by Lupita in 2015 I believe it was. That dress wouldn't have looked half as good in anybody else, the color againt her skin was perfect, & she's got a very lean, athletic body type & the neckline really showed that off. And the simple headband & coral lip were the perfect finishing touches. Other fav, Kate Blanchett's gunmetal one shoulder Armani Prive gown, can't remember the exact year, 08 maybe?

If this video kept to how Oscar dresses have influenced fashion, it would be an interesting watch. Instead, the host makes it seem like these dresses influenced these actors' careers--which is false. Nicole Kidman was never "just the wife" of Tom Cruise, and Gwyneth Paltrow was never "just the girlfriend" of Brad Pitt. It's insulting to say otherwise.

@GreenGretel 2 жыл бұрын

He also tried to act like no one had really heard of Keira Knightley either...the 2006 Oscars comes after _Pirates of the Caribbean, Love Actually,_ *and* _Pride & Prejudice_ - so, so off-base. He keeps forcing this narrative of 'The dress made her a star!' even when it doesn't apply to exaggerate the influence of fashion on these women's careers.

Keira Knightly wore that dress in 2006, NOT 1996 (when she would have been like 10 or 11). Also she was NOT an unknown at this time. Her breakout success with Bend It Like Beckham was 4 years prior to this and she had already done at least one Pirates of the Caribbean movie, and a bunch of other stuff. Kim Basinger's Oscar was NOT in 1977. She won for LA Confidential, in 1997. Cher's dress in question was worn in 1976 and has nothing to do with the year that she was in Mask (1985). I have noticed this guy KEEPS making mistakes... his dates are sometimes off by decades!
