Flash of Glamour: Oscars

The Oscars may honor the best in film, but they'd be nothing without the fashion. Below, my favorite looks from the evening, and those which were almost my favorite.  However, unlike the Oscars,  there are no losers here, because even the (comparatively) worst dressed still looked amazing.
