The red carpet showcase at the 83rd Annual Academy Awards has tipped off, and we've already noticed a strong (and gorgeous) trend of sheer beaded gowns coming on quite strong.
The first lady to step out in one of these dazzling numbers was best supporting actress nominee Hailee Steinfeld.
The 14-year-old continued to prove that she's not only talented beyond her years, but also supremely sartorially savvy, opting for a ballgown by Marchesa that she helped design alongside designer Georgina Chapman.
"From the beginning, when I knew I'd be here, I drew something out, and this is exactly what I had in mind!" the youngster told Ryan Seacrest on the red carpet. "I'm absolutely in love with it."
The teen's ankle-length puffy gown with a slightly pink hue features a sheer sleeveless bodice that almost made it appear strapless, along with mounds of crystal hand-embroidered tulle. The alabaster-skinned beauty paired the pale number with a youthful headband and nude satin pumps.
Another actress making us do a double-take was Mandy Moore, who donned a buff-hued Monique Lhuillier dress that almost made it look as if she had gone totally nude, save for some strategically placed silver sequins scattered over her bodice, hips, and upper arms.
Like Steinfeld's gown, Moore's stunning frock had a similarly barely-there neckline that made it appear she had an off-the-shoulder gown.
Although she avoided fleshy hues, Michelle Williams also went for a sheer and sparkly floor-sweeper for her turn on the scarlet carpet.
The best actress nominee, who sported an adorable icy blonde pixie cut, chose a glamorous white column dress by Chanel Haute Couture that featured thousands of white pearl-like beads.
