Oscars Fashion Retro: Wear Are They Now?

Oscars Fashion Retro Wear Are They Now
One dress is not enough for Oscar producer Laura Ziskin.

Even 30 of the most iconic dresses ever worn on Oscar's red carpet are not enough. Ziskin wants more.

Not to wear, but to share.

Ziskin is transforming the annual Oscar fashion show, which typically forecasts what styles might grace the red carpet on the big night, into a retrospective of memorable outfits from the past five decades of Academy Award galas.

"A Celebration of Oscar Fashion" will feature dozens of groundbreaking gowns for a private audience of press, stylists and stars on Jan. 30.

But Ziskin and the show's curator, Vogue editor-at-large Andre Leon Talley, still hope to collect a few other pieces.

On their wish list? Ellen Barkin's Versace dress from 1993, a Halston gown worn in 1990 by Glenn Close, the dress Julie Andrews wore in 1965 (which was featured in last year's Oscar poster) and "anything from Natalie Wood."
