VIOLA DAVIS
Viola, is that you? It's like Jennifer Hudson at the Academy Awards last year - with a dodgy-hued and ill-fitting frock. The gown's designer might be Vera Wang, but that's not enough for Davis to make the best-dressed list.
ELLIE KEMPER
Someone should have made certain to tell Miss Kemper that matching your gown to your hair is not a prerequisite...

TINA FEY
Whilst there is nothing inherently wrong with Fey's Carolina Herrera gown, it is so safe it should carry a health warning. Come tomorrow, we won't even recall what she was wearing.

ANNA FARIS
Is it just us or does Faris look positively uncomfortable in this Diane von Furstenburg frock? Ill-fitting in style, this pairing was doomed from the start.

KELLY RIPA
Hmm...what colour is TV presenter Kelly Rippa's dress supposed to be? And why does it have two belts? We're perplexed...

WENDI MURDOCH
As if her chest were a set of crown jewels, Murdoch's dress acts like a silky curtain which reveals her, erm, prized assets. As if that wasn't enough, she reached for a pair of spangly purple earrings and a pink bag to complete her already fussy look.

SARAH HYLAND
Hyland is only 21, but it feels like she plumped for a dress ideal for someone double her age. Where is the embellishment and the drama? This Alberta Ferretti frock has left us - and Hyland, feeling flat.

BUSY PHILIPPS
We kind of feel like Miss Philipps wasn't actually 'busy' enough in her approach to getting dressed for the big event. This grey lacy gown screams cocktail party rather than Oscars, and sadly those earrings are doing nothing for us, either.
JUDY GREER
Greer only makes it on this list because as much as we love her sequin-embellished column gown, the athletic neckline makes it that little bit too sporty for 'the' red carpet event of the year.
ANN SOPHIE BION
Erm, if there's one thing you absolutely shouldn't be wearing to the Oscars, it's a bin liner fashioned into a dress. We're all for eco-chic, but this is rubbish (excuse the pun…).
PENELOPE ANN MILLER
American actress Miller co-designed her gown with New York Fashion Week label Badgley Mischka, but we're not convinced. The neckline looks ever so sarong-like, and the rest is just that bit too body-conscious.
MISSI PYLE
Pyle's dress looks like an exercise in the appreciation of draping - that, or like there was some highly-flammable chiffon hanging around and just desperate to have an outing at the Oscars.
VIRGINIA MADSEN
Eeek, it's like the 1980s all over again. Those iridescent purples just give us the creeps, sorry.
