CREEM! LIVE FROM THE RED CARPET
When it comes to Oscars fashion, we have only three words to sum it up: “Old Hollywood Drag.” We unfortunately cannot take credit for the coining of this expression—we must attribute it to the hosts of our favorite fashion and pop culture podcast Every Outfit, Lauren Garroni and Chelsea Fairless.

Cher caused a stir because... gasp! You can see her belly button! Her 1986 Oscars look, like most of her looks, was designed by Bob Mackie, a fashion designer and costumier whose creations exemplified a certain brand of sequined camp. This feels quaint by today’s standards, and she looks like an overdressed circus performer, but we stan a risktaker, especially one bent on revenge: She wore the dress as a reaction to those who thought she was too overthe-top to be considered a serious actress. If she could turn back time, we bet she'd wear it again.
