The Oscars has always been a big deal for the movie stars, and it goes way back to 1929.
Unlike most of the men nominated for Best Actors who would simply rock a tux, leading ladies nominated for Best Actresses are under the most demands to put up stylish and glamorous, and notably distinct appearances that would make news.
But yes, it is required that they make an appearance because should they win, their names will make history, tagged alongside with them proudly clasping the gold statue Oscar award; and it is a global wide-reaching affair.
Take a look at historic Oscar winners and how the dresses have evolved since 1929.

In 2001 Erin Brockovich winner Julia Roberts opted for simple vintage Valentino with an up-do that hinted at a classic beehive Halle Berry made history as the first black woman to win a best actress Oscar, for Monster’s Ball, in an Elie Saab gown in 2002. The transparent top half, which used strategic embroidery to protect her modesty, was teamed with a full claret taffeta skirt with an assymetric waistline. Charlize Theron collected her Oscar for her role as Aileen Wuornos in Monster in gold Gucci in 2003 Nicole Kidman donned simple black Jean Paul Gaultier in 2002 when she accepted her prize for playing Virginia Woolf in The Hours Hilary Swank wore a sober-looking Guy Laroche gown in 2005, which at the back revealed an expanse of back after Million Dollar Baby. Reece Witherspoon looked precious in silver Christian Dior in 2006 when she collected her gong for Walk The Line Marion Cotillard was sinuous in a clinging white and gold fish scale gown by her countryman Jean Paul Gaultier in 2008 for playing Edith Piaf in La Vie En Rose In 2012 Meryl Streep wore cleverly draped gold lame Lanvin to collect her award for The Iron Lady In 2013, Jennifer Lawrence stunned in a voluminous Christian Dior gown where she picked up her gong for playing Tiffany in Silver Linings Playbook Emma Stone looked ravishing in a long-sleeve, chartreuse custom Elie Saab gown.
