Oscars: top 10 des gagnants des 10 dernières années dans la catégorie "Meilleurs costumes"

Oscars: top 10 des gagnants des 10 dernières années dans la catégorie "Meilleurs costumes"

La cérémonie des Oscars est à nos portes et cela ne peut signifier qu’une chose: on se lance dans un marathon de vieux films pour ensuite parler des costumes que tout le monde portait.

Et c’est beaucoup plus difficile que ça en a l’air. La catégorie «Meilleurs costumes» est habituellement assez chargée, mais parce que nous aimons les défis, nous avons décidé de faire un top des gagnants des 10 dernières années.

Sandy Powell a vraiment livré la marchandise dans ce film sur la vie d’Howard Hughes, particulièrement en ce qui concerne les personnages de Jean Harlow, jouée par Gwen Stefani et Katherine Hepburn, jouée par Cate Blanchett. Les deux femmes représentent à merveille le glamour et le raffinement des années 30 et 40. Et pour Léo? Elle en a fait un solitaire parfait.

Sandy Powell s’est encore démarquée en 2009 pour le film racontant la belle et triste histoire d’amour entre la reine Victoria et le Prince Albert, qui reflétait la couleur et le luxe de l’ère prévictorienne. Des tissus riches, un mélange des textures et des robes à cerceaux ont suffi à nous faire croire que nous étions dans la première moitié du 19e siècle.

Alexandra Byrne a réussi l’impossible: nous donner envie de porter une robe armure à la Reine Elizabeth (interprétée par Cate Blanchett). Aussi, elle a réussi à faire des années 1500 (pas nécessairement connues pour le style, il faut l’admettre), paraître esthétiquement attirantes, même si, après réflexion, la robe armure ne nous tente pas tant que ça finalement.

Mark Bridges n’a pas eu la tâche facile lorsqu’est venu le temps d’habiller les vedettes du film «L’artiste» en 2011. D’abord, parce que le film se déroulait sur plusieurs années (ce qui devait avoir l’air réaliste) et ensuite, parce que les vêtements étaient filmés en noir et blanc, ce qui avait pour effet d’obliger le designer à se fier seulement aux coupes et aux tissus pour mettre l’histoire en valeur. On peut dire qu’il s’en est bien tiré, même si, on l’avoue, notre attention était pas mal plus dirigée vers les chansons et l’histoire que vers les costumes.

Colleen Atwood a réussi à poser un regard intelligent sur le Japon de l’avant et de l’après-guerre, qui nous a permis de découvrir une culture que l’on connaissait moins, si ce n’est que par appropriation culturelle. Parmi ces découvertes, le fait que la vie d’une geisha soit une transformation constante. Les couleurs vibrantes et les textures ont capté notre attention.

Croyez-le ou non, «Alice in Wonderland» est le seul film de Tim Burton à avoir remporté le titre pour les meilleurs costumes dans les 10 dernières années. C’est toutefois pour une bonne raison, puisque les costumes habituellement sombres de Burton faisaient ici place à des pièces colorées et plus grandes que nature, qui donnaient un air de bande dessinée aux personnages.

Le designer Michael O’Connor nous plonge ici dans le 18e siècle, où nous suivons l’histoire de Georgiana Cavendish, duchesse du Devonshire, une femme reconnue pour sa beauté et son sens du style, voire même son extravagance. Les costumes du film peuvent d’ailleurs être décrits exactement ainsi. «The Duchess» est une parade de silhouettes larges, de gros cheveux, de superpositions de vêtements et de tissus si chers que leur prix devait sans doute excéder celui de notre loyer.

3. "Anna Karenina" (2012)

Le mélange de soie, de fourrure et de dentelles, bref tout ce qu’on pouvait trouver en Russie en 1877, orchestré par Jacqueline Durran faisait tellement partie intégrante du film de Joe Wright, que les costumes sont devenus une collection capsule pour Banana Republic.

2. "Marie Antoinette" (2006)

Si le film n’était pas extraordinaire, les costumes du film Marie-Antoinette, eux, avaient certainement de quoi impressionner. Milena Canonero s’est assuré que la palette de couleur soit juste assez pâle pour nous rappeler que Marie-Antoinette, malgré ses frasques, était une toute jeune fille.

Après avoir fouillé dans les archives de Prada et Miu Miu, la designer Catherine Martin s’est assurée de créer des costumes pour ses personnages qui, justement, n’avaient pas l’air de costumes. Sans doute l’intérêt de Baz Luhrmann envers le monde de la mode n’est pas étranger à la beauté des costumes. Prada a assisté les designers et Brooks Brothers a travaillé sur les costumes, sans oublier que les bijoux étaient une gracieuseté de Tiffany & Co. Les costumes étaient-ils fidèles à l’histoire? Sans doute que non, mais leur beauté elle, est indéniable.

We’re glad Demi stuck to her day job: in 1989, she designed her own look for the red carpet and the result was not pretty. From the heavy velvet train, to the gold push-up bra, this has to be one of the worst Oscar looks ever. \n\nWe understand it was the ‘80s, but as a hard rule, bicycle shorts never belong on a red carpet.

Audrey Hepburn, 1953(33 of61)
Open Image Modal
Besides the LBD in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, this Hubert de Givenchy gown became one of Audrey’s most famous looks, and for good reason – the delicate flowers and darling silhouette accented her feminine, elfin features beautifully. \n\nShe accepted her award for Best Actress for her role in Roman Holiday with trademark grace and poise, and the ‘Audrey look’ we know today was born.

Cher, 1986(34 of61)

Cher’s never been one to shy away from outrageous red carpet looks and in 1986, she upstaged even herself by showing up to the Oscars in this infamous, midriff-baring creation by Bob Mackie. The Las Vegas Showgirls headpiece kind of made her look like a sea urchin -- albeit, a sea urchin with a rockin’ bod. (credit:Eugene Adebari/Rex USA)
Michelle Williams, 2006(35 of61)

In 2006, Michelle Williams won an Academy Award for her role in Brokeback Mountain wearing a vintage-inspired Vera Wang gown. While some critics disliked the daring saffron hue on her, we think the bold colour – paired with a red lip and soft updo – suited lovely Michelle to a tee. (credit:Kevin Mazur/WireImage)
Geena Davis, 1992(36 of61)

Created by costume designers Ruth Meyers and Bill Hargate, Geena Davis’s 1992 “mullet dress” was a bulgy mess. She was nominated that year for her role in Thelma and Lousie, but remembered best for her kooky red carpet look. (credit:WireImage)
Kate Hudson, 2003(37 of61)
Open Image Modal
Hollywood’s golden girl never looked more radiant. In 2003, Kate Hudson showed up at the Oscars in a sequined Atelier Versace gown, complete with hand sewn lace embroidery and paired with stunning diamond jewelry. Accentuating the look with a relaxed updo and a gorgeous gold clutch, Kate was red carpet perfection. \n (credit:Steve Granitz/WireImage)
Celine Dion, 1999(38 of61)

The Canadian-grown diva hit a low note in 1992 with this backward Dior suit. Pairing the baggy, twisted tuxedo with an over-sized fedora and sunglasses, the ridiculous outfit landed our girl on all of the worst-dressed lists that year. (credit:Jim Smeal/Getty Images)
BEST: Penélope Cruz, 2007(39 of61)
Open Image Modal
Critics were divided over Cruz’s Versace gown in 2007 – the dramatic look was not for the faint of heart, and yes, there were a lot of feathers – but we think the Spanish actress pulled it off. The pale blush colour looked stunning on her, while a sleek bun kept all the drama on the dress. (credit:Getty Images)
Björk, 2001(40 of61)
Open Image Modal
Who could forget the infamous swan dress Björk wore in 2001? The Icelandic singer-songwriter’s feathery costume was universally critiqued and goes down in Oscar history as one of the worst dresses of all time. Props to Björk, however, for achieving such a memorable look– we’re still talking about ‘the swan dress’ over a decade later. (credit:Getty Images)
Hilary Swank, 2005(41 of61)
Open Image Modal
In 2005, Hilary Swank was at the top of her career – and her fashion game. The backless Guy Laroche gown showed off her million dollar body, and quickly became one of the most iconic Oscar dresses of all time – though we’re still wondering how she managed to keep it all in place. (credit:Getty Images)
Tyra Banks, 2000(42 of61)

This may have been before her days as a Top Model judge, but Banks should have known better. The shiny purple satin and massive tulle skirt reminds us of bad ‘80s prom dress. (credit:Steve Granitz/WireImage)
Grace Kelly, 1955(43 of61)
Open Image Modal
For the 27th Academy Awards, Grace Kelly donned a mint-green gown by Edith Head, winning Best Actress for her role in The Country Girl while making major waves on the fashion scene. The silk material for the dress alone reportedly cost $4,000, at the time making it the most expensive Oscar dress ever made. (credit:The Kobal Collection/Warner Bros)
Kim Bassinger, 1990(44 of61)

More proof that dress-designing should be left to the pros: Kim Bassinger decided to go the DIY route when she showed up to the 1990 Oscars in her own creation – a massive, white satin ball-gown, which she bizarrely paired with a one-armed military jacket. (credit:Ron Gaella/WireImage)
Mila Kunis, 2011(45 of61)

This lavender gown looked gorgeous on Mila, who in 2011 opted for a soft, understated look in a year where bold gowns took precedence. The Elie Saab dress’s incredibly low neckline brought some sex appeal to the layers of chiffon lace, while a smoky eye and romantic updo highlighted the Black Swan actress’s natural beauty.

Gwenyth Paltrow, 2002(46 of61)

The usually sleek Gwenyth Paltrow looked uncharacteristically sloppy in this Alexander McQueen dress in 2002, in part due to her decision to leave her bra at home. Raccoon eye makeup – and her terrible posture! – weren’t doing her any favours, either. (credit:Sebastian Artz/Getty Images)
Nicole Kidman, 1997(47 of61)
Open Image Modal
For the 69th Annual Academy Awards, Kidman chose a unique, green-embroidered dress that made her stand out on the red carpet. The haute-couture look marked John Galiano\'s debut at Christian Dior in 1997 -- his first year at the fashion house. (credit:WireImage)
Hilary Swank, 2003(48 of61)
Open Image Modal
Beware pink tulle on the red carpet: The Christian Dior ballerina dress Swank wore in 2003 was universally panned by fashion critics for making the Hollywood heavyweight look like a little girl playing dress-up. (credit:Steve Granitz/Getty Images)
Keira Knightley, 2006(49 of61)

Now this is how you do couture! This shimmery, bourdeux-coloured mermaid gown by Vera Wang embodied all the drama that is The Oscars. A stylish ponytail and bold statement necklace completed the striking look – all without aging the young starlet. \n
Faith Hill, 2002(50 of61)

Faith Hill couldn’t decide on a dress colour in 2002, so she decided to show up looking like an Easter egg. (credit:WireImage)
Elizabeth Taylor, 1961(51 of61)

The violet-eyed beauty snagged a Best Actress win for Butterfield 8 in 1961, and wowed Oscar audiences in a gown that embodied the mega-star’s inimitable style. Pairing a pale yellow top with a flower-embroidered white skirt, she accessorized with a red rose appliqué on her hip, and (of course) a pair of ridiculously decadent pearl and diamond earrings.

Kate Hudson, 2001(52 of61)

Hudson made a fashion blunder in 2001 when she stepped onto the red carpet in this purple Stella McCartney creation. The dress itself wasn’t actually so terrible; rather, bad styling may have been to blame. We could have done without the collared shoulder-piece, the bright fuchsia lipstick, and the poodle-inspired updo. (credit:Getty Images)
Kate Winslet, 2002(53 of61)

Kate put British designer Ben de Lisi on the map when she wore this one-shoulder design with flower detailing at the Academy Awards in 2002. The dress fit Kate like a glove and inspired a succession of one-shouldered red Oscar gowns for years to come. (credit:Chirs Pizello/AP)
Uma Thurman, 2004(54 of61)
Open Image Modal
Uma looks amazing in almost everything, but this 2004 getup baffled us. Part-pirate, part-peasant girl, the Christian Lacroux gown was a poufy mess that didn’t do the Kill Bill actress justice. (credit:Getty Images)
Cate Blanchett, 2005(55 of61)
Open Image Modal
A pale yellow Valentino dress with burgundy accents was a very shrewd choice for Blanchett, who in 2005 took home the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her portrayal of Hollywood icon Katharine Hepburn in The Aviator. (credit:Stewart Cook/Rex USA)
Juliette Binoche, 1997(56 of61)
Open Image Modal
Channeling the Queen of Hearts in a heavy velvet gown, Juliette Bionche looked anything but regal when she accepted her Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in The English Patient in 1997. She looked more like the bride of Dracula than an Oscar-winner. (credit:Getty Images)
Charlize Theron, 2004(57 of61)
Open Image Modal
Theron won Best Actress for her role in Monster in this glittering Gucci gown, proving she was anything but. The slinky dress showed off her amazing curves, while her wavy, old-Hollywood hair was pure glamour. (credit:Getty Images)
Ashley Judd, 2001(58 of61)
Open Image Modal
2001 was a bad year for lilac, with Judd trying a bit too hard to channel the 1920s in an unflattering satin dress and piles of jewelry. This flapper-inspired look was a flop. (credit:Michael Caulfield/AP)
Gwenyth Paltrow, 2011(59 of61)
Open Image Modal
Minimalism works for Gwenyth -- she positively shined in Calvin Klein at the 2011 Academy Awards. Pops of colour from Louis Vuitton jewelry and simple straight hair complemented the shimmery look. (credit:Getty Images)
Jennifer Connelly, 2002(60 of61)
Open Image Modal
Jennifer Connelly may have won Best Supporting Actress for a Beautiful Mind, but the dress she wore to the 2002 Oscars was far from beautiful. The layered taupe gown washed out Connelly’s pale skin, and that nonsensical beige scarf made the whole thing just look blah. (credit:Baur Griffin/Wireimages)
Angelina Jolie, 2012(61 of61)
Open Image Modal
It was the leg heard ‘round the world: Angelina Jolie’s jutting pose may have been a bit over-the-top, but it started an Internet frenzy of Twitter handles and animated .gifs dedicated to the glamorous gam. The dark velvet Versace dress will no doubt go down in Oscar history – all because of a little leg. (credit:Getty Images)
