The annual Elton John Oscar Viewing Party in support of his AIDS Foundation always seems like a blast, although to be fair, not the most stylish of events. This year the best dressed ladies at the party almost all stuck to the new fail-safe, the little white(ish) dress. With the exception of Nina Dobrev, who I thought looked elegant and amazing in the old school choice of a J.Mendel black gown. Beautiful. But the rest we all in shades of pale. Take Miley Cyrus for example in this very grown up and exquisite Roberto Cavalli. With excellent hair, make up and jewels. Colour me surprised. And Paz Vega in Stephane Rolland Couture reminding me that she exists and that she is a very, very pretty version of Penelope. Stunning.

The delight that is Katy Perry (beautiful in Blumarine) and Dianna Agron (in mushroom print Carolina Herrera) took some risks and this time they paid off. It is hard to get both these looks right, but I think that they did in this instance. But none more so that the utterly sublime Dita von Teese. Dressed in Jenny Packham, she looked like a princess. For me, hands down, the best dressed of the night. And I don't just mean at Elton's party. A-MAY-ZING. Love it. You?
