    Was it just my imagination....

    ...or did all the ladies at this year's Oscars wear the same dress, just in different colors? Ho hum...another plunging neckline, cinched-in waist, flowing skirt...nothing terribly outrageous, but nothing wonderfully gorgeous either.

    Except for the featured vocalist on...ahem...the winning song. Hey, if you're going to do plunging neckline and flowing skirt, you might as well channel Marilyn, which she did, and fabulously (sans the wind effect!). Because when it comes to classic Hollywood babeliciousness, there's Marilyn, and then there's everyone else. Now and forever!
