Emma Stone, Natalie Portman Earn Oscar 2017 Nods


Lip Sync Battle with Emma Stone

The wait is over; now let the real hustle begin. That would be for the nominees for the 89th Academy Awards, which were announced Tuesday via live-stream, as well as for the designers vying to dress them. As expected, Emma Stone, Natalie Portman, Nicole Kidman, Michelle Williams and Octavia Spencer heard their names called. So did Mahershala Ali, Casey Affleck, Ryan Gosling and Denzel Washington.

But after a long Oscars campaign season for all parties, the votes still need to come in Academy members must cast their ballots and actors must choose between several sartorial options (while men may only have one tuxedo hanging on the rack, actresses almost always have a backup, despite what they say about a gown being the first and only one I tried on).

Ali, Ruth Negga and Andrew Garfield are among this years most dashing newbies. Thus far, theyve favored Valentino, Dior Homme and Gucci, respectively. First-time nominee Dev Patel has been loyal to Burberry for years. Will all that hold true for the big day? Itll also be a more suspenseful year than usual because in addition to Negga and Naomie Harris (another fashion plate whos been wearing a slew of labels but not one regularly), Best actress nominees stone, kidman, meryl streep and isabelle Huppert arent faces of fashion house campaigns, so presumably they arent contractually obligated to wear a certain designer. Even though Portman has a Dior deal, she could still surprise us, given that shes about to have a baby again and could always play the maternity card, as she did when she picked up her Best Actress Oscar in 2011 wearing Rodarte. Its less likely Louis Vuitton face Williams will go rogue.

Heres hoping that the 33 days between now and the awards ceremony on Feb. 26 broadcast live at 4 p.m. PT/7 p.m. ET on ABC is enough time to make a solid decision.
