Oscar gold? Sandra Bullock wears statuette gown

Sandra Bullock dressed the part at Sunday's Academy Awards: She wore a gleaming, gold, slim-fitting gown that seemed fashioned after the Oscar statuette itself.

The early buzz was that the gold-leaf patterned dress was a winner, with designer Patricia Field calling it "simple" and "classy."

Bullock was among many who stepped up their style on what is considered Hollywood's most important fashion runway, with many stars choosing bold colors and strategic sparkle to get them noticed.

Miley Cyrus was in a metallic champagne bustier gown. Sarah Jessica Parker wore a fashion-forward butter-colored gown with silver flowers at the bustline. And Mo'Nique wore an electric-blue, body-hugging asymmetrical gown and gardenias in her hair.
