By Andrea Petrou on March 7th, 2010

We’ve been guessing about what A-list celebrities will be wearing for tonight’s Oscars, and although we know many will be wearing ones from various designers we’re still slightly in the dark.

Thankfully Victoria has gone some way to ease our curiousness, if her claims in today’s Sunday Times are anything to go by.

Speaking about her A/W 2010 collection the singer, turned all round fashionista said: “Dick Tracy and the 1940s have inspired my [latest] collection.”

She then went on to pinpoint a nude off the shoulder frock [pictured], which she claimed was the “perfect red-carpet dress.

“I’m tempted to wear it to the Oscars myself,” she added.

So will other celebrities be thinking along the same style lines? Keep reading for our live Oscar coverage later on tonight to find out.

On Friday we bought you galleries of all all the Oscar fashions dating right back to the 1930s, and we’re sure you’ll agree they made for some pretty interesting viewing.

Even if we didn’t always agree with the styles. However, with the 2010 Oscars due to happen in a few hours (well 9 to be precise) we wanted to finish off our mini series where we left off and that’s the best dressed celebrities of the 2009 awards. Many of you will remember at least one or two of the dresses sported by some well known actresses (who can forget Sarah Jessica Parker‘s bridal inspired dress?) and we hope this gallery does its job and reminds you.

However, it wasn’t just Jessica who chose to wear bridal, Penelope Cruz and Miley Cyrus also opted for frocks, which could be mistaken for walking down the aisle with instead of down the red carpet.

And remember keep reading because we’ll be bringing you live coverage as all the red action happens tonight.

As the eras continued, the glitz and the glamour of the Oscars still remained. There was more sparkle, higher heels and lower cleavages.

Some actresses were also that little bit more daring, opting for never been heard of before trouser suits.

However one thing the 60s-80s bought us were amazing stars, such as Bridget Fonda, who began winning Oscar awards in 1970, and Meryl Streep, who still continues to pick up these awards.
