Oscars 2012 Fashion: Celebrity Red Carpet Looks for Less

The 84th Academy Awards were a snooze-fest. But the fashions were fab. And Los Angeles-based evening wear line Dalia MacPhee has already created versions of some of the night's most stunning looks-for-less ($300 and up), available at Nordstrom and Neiman Marcus stores nationwide.

If you adore Michelle Williams' coral/burnt orange Louis Vuitton gown (left photo) like I did (she was Everything She Wants' best dressed pick), you'll love this similar, regal dress in red.

The peplum is the signature style of the season, and Tina Fey (left photo) looked better than ever in her custom-made, dark blue gown by Carolina Herrera. You can copy the funny girl's winning style in this violet version.

I love a red head in red, and Emma Stone (left photo) dazzled in her chic Giambattista Valli gown. You too can be a lovely lady in red, minus the Valli frock's beautiful bow.

Cameron Diaz (left photo) is always red-carpet ready, and this year the sun-kissed star was easy, breezy and beautiful in a nude Gucci dress. Get the look-for-less in Dalia MacPhee's romantic, ruffled gown.
