  The Look: Cameron Diaz
  
  While the Oscars should be all about movies, let's be honest -- the real competition is on the red carpet. If you've always wanted to own an Oscar-worthy gown, you're in luck. Many designers are in the midst of creating very affordable versions of the very looks you saw on the Oscar red carpet, and although they aren't available for another two months, StyleList has a sneak peek. First up? Cameron Diaz stunned in blush pink Dior by John Galliano's silk taffeta bustier gown.
