Oscar Week: If frocks could talk

Nathalie Atkinson fantasizes about infamous dresses and their imaginary Academy Award acceptance speeches

Oscar night has several constants: ridiculous fashion, long-winded speeches, unfunny jokes and endless montages. Surprisingly, the offenses committed at this year’s awards were less egregious than in Oscars past – in fact, a few moments were, dare we say, kind of enjoyable. But even with the better-than-usual antics this year, the night was filled with both good moments and bad. Take a look the best and worst moments from the 82nd annual Academy Awards.

  • Here in North America Audi lovers can have an A3, A4, A5, A6, A8 and soon an A7 four-door coupe, but they can’t get their hands on the most fuel efficient Audi of all, the A1. One look at Audi’s smallest might have you wishing that the cute little go-getter were on sale here, especially when factoring in the high cost of fuel. Cuurently, the A3 is Audi’s smallest entry in our market, and an excellent little luxury hauler it is, plus extremely fuel-friendly in clean diesel guise.
