'Old Hollywood glamour' ruling the night so far, unsurprisingly. Jessica Chastain, an early arrival, looking incredible in a bedazzled, nude strapless custom Armani with Harry Winston jewels.

Quvenzhane Wallis (whose name I just had to Google for spelling) is in Armani, too. Armani Bambini?

by Tiyana Grulovic 2/24/2013 11:34:31 PM
Reese presenting, I presume? We've about had it with fishtail hems, right,Tiyana?

by Maggie Wrobel 2/24/2013 11:34:39 PM
Sigh, yes. No more mermaids, Hollywood!

On the subject of men, what do we think of Eddie?

by Tiyana Grulovic 2/24/2013 11:36:37 PM
Channing's pregant wife looking amazing in embroidered black gown but nevermind all that here's Eddie Redmayne!

by Maggie Wrobel 2/24/2013 11:37:00 PM
Liam Lacey just told us that the red carpet walk is 45 - 90 minutes long! In all those mermaid tails, no less.

by Tiyana Grulovic 2/24/2013 11:37:32 PM
Burberry, I presume?

Mad underrated Brit Les Miserables star Samatha Barks (Eponine) very, very charming on the carpet.

by Maggie Wrobel 2/24/2013 11:41:41 PM
Maggie, yes, Eddie is the face of Burberry, so easy to assume he's representin' on the carpet

by Tiyana Grulovic 2/24/2013 11:41:44 PM
Below we've got Kristin Chenoweth, current star of The Good Wife and keeper of secrets about tonight's shady show-ending musical performance.
