Even if they didn't land on the worst dressed list, some Oscars gowns are shocking for all the wrong reasons. See the 10 most bizarre Oscars dresses of all time.
The Academy Awards red carpet is the most important occasion to look good in Hollywood, but some squander it with some less than flattering outfits. Check out the most memorable bizarre Oscars dresses of all time.
Most Bizarre Oscars Dresses: Tilda Swinton (2008)
Wearing what looks like a snuggie hybrid, Tilda Swinton didn't
please any fashion critics, but won the Academy Awards for Best
Supporting Actress and proudly posed in her unusual gown.
Most Bizarre Oscars Outfits: Vanessa Redgrave (1978)
Another black oddity, Vanessa Redgrave's dress from the year she
won an Academy Award for Julia looks more like a graduation robe
than an actual Oscars gown.
Most Bizarre Oscars Dresses: Cher (1974)
Renowned for her outlandish red carpet outfits, Cher showed up at
the 1974 Academy Awards wearing a beach outfit, perfect for a luau
party, less suitable for the red carpet.
Most Bizarre Oscars Outfits: Diablo Cody (2008)
In an unusual leopard print Christian Dior dress, Diablo Cody
picked up an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay and showed plenty
of skin, including her tattoos.
Most Bizarre Oscars Dresses: Lizzy Gardiner (1995)
Daring experiments at the Academy Awards are more suited for
costume designers than to A-listers, but some are truly out there,
like this dress created from 200 gold American Express Cards.
Most Bizarre Oscars Outfits: Charlize Theron (2010)
Usually praised for her Oscars gowns, Charlize Theron failed to
impress in this Christian Dior dress with embellishments that
highlighted her chest.
Most Bizarre Oscars Dresses: Kim Basinger (1990)
One third jacket, one third cocktail dress and one third Oscars
gown, Kim Basinger's outfit managed to secure a place on the
Oscars' worst dressed for a long time.
Most Bizarre Oscars Outfits: Miley Cyrus (2009)
Wearing Zuhair Murhad, a red carpet darling, Miley Cyrus failed to
impress in her fish-scale silver dress accessorized with a very
high belt.

Keaton has always played with gender roles in her looks, but for
the 2004 Academy Awards she went all out in a pantsuit tuxedo
combination even she couldn't completely pull off.
Most Bizarre Oscars Outfits: Trey Parker and Matt Stone
(2000)
South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone made sure their
first Oscar nomination wouldn't be forgotten. While Stone sported a
replica of Gwyneth Paltrow's 2009 Oscars dress, Parker chose to
wear the Jennifer Lopez look from the 2000 Grammy Awards.
