The Academy Awards ceremony this year revealed a lot of new information fashion fans will gobble up. Robert Downey Jr., for example, showed up in Oliver Peoples Sheldrake glasses with custom blue lenses to deliver his anticipated announcing performance. Dressed in the wacky yet fashionable designs we’ve come to expect and love on Robert, we were a bit surprised by how uncompromisingly he attempted the blue look, complete with tinted shades, bowtie and arm-candy girlfriend in a silver blue dress to match.
Robert Downey Jr. wasn’t the only one rocking blue at this year’s event. Mo’Nique and her hubby Sidney Hicks showed up as a similar blue-tinted duo. Mo’Nique, who won best supporting actress, looked lush in a floor-length blue gown while Sidney rocked Marc Jacobs frames with blue tinting. Mo’Nique is herself a fashionable icon in Hollywood, she and Queen Lativa prove that girls with curves can be just as sexy as their rail-thin counterparts.
These were not the only stars to wear their shades indoors, but they were the two most unique in terms of pushing the envelope on eyewear fashion. From Robert Downey Jr. we expect a certain flamboyant flare with fashion. His appearances after Iron Man, and Sherlock Holmes were fashionably on par with Johnny Depp – something no leading male actor has been able to touch in at least a decade. Depp is the king of forward male fashion, retro eyewear, fun hats and snazzy jackets. Robert now dominates the eyewear and shoe departments, and is going to give Depp a run for his money this year.
