Oscar Bump Watch: Cate Blanchett

Bump grade?  A+

Dress grade?  Indecision reigns!  We're digging the gold beads and malachite neck bit.  We think the color is quite royal.  We're less than thrilled, however, with the length (too short, right?) and the embroidery near the bottom (giving it that not-sought-after tablecloth look).  Whatever.  She is a beautiful lady.  Look at that skin!  Flawless.

What do you think?  Compare Cate's look at this year's Oscars to her appearance yesterday at the Independent Spirit Awards and to her (in our opinion) immaculate style at last year's AA's.  All of this in the gallery!
