The Oscars: 5 Best Dressed Baby Bumps of All Time

By Terri Seymour

Filming for “EXTRA” this awards season while pregnant has really made me appreciate that it’s not easy to dress a bump for the red carpet!  But, these stars managed to play off their baby bumps with such ease and grace on the biggest night in Hollywood. What an inspiration for mums-to-be, like me.

All-Time Best Bump Style on The Oscar's Red Carpet

  • Natalie Portman

    Natalie Portman glowed from head to toe at the 2011 Oscars. That year, she was pregnant with son Aleph and she won best actress for Black Swan! The color of her Rodarte gown was stunning against her olive skin tone.

  • Paula Patton

    Good for the beautiful Paula Patton who didn't shy away from color when she was expecting son Julian. Here she is in a bright tangerine Carolina Herrera gown at the 2010 Oscars. She wore her bump loud and proud!

  • Jessica Alba

    Jessica Alba has always managed to look effortlessly beautiful on the red carpet (here, she was expecting her oldest daughter Honor). She may not have been nominated at the 2008 Academy Awards but her deep plum feathered Marchesa gown was a real winner!

  • Georgina Chapman

    Georgina Chapman, actress and co-founder of Marchesa, always looks lovely. Even when she was eight months pregnant with her son Dashiell, she managed to rock the red carpet in a floor length dress of her own design at the 2013 Oscars.

    I love this picture of Meryl...Talk about glowing! In 1983, she wore this stunning haute gold Lanvin gown -- and won the best actress Oscar for Sophie's Choice. Everything about this moment is utterly timeless, from the golden dress to the golden Academy Award to her radiant smile. (Daughter Mamie was born the following August.)
