Hollywood beauties grace the red carpet at 85th Annual Academy Awards Nominees Luncheon at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.

These Hollywood beauties graced the red carpet at the 85^th Annual Academy Awards Nominees Luncheon at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on Monday. Here’s a round-up of these stunning ladies and their spectacular outfits — can’t wait for what they’ll wear on awards night!

Amy Adams

Walking the red carpet for her nomination for Actress in a Supporting Role, Actor Amy Adams looked feminine and graceful in a J Mendel Spring 2013 floral-print violet frock. Her million dollar smile complemented well with her curly auburn hair, tucked on the side. However, the nude pumps she wore to the luncheon looked more chunky than feminine.

Anne Hathaway

Actor Anne Hathaway made an appearance on the red carpet in black attire from head-to-toe. Hathaway, who is nominated for Actress in a Supporting Role as Fantine in Les Miserables, wore a sleek black Resort 2013 dress with a flowing ruffle back.The 30-year-old worked black sandals with her outfit and wore yellow-gold and pavé diamond stud earrings designed by Jamie Wolf. Bracelets and rings by Jennifer Meyer. A pink lipstick completed her less-is-more look.

Naomi Watts

Strutting down the red carpet, The Impossible actor Naomi Watts was dressed in a graceful, black Valentino dress. We totally love her loose, blonde locks, which she swept sideways. Topping off her look, she sported dazzling pink lipstick. Keeping her ensemble simple, she wore nude Paulina pumps.

Helen Hunt

Actor Helen Hunt, nominated for her performance in The Sessions, looked gorgeous in a knee-length Dolce & Gabbana dress. The ruffled dress with a square neckline looked as graceful as Helen usually does. Her classy and elegant outfit was paired with minimal earrings and a bangle. Unfortunately, the strappy Jimmy Choo sandals did not do justice to the dress. Hunt looked radiant, thanks to the subtle and natural make-up she wore.

Jennifer Lawrence

Actor Jennifer Lawrence, nominated for Silver Linings Playbook, looked absolutely elegant in her white Chloé Spring 2013 dress. Among the dark colours and floral prints at the event, the 22-year-old’s outfit was as breath of fresh air. In a strapless, embossed dress, Lawrence had the red carpet sizzling with her nude lips, smokey eyes and half-tied hair.

Jessica Chastain

Competing with Lawrence for Actress in a Leading Role for her movie Zero Dark Thirty, actor Jessica Chastain wore a black Erdem Report outfit with lace sleeves and bright pink and bluish-grey floral embroidery. Matching the petals on her dress, Chastain worked a pink lip and let her red locks loose to pull off this uber chic look. To finish off the look, Chastain wore nude Christian Louboutin pointed pumps — we love ‘em!
