I finally found a full length picture of Meryl Streep from this year’s Oscars and I just wanted to say that I thought she looked great.

Although she is not a young ingénue by any means, she usually favors fussy, matronly frocks that make her look years older.

However, I think this plum gown with the plunging neckline and full, beaded skirt is a winner. I think the color works wonderfully with her complexion and the cut of the gown is flattering. She also kept her jewelry simple, which accentuated the shape of the gown.

I’ve always been a huge fan of Ms. Streep’s acting ability and flair for accents, but never before have I been a fan of her fashion choices.
