Oscars: The 9 worst dressed

Even before the envelopes were opened at Sunday's Academy Awards, there were clear winners on the red carpet. While most celebs looked stunning, not every star found a place on our best dressed list. The following looks were just a touch off.

1. Dakota Johnson

Johnson's long-sleeve, ecru Gucci with a high neckline is a tad matronly for the starlet.

It's a lot of fabric, in a color that doesn't necessarily flatter the 'Fifty Shades Darker' star's complexion.

2. Blanca Blanco

Perhaps you don't know her name, but you will remember this dress. The actress' number with poufy sleeves, a red belt and a major slit has a lot going on.

Though not nominated for an Oscar, the 'Teen Star Academy' actress could be the winner for highest slit.

3. Felicity Jones

While Jones' glam is on point, the color of the Rogue One: A Star Wars Story star's Dior gown washes her out.

Would've loved the A-line frock in lilac.

4. Leslie Mann

Mann's Zac Posen dress really brightens up the red carpet, but the billowing silhouette overwhelms the How to Be Single actress.

A sleek column shape would've made this look timeless.

5. Olivia Culpo

The good news is Culpo's Marchesa dress brought attention to the global water crisis, the bad news is the black belt was distracting. Culpo told E!'s Ryan Seacrest that the dress is made with pieces from a Stella Artois chalice in partnership with Water.org, which when purchased, provides five years of clean water.

The bad news is the former Miss Universe ended up here.

6. Riz Ahmed

We applaud men who give the Heisman to a basic black tux, but the bright color of this look by Ermenegildo Zegna verges on costume-y.

Sadly, 'The Night Of' actor gives us a touch of the blues.

7. Ava DuVernay

It's so hard to wear slate, and the 13th director nearly pulls it off. However, a warmer shade would've done wonders for this ensemble by Ashi Studio.

One shade of grey.

8. Priyanka Chopra

The fit and pattern of this number by Ralph & Russo are perfection, but this neckline is a tad severe. Rounded edges or a sweetheart neckline would've been better.

The 'Quantico' actress still shines.

9. Ryan Gosling

Hey girls (and guys), placing La La Land's Sebastian on this list hurts us as much as it hurts you. But the ruffled Gucci shirt with contrasting seams is tough to swallow.

Don't be mad at us, Ryan.
