"  Have you ever fantasized about what you would wear to the Oscars, if given the opportunity? I have. Many times. I&amp;#039;m always torn between going the princess route (think Gwyneth Paltrow in Ralph Lauren in 1999, the year she won), or the avant-garde/fashion-forward route (Gwyneth Paltrow in Alexander McQueen in 2002, the year the critics slammed her goth look). Since I don&amp;#039;t have to worry about such decisions, my thoughts turn to those who actually do\u2014Angelina, Penelope, Kate, and Anne. Will they choose something from the spring `09 runway (my picks for the big night below: Carolina Herrera&amp;#039;s ruffled gown in the color du jour, Lanvin&amp;#039;s short and sweet pink stunner, and Yves Saint Laurent&amp;#039;s angelic white look), or a style straight off the fall `09 catwalk (New York fashion week ends two days before this year&amp;#039;s Oscars)? Click here for similar spring styles from Roksanda Ilincic and Temperley London, online now. And tell me, which designer would you choose to wear?  \u2014Violet Moon Gaynor   Photos: Imaxtree "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
