While it is clear that a lot of work and preparation goes into the outfits that nominees wear at the awards, we can’t forget about the glam that goes into these looks. Hair and makeup are just as important as the outfit, in our opinion.

We’ve decided it’s high time that we take a look at the best glam looks of all time at the Oscars.

No glam list would be complete without Miss Hepburn included. Her 1954 glam look was classic as always and showed just how little glam Hepburn needed to be the most beautiful woman in the room.

Barbara Streisand’s 1969 Oscars look one that will always be in our memories because it started a trend of everybody copying her cat-eye, teased bob, and bangs. She became the style icon for the ‘70s.

Lauren Hutton wore a gorgeous mid-length hairstyle that we’ve ever seen at the 1975 Oscars and the best part was that she paired it with a classy and minimalist makeup look that any woman would be able to recreate.

Cher, 1986

Naturally, we had to include Cher’s 1986 Oscars glam in this list because it is one of the gorgeous glams that we have ever seen on her. Her minimalist makeup perfectly set off her over-the-top headpiece.

Looking at this glam now, you realize that there wasn’t much to it. It was a simple blowout and almost no makeup, but the look was gorgeous on Paltrow in 1996 when she paired it with a simple sequined gown.

Reese Witherspoon, 2007

Long blonde hair, complete with bangs and beautiful blue eyes, is a deadly combination on anybody, but on Reese Witherspoon, at the 2007 Oscars, it was gorgeous. The look was effortless while remaining stunning.

Matching your lips to your dress is a smart move, but matching your cat-eye shades to your skin tone is genius. These tricks are why Halle Berry looked even more beautiful than usual on the red carpet at the 2011 Oscars.

Zendaya can do no wrong in our eyes when it comes to glam, and her 2015 glam is proof of that. Her locs paired with fresh makeup, and a glossy nude lip is a testament to the fact that she doesn’t need to be over the top to be striking.

A pixie cut, gold smokey eye, and nude lip would be a gorgeous look on anybody, but on Janella Monae, it is stunning. She wore this look effortlessly, and her soft glam was a perfect contrast to her loud gown.

While some Lady Gaga glam looks have been a little eccentric, this classic updo and subtle makeup were far from any meat dress-esque looks. It was refreshing to see Gaga looking so classically beautiful.
