- 68th Annual Academy Awards, 1996<p> Sandra hit the right note in this brown strapless Calvin Klein frock, but the choker and hair are a little too Southern belle prom queen for our tastes.</p>

- 69th Annual Academy Awards, 1997<p> At the Oscars the following year, Bullock shimmered in a plunge-neck Richard Tyler gown. The dress looks great but Sandy still needs to work on the accessories (those shoes!) and on toning down the makeup.</p>

- 55th Annual Golden Globe Awards, 1998<p> This embellished dress has a little too much going on, but it's the matching purse and hideous shoes that make this look a fashion fail.</p>

- All About Steve world premiere, 2009, Hollywood<p> Sandra went daring in this fashion-forward Lanvin mini-dress - shame about the messy hair and shoe-boots.</p>

- 66th Annual Golden Globe Awards, 2009<p> Bullock hones her love of making a dramatic red carpet entrance in a fuss-free gown, like this tiered-ruffle detail frock from Dior.</p>

- 67th Annual Golden Globes, 2009<p> This statement purple dress by Bottega Veneta brings effortless drama to the red carpet. Bullock looks exquisite and walked away with a Golden Globe.</p>

- People's Choice Awards, 2010<p> The actress keeps it low-key in beige Vivienne Westwood and signature straight 'do.</p>
