One of the standout dresses on the red carpet last night was the one Charlize Theron chose. But despite all the attention, it has made any of the best-dressed lists today!

The former Oscar-winner has come under fire for her John Galliano for Dior lavender frock with rosette detailing over the bust line. E! said of the gown, "Almost every year somebody wears something off-the-wall crazy to the Oscars, and this year the unfortunate honor goes to Charlize Theron. Yep, those are her lady lumps wrapped in lilac rosettes, courtesy of Dior Haute Couture. This one's going down in the history books along with the swan dresses and pirate costumes."

AOL added, “We can't quit staring, and it pulls away from what we should be looking at: her face.”

The Vancouver Sun commented, “There will lots of giggling in the week to come at Charlize Theron, whose Dior gown had rosettes on the breasts bordering on the burlesque.”

But Charlize didn’t seem put off by the criticism, telling Us Weekly, "I just loved this dress!"

As for Hollyscoop’s take on the gown, we could have done without the Cinnabons, but the shape was great for her. It’s hard for Charlize not to look good, and despite the bad reviews, we saw far worse dresses on the red carpet yesterday than hers!
