Gowns to Gables: Oscars 2020
Updated: Feb 11, 2020
Oh this is a fun one! If you didn't already know, The English Room (interior designer Nancy Hollingsworth Phillips) does a dress to room pairings where she takes photos of gowns worn at Hollywood awards shows and pairs them with the equivalent room. (Here are her 2020 Oscar pairings).
Last year, after seeing the lovely and talented Jason Momoa on the red carpet, I was inspired by The English Room to do the same type of pairing but with architecture instead of interiors. I only ran it on my Instagram stories but it was a big hit (Last years nominees, for those who missed it, are below). And these are super fun to do so...here are this year's nominees!
