An Ode To Cher's Unbeatable Oscars Style

New decade, new Bob Mackie style. For her first Oscars appearance of the '80s, Cher traded in her belly-baring looks of the past for a long-sleeve, full-length gow. Don't worry though, it was still see-through.

The following year, Cher hit the 46th Academy Awards in another Bob Mackie-designed look that showed off her killer abs. This time, the singer opted for a coordinating top and skirt made out of a colourful, thin fabric that some may consider a beach sarong. For Cher, however, it was transformed into eveningwear when paired with an ornate flower headpiece and choker. Don't forget the matching eye shadow and nails. Photo: Getty

5 Years later, Cher made her return to the awards show in a gold, jewel-encrusted Bob Mackie look, hoop earrings, pink dagger nails and abs that could rule their own country. She wasn't even nominated for an award, but she still won the whole damn show. Photo: Getty

For her first Oscars appearance, Cher attended alongside Sonny Bono in a pink and metallic satin gown. To take it up a notch, the singer subtly braided some pink and gold fabric into her hair to match the dress. Photo: Getty

The legend then showed up to an after party that same year in the most bedazzled jeans you have ever seen, a sequin top, bejeweled pumps and denim jacket just to remind us all she's still Queen of the Oscars. Photo: Getty

Have you ever seen anyone wear a hip chain with a giant cross? Didn't think so. Cher entered the new millennium unveiling another new look at the Oscars. this time, it was darker and there was even Medusa-inspired hair included and of course, she totally nailed it. Photo: Getty

Going for another headpiece look, Cher shut down the '98 Oscars in a nude see-through dress and matching choker. Photo: Getty

"Do you believe?" CAUSE I DO NOT. The Academy asked Cher to present the award for Best Supporting Actor this year and boy, did she show up to present. She stole the red carpet in a Bob Mackie headpiece and black jewel-encrusted look that deserved an Oscar in its own right. Photo: Getty

In her first year as an official Oscar nominee, Cher showed up for the occasion in a sparkling naked dress designed by none other than Bob Mackie. She accessorized the look with dangling diamond earrings and boyfriend Val Kilmer.
