Red Ben de Lisi dress of Kate Winslet

Kate Winslet wore a red one-shoulder flower strap dress designed by Ben de Lisi at the 74th Academy Awards on March 24, 2002. The shoulder strap, composed of a garland of silk roses, was evocative of Spanish flamenco dancers.[1] In a poll by Debenhams published in The Daily Telegraph the dress was voted the 7th greatest red carpet gown of all time.[2]

Cosmopolitan magazine cited the dress as one of the Best Oscar dresses of all time, saying, "This dress is ultra-flattering on Kate, and it's a great color for her very fair skin and strawberry blond hair. The flowery, embroidered strap is a pretty detail that makes this simple gown fit for the red carpet".[3]
