Because we can hardly wait to see what dresses come down the red carpet at the Oscars, we're taking a look back some of the best moments from the award show in recent years. It's one of the most important fashion events of the year, and anticipation for what the stars will wear has been building for months. Will Jennifer Lawrence wear Dior again? Who will land the coveted job of dressing Lupita Nyong'o? And perhaps most importantly, how will Kerry Washington dress her baby bump?

To tide you over until Sunday's big show, take a look back at what some of our favorite stars have worn in years past.
