Academy Awards: White Ties

     The men of the 83rd annual Academy Awards have made many fashion faux pas this evening. The first round was shown when both Jude Law and Robert Downey Jr. presented the award for Film Editing and Visual Effect in matching white ties. The Oscars is a black tie event, the men shouldn't stray from the dress code. Jude Law is wearing a traditional Gucci tuxedo with a bow tie and Robert Downey Jr. is wearing a less traditional take on the white tie in a navy Tom Ford suit.
