American actress Uma Thurman wore a Prada dress in lavender (lilac) chiffon to the 67th Academy Awards on March 27, 1995, at which she was nominated for Best Supporting Actress for Pulp Fiction.[1][2] The dress was designed by American designer Barbara Tfank.[3]
The dress was well-received by contemporary critics, and in retrospect is considered one of Thurman's most memorable red carpet looks.[3] Variety magazine's 2003 Complete Book of Oscar Fashion described it as "the gown that launched a thousand imitations"; and indeed, a year later, Nicole Kidman wore a Prada dress of an identical colour at the 68th Academy Awards.[4]
