We love a good drama, but when it comes to Oscars season, we think the real honour goes to best-dressed movies.
Here are the 10 most stylish films we'll be watching over and over again (and taking outfit inspiration from, too).

My Week with Marilyn
Michelle Williams made the '50s trends in this film appear timeless. Favourite looks included a classic camel coat with a headscarf, pencil skirts effortlessly paired with white blouses and, of course, Marilyn's signature blonde locks.

Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
OK, so we may not run out and pierce our faces, but we're totally into Lisbeth Salander's goth meets punk, I-could-care-less style. The must-have items to recreate the look: combat boots, black leather jacket and, if you're feeling bold enough, cropped bangs.

The Rum Diary
We usually only have eyes for Johnny Depp, but we couldn't get enough of Amber Heard's wardrobe in The Rum Diary. Set in Puerto Rico in the late '50s, Heard has us swooning over her ultra feminine dresses and an amazing white cropped top with matching shorts. And don't even get us started on her makeup and hair. Depp better watch his back.

The Help
Is it just us, or is a pattern starting to emerge? We clearly have a thing for vintage, so it should come as no surprise that The Help was one of our favourites for fashion inspiration. We loved everything from the floral prints to the chic little hats, but we'll politely pass on the bouffant hair.

The Artist
This silent film was a feast for the eyes. The transition from hopeful actress to full-fledged Hollywood star by Bérénice Bejo's character was mirrored perfectly in her wardrobe. Favourite pieces include the beaded flapper dresses and embellished headbands.
Melancholia
2011 was the year of the bride, and while the wedding in Melancholia was certainly not the most joyous of unions, Kirsten Dunst looked out of this world. The layers and layers of tulle on her wedding dress and the rosette shoulders were dreamy and we loved Dunst's elegant twisted updo (take note brides-to-be).
One Day
We weren't initially charmed by Anne Hathaway's wardrobe in One Day (those brutal '80s spectacles should never be resurrected, not even for integrity's sake) but she won us over with her chic, cropped haircut and feminine sun dresses.
Water for Elephants
We'd happily run off and join the circus if it meant getting our hands on Reese Witherspoon's wardrobe.
W.E.
She may have been "the most despised woman in the world," but Wallis Simpson was also quite the trendsetter. We fell madly in love with her figure-flattering wardrobe and loved her bright red lip in the film.
