"I was thrilled and honored to get another call from Meryl," the Project Runway designer told the publication.  Soon, he found himself working alongside the Best Actress nominee in order to create her gown.

Their efforts really did pay off, as the It's Complicated star received rave reviews for her Oscars outfit.  She was decked in elegant white, which certainly made Meryl Streep one of the most stylish actresses of the evening.

"She was dying to wear two matching Fred Leighton Art Deco black and diamond bracelets, and wanted something white and Old Hollywood glamour to go with them," Chris March explained.  "Her only requirement was a fabulously plunging neckline."

Taking the star's ideas into account, the Project Runway designer set off to get to work.  Dressing Meryl Streep for the Oscars was already quite an honor for him, but the respect and admiration he incurred for that were definitely a plus.

"I worked on a classic but modernized silhouette [and] I think we really knocked it out of the park; between the hair, makeup, jewelry and the dress she is all over (and deservedly so!) the Best Dressed Lists," March went on.  "She is an absolute jewel!"

After all their brainstorming, everything really worked out in the end.  Chris March's first red carpet dress is already a success, so we can't help but hope he'll be back for more next year.  When someone like Meryl Streep has been your client, you can only expect to get even busier.
