Golden Globe nominee Natalie Portman is hot favorite to dominate awards season for her role as JFK’s widow in “Jackie” – just as she did back in 2011 for “Black Swan.”
And just as she was back then, she’s pregnant.
That means plenty of opportunities for designers to dress her growing bump with baby number two with husband Benjamin Millipied in a series of red carpet gowns. When she won the Critics’ Choice Award for best actress on Dec. 11, Portman wore an Alexander McQueen red and black embroidered cape dress.

The “Jackie” star isn’t saying how many months along she is – but told Jimmy Fallon recently she’s due “in the spring.” Which means – yes – she will be very pregnant at the Oscars on Feb. 26, 2017, for which her nomination is surely in the bag.

Even if she doesn’t win every acting prize this awards season, she’ll certainly take plenty of best dressed awards as looking great in a gown is a lot harder when you’re pregnant. But Natalie and her stylist Kate Young have a track record of always pulling off red carpet home runs – pregnant or not.
Here’s ENTITY’s rating of Natalie’s best red carpet looks from her previous awards season pregnancy five years ago.
Some thought this pink satin strapless Grecian wrap dress by Viktor & Rolf with folds and rosettes – red on pink – was a bit over the top – but we thought it was gutsy – and gorgeous.
As her belly grew more prominent, Natalie got better playing to her strengths – toned arms and shoulders, great decollete’, and a slit up the front of this purple silk Rodarte gown that shows off her legs.
How simple is this white Grecian silk column gown by Gianfranco Ferre’ – with a thick black ribbon trim at the bust and one thick shoulder strap? Simple – and perfect.
Natalie went even simpler at the Screen Actors Guild Awards – a strapless white column with crystal beading at the best – by Azzaro. Whether she goes full color – or white or black – semi-loud to super quiet – it works.
