Every so often, the back of a red carpet dress stuns us more than the front. This happened not once, but several times at the 2018 Oscars. From Kelly Ripa's rainbow Christian Siriano gown to Saoirse Ronan's Calvin Klein by Appointment dress, the back of their ensembles captured and held our attention. These women were only a handful, however, who made us look back on it — literally. Ahead, see the gowns that definitely deserve a second glance from behind.
