Natalie Portman, who looked adorable and, let's be honest, barely pregnant at the Globes, will be in full-blown mama-to-be mode in February. Will the Black Swan star be up to the fashion challenge of dressing a larger belly?
And then there's glamour gal and Best Actress nominee Nicole Kidman—we're as excited to see what she wears as to hear about her new baby. Supporting Actress contender Helena Bonham Carter's sure to bring the weird factor. And newbie Hailee Steinfeld's got everyone guessing about her wardrobe since the True Grit star's stunning Globes outing in a spot-on Marchesa gown.
