BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. -- Nine fashion designers need your help to make their Oscar dreams a reality.

The Academy says Oscar fans again will select the dress to be worn by a trophy model during the awards telecast. Nine designers showed off their gown contestants during a recent fashion show at the film academy in Beverly Hills. Fans can see the dresses at Oscar.com and cast one vote each day until Monday. The winning gown and model wearing it will appear onstage at the Oscars.

The Academy Awards are Feb. 27 at the Kodak Theatre and are televised live on ABC.
