Feb. 17, 2014 -- Talk about a custom fit!

Oprah Winfrey attended the British Academy of Film and Television Arts awards in a Stella McCartney gown, but to make sure it fit her perfectly, she was stitched into it just before the show began.

"There's an hour to go," she said in the funny video. "Hello, Stella McCartney!"

Though Winfrey, who received a best supporting actress nod for her role in "The Butler", lost to Jennifer Lawrence, it was clear she had a fun evening.

"Party over Here! With Michael Fassbender and Emma Thompson. #BAFTAs," she wrote, alongside this portrait with her fellow actors.

Don't expect to see too much more of Winfrey this awards season, however: She did not receive an Oscar nomination, to the surprise of many.
