Well, now we can - Saturday evening, we caught Renee trying on the gorgeous Carolina Herrerra gown she wore to the Oscars!

After getting herself together, Renee spent a few minutes taking her new dress for a test-stroll around the store while the employees gawked in wonder.

We gotta chime in with our approval too - after all, girlfriend looked fierce on the red carpet!
