Vanessa Hudgens stands still for the dress stylist in Beverly Hills

Just a few alterations! Vanessa Hudgens stands still for the dress stylist in Beverly Hills as countdown to Oscars fun begins

Vanessa Hudgens can certainly rock a form-fitting gown, and with The Oscars and the parties mere days away she was wise to plan ahead.

The 27-year-old Grease: Live star was pretty and practically minded as she headed to a dress fitting in Beverly Hills on Monday.

Vanessa was wearing a burgundy backless sundress with halter neckline and flaring below-the-knee skirt as she arrived to the posh location.

As fittings can take a while, Vanessa also made sure she took out plenty of money for the meter from her large tote bag.

The star wore her hair in a simple chic bob and, once inside, placed her dark shades on top of her head.

Vanessa was the picture of patience as she stood still while the stylist took her measurements with cloth tape for the necessary alternations.

Her make-up was heavy on the eye-liner and shadows, and lipstick in a dark and dramatic red tied in with the dress' colour.

While Vanessa has yet to disclose her plans for this year's Oscars night, the Spring Breakers star did attend Elton John's post Oscars bash in 2014 - and she looked fabulous in a metallic gold strapless gown.

Vanessa, who earned rave reviews for her performance as Rizzo in the live television production of Grease on January 31, lost her father to stage 4 cancer the night before she went on stage.

The former Disney star took to Twitter to reveal the sad news.

'I am so sad to say that last night my daddy, Greg passed away from stage 4 cancer. Thank you to everyone who kept him in your prayers,' Vanessa wrote.

Her Grease: Live cast mate, Jordan Fisher, told People recently how Vanessa went on with the show 'like a champ' so soon after her dad's death.

'She handled it like a champ. We're all very proud of her,' Jordan said.

He added: 'It's never going to be easy and that's the kind of thing that you can't really prepare for regardless of how long the process it. But she's great.'
