Gwyneth Paltrow's daughter will never be short of ideas for her prom-night dress.

For her mother has revealed she has been saving every one of hers since 1992 - even the baby pink gown she wore to receive an Oscar.

And 11-year-old Apple is in line to inherit them all.

Chief among them is the Ralph Lauren dress she wore to the 1999 Academy Awards, the year she sobbed throughout her acceptance speech after winning Best Actress for Shakespeare in Love.

The dress was quickly copied and has been voted one of the greatest Oscar dresses of all time.

Speaking in New York, Paltrow, 43, said: "What's funny is I've been saving my gowns and special things since 12 years before [Apple] was born, so I have everything. I have every Oscar dress."

She has high hopes for the Ralph Lauren dress adding: "Maybe she'll wear it to prom and do a Pretty in Pink thing and resew it and cut it up."

She was referring to the 1986 film in which Molly Ringwald's character cobbles together her own pink gown for her prom.

However, she may have trouble persuading Apple to take her 2002 Oscars dress, a see-through Alexander McQueen number that was likened to goth fashion.
