Oscar winner Kate Winslet already made one worst dressed list - her daughter's!

After being named best actress on Sunday, she phoned her children backstage. Her 8-year-old daughter, Mia, couldn't get over Winslet's Yves St. Laurent asymmetric evening gown.

Look back at Kate Winslet's red carpet outfits over the years

"I said, 'Hi, Mia, did you jump up and down?'" she said on The Oprah Winfrey Show Monday. "[Mia] says: 'Yes, I did, Mum, I did. I need to talk to you about the dress it was gray.' She was absolutely mortified I wore a gray dress."

See what stars wore to the Oscars!

Winslet told Winfrey she didn't want a lot of dresses being sent to her.

"I think in this time in the economy, it's just not nice to have people make lots of dresses and you just wear one out of a possible five," she said. "So Yves St. Laurent very kindly said, 'We'd like to make something for you,' and that was what we did."

Getting on stage to accept her Oscar was "an out-of-body experience."

Added the actress, "You just think, 'This can't be happening.'"

Now she can't stop staring her her statue.

"Isn't he cute?" she asked Winfrey as she held her Oscar. "I keep sort of looking at him and looking at every little piece. Very nice bottom."

Winslet said you won't be seeing that much of her on the big screen from now on.

"I have done quite a lot of nudity, and I feel like my kids they're 8 and 5 now maybe they're going to start to become aware of the amount of nudity I've done," she says. "I just sort of feel like I can't get away with it that much longer."
