Tonight, even earlier than any winners had been referred to as on stage on the Dolby Theatre, we tracked one of the best, worst, and weirdest seems on the Oscars purple carpet — and gave further factors for something aside from a black mermaid robe. That is Hollywood’s largest night time, in spite of everything! And an opportunity to enter style’s historical past books, alongside Gwyneth Paltrow’s pink taffeta perfection and Halle Berry’s bombshell Elie Saab sheer robe.
Not everybody was judged equally. We maintain the night time’s largest names and prime nominees — together with Emma Stone, Cynthia Erivo, Blackpink’s Lisa, Demi Moore, and Mikey Madison — to a excessive customary. You realize, Timothée Chalamet–stage requirements. Our favourite little red-carpet freak.
To see each single red-carpet look, head over right here.

By no means in one million years did we count on Chalament to indicate up in a butter-yellow leather-based swimsuit, nevertheless it’s actually pleasant. Even when he doesn’t win tonight, this press run cemented him as a real Hollywood star taking part in by his personal guidelines. And no, we don’t assume the pants are too lengthy.

Grande and Schiaparelli couture are a match made in Depraved heaven, channeling classic glamour whereas additionally nodding to Glinda’s signature, voluminous pink robe.

Like Yeoh, Domingo by no means misses. He must be nominated yearly simply to grace the purple carpet together with his presence. Chalamet can’t be the one man out right here giving us some capital-F style.

Okay, bedazzled robes are formally trending. Gomez took hers in a extra Marilyn Monroe, Previous Hollywood path — a tried-and-true components, nevertheless it’s working right here.

Props to Kaling for selecting this feathered silver robe that’s each modern and festive. Does she seem like she’s about to star in a Actual Housewives of Potomac reunion? Not no, however we’re into it.

If another person wore this robe, it will most likely be too boring to say. However that is Miley Cyrus and she or he’s carrying funky mesh gloves and bleached eyebrows, we can’t deny it strikes us.

I’m only a freak, yeah. What else would you put on to an awards present largely devoted to praising your ex-boyfriend?

Is that this groundbreaking? No, nevertheless it’s mesmerizing and a contemporary twist on the sparkly metallic pattern that dominated tonight’s purple carpet seems.

A glance made for Diane Keaton, not a Korean pop star. Factors for risk-taking, although.

Belgian filmmaker Nicolas Keppens, the director of the animated quick Stunning Males, snuck in a plus-one when he confirmed as much as the ceremony with one of many characters from his movie strapped to his chest in a cute pink backpack. Foolish? Sure. Efficient advertising? Completely. Now I actually need to see his stop-motion movie about three balding brothers who journey to Istanbul to get a hair transplant.

Yang’s puffy pink shirt and embroidered leather-based jacket are maybe extra acceptable for the Grammys, however the look is rising on me. Within the absence of a “greatest cosplay of a rustic music star” class, let’s name this one wacky in a great way.

I ponder if this little cat pal met the balding Turkish man doll.
Timothée is pushing sartorial boundaries and also you present up like a Vegas cocktail waitress? I’m simply confused, actually, except her solely aim was to enrage Membership Chalamet.

This isn’t unhealthy, precisely. It’s simply underwhelming in comparison with Stone’s previous seems. She units a excessive bar. Stone received final 12 months and doubtless doesn’t need to pull focus, and we respect that. However there’s quite a lot of sparkly all-over robes on the carpet this 12 months and this one simply doesn’t stack up by comparability.

Mikey, the star that you’re, and but … this look divided the Lower’s Slack channel. However everybody agreed that we anticipated extra from the Anora star. She has fed us so many improbable seems. And within the ruthless world of red-carpet commentating, a meh Mikey Madison look hurts us greater than no matter Scarlett Johansson was doing tonight.

Cruz is at all times on the temper board, however this look is a bit matronly.

What within the Undertaking Runway? Yai deserves higher.

Our favourite creepy uncle normally is aware of learn how to toe the road between cheesy and suave. However this ensemble fell absolutely into the garish class for us.

I left A Full Unknown questioning if Barbaro is probably the most stunning particular person ever to exist, which is why it pains me to position her right here. I select accountable Dior, which had a flop of an evening throughout a number of seems.

That is the Oscars, not promenade! Her Rolex is a pleasant contact, although.
Keep in contact.
