The Oscars red carpet always delivers a mix of classic glamour and personal style. This year, sleek silhouettes, sparkling embellishments, and a noticeable number of feathered gowns stood out among the evening’s arrivals.
From romantic ballgowns to modern tailoring, these were some of the looks that caught our attention.
Rose Byrne
Nominated for “If I Had Legs I’d Kick You,” Rose Byrne arrived in a black custom Dior gown by Jonathan Anderson embroidered with an intricate floral pattern. Styled with Taffin jewelry, the look felt chic and timeless, an example of how simplicity and thoughtful detail can carry a look.
Kate Hudson
Nominated for “Song Sung Blue,” Kate Hudson stepped onto the carpet in Armani Privé wearing a sculpted strapless dress in a pale sea-glass green.
The densely embellished crystals make the dress, giving the surface a soft, light-catching texture, while the sharp peplum at the waist adds structure to the otherwise sleek silhouette. Styled with Garatti jewelry, the look felt fresh with an almost mermaid-like, ethereal quality.
Demi Moore
Demi Moore arrived in Gucci, wearing a striking feathered gown in deep emerald and black. The bodice was covered in layered, scale-like embellishments that gradually gave way to sweeping feathers along the skirt and neckline, creating a dramatic, almost bird-like silhouette.
Styled with Boucheron jewelry, the look leaned into the evening’s feather trend while still feeling elegant and commanding on the carpet.
Nicole Kidman
Nicole Kidman arrived in yet another feathered gown, wearing a strapless Chanel dress with a crystal-embellished bodice and a soft feathered peplum at the waist.
The fitted skirt flowed into delicate feather details toward the hem, giving the look movement while keeping the silhouette sleek. Styled with Chanel jewelry and an Omega watch, the look elegantly leaned into one of the night’s defining trends.
Elle Fanning
First-time Oscar nominee Elle Fanning looked almost princess-like in a Givenchy gown by Sarah Burton.
The strapless dress featured a fitted, crystal-embellished bodice that opened into a full tulle skirt scattered with delicate floral appliqués, giving the look a soft, romantic feel. A striking Cartier necklace dating back to 1903 added a touch of old-Hollywood glamour.
