Breaking a tradition since 1961, the Oscars theme was a champagne hue instead of the classic red. Critics may have been divided on the change, but the stars outdid themselves in high-fashion couture, from delightful rosette accents to ethereal white gowns. Lady Gaga turned heads in a jaw-dropping Versace creation; Rihanna made a statement with her Eagles t-shirt and a sultry Alaïa midriff-baring dress, while Nicole Kidman sizzled in an Armani ensemble adorned with sequined flowers and a daring thigh-high slit. Here are the most fashionable Celebrities at the Oscars.

Rosettes are a ubiquitous sight on the red carpet, including the Oscars champagne carpet, but Nicole Kidman managed to make them appear fresh and alluring rather than mundane. The Armani Privé gown adorned with rosettes seemed to blossom off her shoulder and at the top of her skirt. It seemed intimate and warm, like a fresh bouquet. Kidman exuded a remarkable sense of confidence, evident in her poised demeanor. 

2. Lady Gaga

Lady Gaga’s stunning Versace dress was recently showcased at Donatella Versace’s fall 2023 runway show in Los Angeles and was previously modeled by Gigi Hadid. Despite Gaga’s penchant for red-carpet theatrics, her stunning attire this time spoke for itself. Her natural beauty was on full display, and the dress perfectly complemented her vibrant personality without requiring any additional embellishments.

As expected, Gaga’s signature flair was still evident with the surprise low-cut back, which playfully revealed a glimpse of skin and embodied her cheeky style. This playful detail added a touch of fun and glamour without the need for a large entourage on the red carpet.

3. Michelle Yeoh

Michelle Yeoh is a true red-carpet chameleon, defying convention by experimenting with different styles and constantly reinventing herself. While many celebrities adopt a fixed aesthetic for their Oscars campaign, Yeoh fearlessly steps outside her comfort zone and always tries something new. For the recent ceremony, she opted for an angelic look in a Dior Couture gown that resembled a wearable cloud, beautifully accessorized with a tiara-like headband.

This stunning outfit seems like the kind of dress we might have imagined ourselves wearing when we were young, daydreaming about being all “grown up.” It’s fitting that Yeoh made history in this dress, decades after what some in the industry would mistakenly view as her “prime.” Her Oscars moment, embodied by this dress, feels like a childhood dream come true.

Michelle Williams stunned in an ethereal Chanel couture gown that evoked a heavenly presence, with a forward-falling cape that draped over her figure. The result was a snowstorm of glistening sequins, crafting a fantastical and ethereal visual sensation. This particular look elevated her to a higher realm of enchanting allure. She exuded the aura of a living Degas masterpiece, animated by a breathtaking haute couture dress that emphasized her graceful features.

Tems made a bold fashion statement in a Lever Couture hooded gown, featuring a design resembling a swirling smoke trail. The dress was a work of art meant to be admired from all angles, with tulle around her cheeks, shoulders, and hair. While Williams and Yeoh channeled angelic vibes, Tems embodied the very essence of heaven itself with her cloudy, feathery, landscape-inspired dress. She exuded a serene yet powerful energy that captivated everyone’s attention.

6. Rihanna

Rihanna never fails to make a statement, even when it comes to the Oscars red carpet. Rumor had it that she arrived wearing an Eagles T-shirt and a sequined hat so large it could barely fit through the door. But instead of disappointing us with her absence, she made a grand entrance fashionably late in a stunning belly-baring Alaïa gown. The dress displayed excellence in every aspect, featuring bold thigh-high slits and leather accents gracefully draping around her neck and chest, accentuating her waist. Rihanna appeared utterly stunning, exuding self-assurance and sophistication with each stride she took.

7. Cara Delevingne

While many guests played it safe with black or white ensembles, Delevingne stole the show in a deep, romantic red gown. The oversized rose detail on her shoulder was a bold choice but not overpowering. The gown draped at her hips in a theatrical manner. Delevingne isn’t only a symbol of style but also a genuine supermodel radiating an inescapable aura. Her remarkable attributes and self-assured attitude were simply unignorable, establishing her as an undeniable powerhouse. Through this emergence, Cara Delevingne solidified her position as a style icon, possessing an everlasting appeal.

8. Malala Yousafzai

Malala Yousafzai, the educational activist, made a stunning Oscars debut as an executive producer of the short film “Stranger at the Gate”. She arrived on the Champagne carpet early, making a grand entrance in a silver sequined Ralph Lauren hooded gown that set an impossibly high standard. The gown flawlessly complemented Yousafzai’s commanding presence, resonating with her inherent strength and influence. The shimmering sequins on the dress mirrored her unwavering resilience, amplifying her radiance on the grandest evening in Hollywood.

Michael B. Jordan, who was presenting at the Oscars ceremony, arrived on the Champagne carpet looking sharp and stylish in his custom-made Louis Vuitton double-breasted tuxedo with a satin lapel. He opted for a classic black bow tie and shoes to complement his ensemble. However, he didn’t shy away from adding a pop of color to his outfit through his jewelry choices. Jordan sported two of Tiffany & Co.’s Bird on a Rock Brooches on his suit’s lapel. One showcased a pink morganite stone, while the other presented a green tourmaline. Both brooches had diamond birds resting atop them, contributing an extra hint of elegance to his already dazzling ensemble.

Not stopping there, the 35-year-old actor also wore diamond studs, a diamond tennis bracelet, and a diamond ring, all from Tiffany & Co. The subtle glimmer of his jewelry perfectly complemented his attire, making him stand out on the red carpet. To complete the look, he wore a stainless steel watch with a black strap, adding a touch of sophistication to his already elegant outfit. Overall, Michael B. Jordan’s stylish ensemble was a perfect blend of classic and modern fashion that showcased his impeccable taste.

 

The Oscars red carpet was a celebration of fashion, with stars dazzling in stunning couture. From Nicole Kidman’s alluring rosette-adorned Armani ensemble to Lady Gaga’s jaw-dropping Versace dress, the red carpet was a sight to behold.
