The 96th Academy Awards at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles was magic. From Cillian Murphy winning Best Actor to Robert Downey Jr getting recognition for his role in Oppenheimer, the night marked many firsts. But what remained a constant at Hollywood’s biggest awards night was the impeccable fashion. Celebrities added stardust to the red carpet, showcasing a dazzling display of their sartorial prowess. From vintage wonders to flowy fits and form-fitting silhouettes, the crème de la crème of Hollywood soared high on the wings of style. Here’s a look at some of the best-dressed stars.

First up, Emily Blunt, in a floating-sleeved strappy champagne-hued Schiaparelli gown, brought the stars down for one night only. Multiple sequins served a glitzy dose of inspiration while the shimmery silver borders contributed to the blingy effect. The flowy train delivered pizzazz to her aesthetically pleasing look.

Hard to beat Florence Pugh’s punk and pretty avatars. Her Oscars wear was proof, yet again. The Midsommar actress struck the perfect balance between sophistication and edge in a Del Core-made sparkly silver gown. The floor-sweeping number came with a structured corset and a swirly hem. Intricately embellished water-droplet-shaped gems dazzled the brightest before the fabric plunged into a slim-fit silk skirt.

Zendaya weaved femininity with chic allure in a Giorgio Armani Privé-tailored metallic pink corset gown. Shimmery black rose adornments on a satin pink base with a single-roped strap wrapped around her shoulder delivered oomph and panache. The gunmetal paillettes and corset embellishments were the X-factor. Retro-themed palm tree designs on the rosey outfit enhanced her pretty avatar.

The 7 Rings singer channelled her inner Glinda energy at the glittery night. Her OOTN featured a cotton-candy pink column gown, taken from the shelves of designer label Giambattista Valli Haute Couture. The strapless outfit displayed ruched patterns through and through. But the OTT magic was brought on by the pillowy and cloud-esque fabric attachments around her waist that cascaded down into a voluminous train.

Charlize Theron’s fashion theory at the Academy Awards night was to deliver maximalism simultaneously with minimalism. Yes, it’s possible. She looked every bit the belle of the ball in a Dior Haute Couture pale, soft metallic pink gown. Twisted fabric accents on the bustier and a similar wrap-around feature on the shoulder, enhanced her stylish flair.

Bringing back the polka-dot trend, Jennifer Lawrence exuded old Hollywood glamour in her first red carpet appearance in six years. She plucked out a custom-made Christian Dior Haute Couture billowing black gown, featuring an ample amount of white polka dots.

The Queen’s Gambit fame marked her presence at the Oscars in a Dior Haute Couture silver-grey ball gown. The strapless silhouette with a structured bodice was reminiscent of the label’s 1949–1950 Fall/Winter collection. Doused with sequins, the gown had a flared skirt, embellished with several layers of glitzy pearl-shaped flaps.

Laverne Cox rested her faith on the gold and black shades of a Mugler creation. While the corset bustier got its shine from the metallic gold shimmers, the cinched black skirt served a dramatic effect through its flowy train. The cape effect came with the mesh black sash hung around her neck.

Presenting a vintage charm, Sandra Huller played muse to Schiaparelli as she put on a customised black velvet gown, previously donned by Millicent Rogers in 1947. The elongated origami-like neckline of the form-fitting outfit mimicked structured wings. Her classic OOTN got its sparkle from the keyhole stone embellishment in the middle.
