Strong silhouettes black sparkles dominate Oscars red carpet

Oscars red carpet dazzles with strong silhouettes, sparkles, and pink; stars break tradition with unique fashion choices and political statements.

The Oscars red carpet was a dazzling display of fashion and style, with celebrities showcasing bold silhouettes, shimmering fabrics, and pops of Barbie-inspired pink. Nominees like Sandra Huller, Eva Longoria, and Rita Moreno stunned in black gowns with dramatic necklines, while Cynthia Erivo turned heads in a green gown with cap sleeves and a flowing train.

According to Adam Glassman, the creative director at O Magazine, black was a dominant trend at the event, along with shimmer and shine. Emma Stone opted for a light green ensemble with a flared bodice, while America Ferrera wowed in a sparkly pink form-fitting gown.

Many attendees embraced classic old Hollywood glamour, with elegant and sophisticated looks. Midnight blue was a popular choice among women, with stars like Lily Gladstone, Annette Bening, and Jodie Foster rocking the hue. Da'Vine Joy Randolph stood out in a light blue gown with feathery sleeves after winning the best supporting actress Oscar.

Some men also made bold fashion statements, with Colman Domingo sporting a silver button tuxedo and Ryan Gosling and Bradley Cooper opting for suits without ties. Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson turned heads in a teal shiny suit, breaking away from the traditional black tuxedo.

A few women chose to wear pantsuits, including Justine Triet, the best director nominee for "Anatomy of a Fall," who dazzled in a suit adorned with sparkly lines. Red pins calling for a ceasefire in Gaza were a notable accessory on the carpet, worn by Billie Eilish, Finneas O'Connell, and Mark Ruffalo.

Members of the Osage Nation, who performed the nominated best song from "Killers of the Flower Moon," added a touch of cultural flair to the event in colorful tribal dress. Overall, the Oscars red carpet was a showcase of diverse and stunning fashion choices that left a lasting impression on viewers.
