The Oscars is the pinnacle of Hollywood’s awards season, and thus the A-listers in attendance typically save their best looks for last. On Sunday, the stars did not disappoint.<\/p>\n
As the guests filed into the Dolby Theatre, a few trends emerged: lots of understated white, silver and cream gowns; loose flowing hair; dresses with trains; and a few excellent pops of color.<\/p>\n
Here are some key looks from the Oscars red carpet:<\/p>\n
Muted elegance <\/p>\n
For the first time in decades, Oscars organizers changed the red carpet to a champagne hue. And the stars responded by bringing an ethereal lightness to their frocks, many of them in white, cream or silver.<\/p>\n
Michelle Yeoh, the star of frontrunner “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” wowed in a floating white sleeveless Dior gown, her long hair flowing in loose curls \u2014 a look seen all over the carpet \u2014 and topped with a bejeweled headband.<\/p>\n
“This was the perfect opportunity to show that moms are superheroes,” Yeoh told ABC of her film.<\/p>\n
Jamie Lee Curtis, nominated for best supporting actress for her work alongside Yeoh, rocked a sleek glittering long-sleeved off-white column gown from Dolce & Gabbana, perfectly setting off her cropped white hair.<\/p>\n
Presenter Florence Pugh, who has been shutting down red carpets for months with quirk and swagger, pushed the sartorial envelope in a Valentino gown that was all voluminous creamy taffeta on top \u2014 and then slit extra high to reveal a black miniskirt.<\/p>\n
And Nobel peace laureate Malala Yousafzai, the executive producer of Oscar-nominated documentary short “Stranger at the Gate,” wore a sequined silver hooded Ralph Lauren gown that was ruched at the waist.<\/p>\n
Candy-colored glam <\/p>\n
Pink, purple, yellow \u2014 Curtis’ fellow nominees in the best supporting actress category brought a rainbow of hues to the Academy Awards.<\/p>\n
Angela Bassett, whose turn as Queen Ramonda in “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” could make her the first actor in a Marvel film to win an Oscar, slayed in an amethyst Moschino gown with a bow neckline, a train… and lots of diamonds.<\/p>\n
She paid tribute on the red carpet to nominated costume designer Ruth Carter, saying she felt “that sense of royalty spring up,” telling ABC: “And it really helped to get me there in terms of the performance.”<\/p>\n
Hong Chau, who earned a nod for her work opposite Brendan Fraser in “The Whale,” oozed sophistication in a cotton candy pink sleeveless Prada gown, with a Mandarin collar and an unusual fringed black train.<\/p>\n
“Everything Everywhere All at Once” star Stephanie Hsu floated down the carpet at the Dolby Theatre in a strapless bubble gum pink Valentino number with a full ball skirt, her hair cascading down in soft waves.<\/p>\n
And Irish actress Kerry Condon, who shared the big screen with Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson in “The Banshees of Inisherin,” donned a lemon yellow one-shoulder Versace gown \u2014 and another train, a definite Oscars trend.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s hear it for the boys <\/p>\n
For years, the men of Hollywood were a bit of an afterthought on red carpets \u2014 tuxedo, rinse, repeat. But no longer.<\/p>\n
“Everything Everywhere” star Harry Shum Jr embraced his Asian heritage with a white dinner jacket with midnight piping and coordinated belted sash. And for his “Glee” fans, he danced a bit on the red carpet.<\/p>\n
And “Elvis” star Austin Butler wore a Saint Laurent tuxedo fit for a king \u2014 though definitely a bit more traditional than his other awards season looks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
