On Sunday, Hollywood’s biggest stars celebrated the 96th annual Academy Awards at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.
Celebrities walked the red carpet in eye-catching ensembles. Some stars wore dramatic ball gowns while others rocked bold suits.
Business Insider rounded up the best looks from the night.
Vanessa Hudgens
Hudgens revealed her pregnancy for the first time publicly on the red carpet, wearing a black turtleneck couture gown by Vera Wang that showed her baby bump. She accessorized with diamond jewelry.
Brittany Snow
Snow, who starred in the Oscar-nominated short film “Red, White and Blue,” attended her first Oscars in a custom strapless yellow dress by Mônot and a beaded chain necklace.
Emma Stone
Stone walked the red carpet in a strapless, mint gown that popped thanks to an oversized peplum on the structured bodice. A subtle pattern covered the dress, adding dimension to the look designed by Louis Vuitton, which she paired with a 30-carat diamond necklace.
America Ferrera
Ferrera channeled the “Barbie” movie in a shimmering pink chain-mail look by Versace.
Anya Taylor-Joy
Taylor-Joy’s cream, strapless dress from Christian Dior was covered in beading. Textured, scallops of fabric made up the skirt, and more embellishments sat atop the voluminous fabric.
E!’s “Live From E!” reported that the dress, which Taylor-Joy said was inspired by Sandro Botticelli’s The Birth of Venus painting, took 6,000 hours to complete, including 3,500 hours of embroidery work.
Issa Rae
Rae told E!’s red-carpet host Laverne Cox she wore a deep-green outfit for good luck ahead of St. Patrick’s Day. Rae’s daring gown, a custom design by AMI Paris, also featured a plunging neckline and high slit.
Simu Liu
Liu added a touch of sparkle to his black Fendi tuxedo with a silver brooch.
Scott Evans
Evans walked the red carpet in a powder-blue, double-breasted jacket and white pants with a flowing train. His white shoes and delicate necklaces completed the look.
Zuri Hall
Hall’s gold dress, designed by Rony Abou Hamdan Couture, featured rose detailing and a dramatic train.
Maitreyi Ramakrishnan
The “Never Have I Ever” star wore a black Zuhair Murad dress with white detailing at the bodice, a large bow at the hip, and a thigh-high slit.
Jack Quaid
Quaid accessorized his eggplant double-breasted tuxedo with a black bowtie, black watch, and black patent-leather shoes.
Eugene Lee Yang
Yang’s red two-piece look — the same color as the famous carpet — featured a structured jacket and voluminous skirt.
Sandra Hüller
Hüller’s winged eyeliner matched the bold shoulder pieces on her custom black Schiaparelli gown. She paired the dress, featuring a silver keyhole on the bodice, with jewelry from Cartier.
Gabrielle Union-Wade and Dwyane Wade
Union-Wade wore a dazzling silver Carolina Herrera ensemble with Tiffany & Co jewelry. She told E! red-carpet host Laverne Cox that Union’s top is a stand-alone dress, but the actress had the idea to combine it with the skirt.
Wade’s white tuxedo with black lapels was custom-made by Atelier Versace.
Kirsten Dunst
Dunst’s form-fitting white Gucci gown featured a square neckline, thin straps, and a low back. Her side-swept hair gave the look an old Hollywood feel.
Lupita Nyong’o
Nyong’o’s Armani Privè was actually designed for the star to wear in 2020, E! reported, but she didn’t wear it until the 2024 Oscars. The pale-blue dress was adorned with sparkles from head to toe with feathers sitting on her hips and the gown’s hem.
Danielle Brooks
The corset bodice on Brooks’ custom Dolce & Gabbana gown featured exposed boning lined with sparkles. Her black, velvet skirt had a thigh-high slit that ruched at the waist, and a bow at the back flowed into a train, tying it all together.
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson
Johnson’s charcoal suit, designed by Dolce & Gabbana, was made of satin, giving it a metallic look that stood out as he walked the red carpet. A red top with a plunging neckline and his signature sunglasses completed his look.
Florence Pugh
Pugh’s silver dress from Del Core had sparkles on the sheer bodice, which featured gravity-defying spaghetti straps that floated above her shoulders and a modified peplum that curved around her hips. The gems spilled onto the silky skirt, which flowed into a train. Bulgari jewelry completed the look, which was styled by Rebecca Corbin-Murray.
Robert Downey Jr.
The actor, who was nominated for best supporting actor for his performance in “Oppenheimer,” wore an all-black suit with pointed shoulders and wide-legged pants. He paired the look with sunglasses.
Charlize Theron
Theron’s floor-length silver dress had an asymmetrical neckline that twisted in the center to create two different strap styles.
Lily Gladstone
Gladstone’s midnight-blue dress was strapless and its neckline was lined with indigo fabric that coordinated with a flower-patterned cape. Gucci partnered with indigenous artist Joe Big Mountain to create the one-of-a-kind look, according to Vogue.
Zendaya
Armani Privé designed Zendaya’s dress, which had a form-fitting bodice covered in sparkles. An asymmetrical strap flowed from one shoulder to cinch at her hip, turning into a pink skirt adorned with sparkly, grey palm trees.
Greta Gerwig
Gerwig’s gold dress had a simple, form-fitting silhouette with a square neckline, but it was covered in sparkles, making it perfect for the red carpet.
Colman Domingo
Domingo’s custom Louis Vuitton look featured a double-breasted jacket with gold hardware, a bow tie with a sparkly brooch in the center, and flared pants. The star was nominated for best actor for his performance in “Rustin.”
Carey Mulligan
Mulligan’s black Balenciaga dress had a strapless neckline, and the bodice flowed into scallops that sat atop a white, mermaid skirt made of tulle.
Da’Vine Joy Randolph
Randolph, who won the Oscar for best supporting actress, arrived in a custom Louis Vuitton gown. The sparkly dress had a triangular neckline, and her detached sleeves were made of layers of ruffles. A sheer cape was the finishing touch of the glamorous look.
Greta Lee
Lee wore a black-and-white dress from Loewe with a low back. A swath of white fabric flowed over the neckline to create two cape-like ribbons that attached at her waist, like pockets.
