The red carpet at the Academy Awards is always one for the books, and this year was no exception. Metallic shades, structured details, and mermaid-inspired dresses stole the show at this year’s Oscars, and we’re bringing you five dreamy dresses that got everyone talking.
Lupita Nyong’o in Armani Privé
Many stars at this year’s Oscars gave us mermaid vibes with their icy blue and seafoam green gowns. Lupita Nyong’o embraced this trend with her sequined Armani Privé dress with feathered details.
Florence Pugh in Del Core
Florence Pugh also looked like a real-life mermaid in her silver Del Core gown, which featured a sculpted bodice with delicate beading, meant to mimic water droplets.
Zendaya in Armani Privé
Zendaya was shining brighter than ever at this year’s Oscars, and we’re still in awe of her dazzling pink and silver Armani Privé column gown, adorned with palm tree print.
Carey Mulligan in Balenciaga
Archival looks were having a moment this award season, and Carey Mulligan saved the best for last. Her black and white Balenciaga gown has been around for decades, and Cristóbal Balenciaga designed it all the way back in 1951.
Anya Taylor-Joy in Dior
Anya Taylor-Joy gave us one of the ceremony’s most dazzling looks in her custom silver Dior number, which is a clear tribute to the brand’s iconic Junon gown.
