All eyes were on the 2025 Oscars red carpet.
For the 97th Academy Awards held on March 2, hosted by Conan OâBrien at Hollywoodâs Dolby Theatre, some of Hollywood's biggest celebs pulled out their most head-turning looks to celebrate this yearâs cinematic brilliance. (See every star in attendance here.)
ICYMI, Lupita Nyong'o, Emma Stone, Selena Gomez and Demi Moore were among those who took glamour to a whole new level with the most dazzling gowns covered in sequins, jewels and intricate details. Meanwhile, Lily-Rose Depp, Miley Cyrus and Whoopi Goldberg opted for a bit of a darker palette, wowing the crowd with eye-catching textures and silhouettes.
Halle Berry shut down the red carpet (as usual) with one of her most iconic looks yet, donning a reflective Christian Siriano form-fitting gown that resembled a mirror mosaic. And along with her glimmering jewelry, her flawless bob was a stunning accessory itself.
Ariana Grande, who is nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Wicked, swapped out her usual Glinda pink for something a little more subtleâthough the silhouette more than made up for it.

Oscars 2025: Red Carpet Fashion
The blush pink of the two-time Grammy winnerâs Schiaparelli SS25 gown was reminiscent of the bubble her character Glinda steps out of in the stage-to-screen adaptation, featuring a structured lace-up bodice with sparkling tulle and lace flowing from the bottom. And if it wasnât fabulous enough already, her skirt was comprised of 190,000 crystal sequins and rhinestones.
But Ariana wasnât the only one whose outfit was a subtle nod to her Wicked character. Indeed, her costar Cynthia Erivo walked the carpet in a striking dark green Louis Vuitton gown with huge velvet off-the-shoulder sleeves and a matching collar.

And while Cynthiaâwho was nominated for Best Actress in a Leading Roleâchanneled her character Elphaba through the dramatic ensemble, it also paid tribute to the first-ever Black Academy Award winner Hattie McDaniel, who won Best Supporting Actress in 1940 for her role as Mammy in Gone With the Wind.
âTonight is for Haddie McDaniel,â Cynthiaâs stylist Jason Bolden wrote on his Instagram Stories March 2. âHope this Dress Makes You Proud!!â
