If we were actors who had the honor of attending award shows [1], we'd have just as much fun dressing for the Spirit Awards [2] as we would the evening ceremonies. The daytime event gives stars the perfect chance to amp up their outfits with extra personality. Last year Cate Blanchett topped off her Gucci maxi [3] with a pair of colorful Fendi sunglasses, and it seems like 2017's guests followed suit, starting with Ruth Negga in a fresh-off-the-runway Fall 2017 Delpozo dress [4]. Scroll to see every sophisticated-yet-playful look to hit the scene, building up excitement for all the glamour at the Oscars.
