The Oscars [1] have finally come, and Hollywood's biggest names in the film industry took to the red carpet, both virtually and in Los Angeles, to debut their most award-winning looks of the year. The 93rd Academy Awards was swarming with A-list celebs whose sultry outfits were well worth a double take (or three). With a star-studded list of nominees [2], presenters, and performers, this award show proved to be a big night for film and for fashion. The stars from this year's buzziest movies [3] (hello, Viola Davis and Andra Day [4]) were dressed to impress, giving viewers just what they've been missing after a year of virtual events.
Gracing the red carpet — and popping up from home — were some of our favorite actors, and from H.E.R's head-turning purple Dundas jumpsuit [5] to Zendaya [6]'s gorgeous custom Maison Valentino dress [7], these Oscars gowns [8] were all we could wish for on the fashion front. Take a look at the most glamorous moments ahead, and get ready to give each look the proper acknowledgment, if not shiny gold award, it deserves.
