Rachel Zegler [1] is getting her Oscars moment [2] after all. After she initially publicized that she wasn't invited to the award show [3] despite "West Side Story"'s seven nominations, the Academy extended an invite to the actor as a presenter. While it may have been last minute, Zegler still managed to choose a standout look for her Oscars debut.
Styled by Sarah Slutsky [4], the actor wore a sheer black couture gown from Christian Dior's spring 2022 collection paired with a gold choker, bracelet, and rings from Tiffany & Co. The sleeveless scoop-neck dress sparkled from every angle, featuring diamond appliqués and an open back, a far departure from her original planned outfit.
Prior to getting invited to the ceremony, when asked by a fan on Instagram what she'd be wearing Oscars night, she had responded, "i'm not invited so sweatpants and my boyfriend's flannel." Fortunately, she was able to rock a dreamy gown instead.
