Oscar night was every bit the spectacle it always is, only with a little drama and a lot of high fashion intertwined. The stars were out in full force, decked out in luxurious garb from today’s most sought-after designers. From actresses in dramatic ball gowns, to dapper men whose tuxedos stole the show, there was no shortage of impeccable style on the Oscars red carpet this year. Italian-made fashion abound, taking form in Viola Davis’ beautiful custom Armani, and Halle Barry’s Atelier Versace Couture gown, to name a few. There were also a number of Italian-made accessories, from fierce footwear, to dazzling jewelry.
While the Oscar ceremony was filled with a number of memorable moments, including Hollywood tour group passing by mingle with the stars, the night’s most controversial moment came at the end. Actor Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway took the stage to announce the winner of the Best Picture category. As La La Land rushed the stage in glee once its name was called, it was noted that something was amiss. The speech was interrupted, and it was revealed that Moonlight was the true winner, which sent the crowd and media into a tailspin. A highly unusual moment for one of Hollywood’s most important nights, and one that will surely be talked about for years to come.
As with every Oscar night, the real fun begins at the after party. A quick wardrobe change means stars get to drink and be merry all night long. Elegant luxury was the name of the game as Hollywood’s leading ladies and gentlemen attended after parties thrown by Vanity Fair, Elton John and the like. From Justin Timberlake, to Ryan Gosling and newcomer Riz Ahmed, the men of tinseltown brought their A-game to the red carpet, representing the very pinnacle of men’s fashion.
Although the Academy Awards are intended to celebrate the accomplishments of the film industry’s most talented players, it’s the fashion that captivates the eyes of the world.
