Michelle Yeoh in Elie Saab
The ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ actress is giving us major fairytale vibes in this nude ball gown adorned with silver and gold sequins. Can Elie Saab please be my fairy godmother as well and bibbidi-bobbidi-boo me into a princess aswell?

Molly Sims in Zuhair Murad
The American model and actress turned heads in her super-sparkly silver, sequin dress. The lace details and back cut-out add an exciting twist and breaks up the otherwise heavy design. #ShineBrightLikeaDiamond

Julia Roberts in Elie Saab
The ‘Pretty Woman’ actress wore the colour of the evening: bright PINK! She presented best picture award in a custom made asymmetrical gown that fell loosely around her figure. Unreal.

Angela Bassett in Reem Acra
Bold, fierce and daring. This dress is guaranteed to make you stand out. The ‘Black Panther’ star owned this asymmetrical puff sleeve dress like no other could (I wish I had her confidence!)
Bright pink, asymmetrical sleeves, ruffles and high leg slit….we’re starting to see a trend here…

Kate Hudson in Elie Saab
The beauty with the power voice is showing off her feminine side in a playful, coral toned gown by Lebanese star designer Elie Saab. The asymmetrical sleeve and leg slit strongly remind (see, we’re on to something here) us of Nadine Labaki’s gown. Full marks.

Hannah Beachler in Rami Al Ali
Hannah Beachler – the first African-American woman to win an Oscar for production design – dramatically draped herself in a red gown with asymmetrical sleeves and surprise….RUFFLES! Her unconventional face jewellery is a wink to the ‘Black Panther’ movie, that she received her award for.

Krysten Ritter in Reem Acra
Krysten, known for her role as Jessica Jones in the Marvel series, shows off her baby bump in a fitted red lace dress with nude optic. Daring, but we like it!

Kendall Jenner in Rami Kadi
The Victoria’s Secret Angel attends the Vanity Fair Oscars party in a jaw-dropping dress. The black velvet gown boasts beaded fringes and directs the focus towards the model’s toned legs. (Let’s be honest, we’d all sport a dress like this if we had THAT killer body)…
