The 2025 Oscars red carpet has been rolled out, and stars arrived in many winning styles on Hollywood’s biggest night.
When the 97th Academy Awards kicked off on Sunday, March 2, outside the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, Dancing With the Stars judge Julianne Hough was among the first on the crimson rug. She hit a sartorial high note in a sheer one-shoulder dress in mocha mousse, the Pantone 2025 color of the year.
Meanwhile, Joan Chen made a compelling case for the return of Brat Green in a highlighter-bright chiffon gown with cutouts that flashed just enough skin to feel sexy yet subversive.
Meanwhile, Wicked actor and SNL star Bowen Yang leaned into the fantastical theme of the Academy Award-winning film in a black leather blazer emblazoned with intricate multicolored embroidery and a frilly pink ruffled shirt underneath.
Conan O’Brien hosted tonight’s ceremony; however, the co-host of Entertainment Tonight, Nischelle Turner, did her part to command attention on the step and repeat in a metallic dress with a cape effect well worthy of its own golden statuette.
