Top 10 best-dressed stars at the 95th Academy Awards

The Little Mermaid herself stunned in this Tiffany blue tulle ball gown by Dolce & Gabbana and diamond necklace by De Beers. Bailey told Live From E! host Laverne Cox, “I was really excited to wear this beautiful poofy dress to go into the fairytale world and give them a princess for one day.” Mission accomplished.

Deepika Padukone

From one mermaid to another, Indian actress Deepika Padukone made her Oscars debut in a gorgeous off-the-shoulder black velvet dress by Louis Vuitton that screamed old Hollywood glamor. She accessorized with matching gloves and a pear-shaped yellow diamond necklace by Cartier.

Cara Delevingne

Only Murders in the Building star Cara Delevingne looked happy and healthy as she brought red back to the carpet in this dramatic Elie Saab couture gown with Bulgari jewelry and Stuart Weitzman heels.

Paul Mescal

Harry Styles, is that you? The first-time nominee for Best Actor dressed to impress in a white tux by Gucci. We love the wide legged pants, floppy tie and flower detail!

Angela Bassett

We know everyone’s tired of hearing this, but she really did the thing in this purple Moschino dress. Bassett was nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her role as Queen Ramonda in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

Michelle Yeoh

One word: obsessed. Michelle Yeoh became the first Asian woman to win the Oscar for Best Actress for her role as Evelyn Quan Wang in Everything Everywhere All At Once. She accepted her award in an angelic feather-embroidered Dior dress and Moussaieff jewelry. During her acceptance speech, she told the audience, “For all the little boys and girls who look like me watching tonight, this is a beacon of hope and possibilities.”

Idris and Sabrina Elba

There’s no denying the Elba’s know how to do date night. The couple opted for colorful Gucci looks, with Idris looking dapper in a textured blue suit jacket and Sabrina wowing the crowd with a bright green long-sleeved dress with a bow.

Janelle Monáe

We’re living for Janelle Monáe in this custom Vera Wang gown. Everything from the plunging neckline to the draped orange skirt to the bold black choker was completely Oscar-worthy.

Florence Pugh

This might be a little controversial, but we loved Florence Pugh in this Valentino Couture look completed with jewelry by Tiffany and Co. The soft gray sweetheart neckline and ruffles balance out the sexy black shorts (which have pockets!!) to create an unforgettable moment on the carpet.

Rihanna

A best dressed list wouldn’t be complete without Rihanna, who continued to “work work work work work work” pregnancy style in this sheer and leather Alaïa dress.
