The 45 Best Oscars Looks Of All Time

For decades, A-listers have glammed up for the Golden Globes, turned out for the SAGs, and pulled out almost all the stops for the Grammys. But the mother of all award shows is the Oscars, where the all-star Hollywood glamour is always on full display.

From couture gowns to custom-made looks, the Oscars red carpet showcases the best, most unforgettable fashion moments, from Audrey Hepburn's white Givenchy dress in 1954 to the Dior gown Jennifer Lawrence wore to accept her Academy Award in 2013. It has also given us  outfits that pushed the limits of what’s considered formalwear: Take, for example, Sharon Stone's 1998 Gap-shirt-and-Vera-Wang-skirt combo or Ariana De Bose's Valentino crop top-and-pants look, which she paired with a long train, in 2022.

With last night's Oscars done for another year, we’re brushing up on our Academy Awards fashion history with a trip down memory lane. Ahead, reminisce over the best Oscars red carpet looks of the past few decades, according to our fashion team.
