Couture-inspired creations came in stellar and elegant voluminous shapes. These captivating pieces of sophistication channeled a lot of fairytale, a handful of wedding and a few debutante.

Swinging the pendulum of fashion in extreme, form had its spotlight moments, too. Hourglass sexiness came in minimalist simple or flirty and ornate celebrating body beautiful. It’s all about the stylish and chic curves and not too much on the reveal.

Shapes weren’t all that mattered. The glamorous evening sparkled with hundreds of thousands beads and sequins. Embellishments ruled this time around and shone bright as celebrities simply blinged it on.

Neutrals in black and white are forever red-carpet staples. Adding to the classics, the new color on the block was Mocha Mousse and its close gradient hues. For the discerning fashion eye, there were some vintage and vintage inspired sightings, too, which will be more of a presence in the years to come.

Lastly, we just had to hear it from the boys. Style playfully painted the classic black suit (which we’re still predominant) with color. There were shades of green, beige/khakis, nude and a daring red. And there were a handful who braved with beading, sparkles, brooches and even reinventing the bowtie. No judgement on having just a little break from normality.

This Oscar season, fashion took a few steps back and was more relaxed but present. A lot of best dressed veterans were missing in action. There wasn’t any grandstanding trend or fashion — everyone came comfortably chic in the best version of themselves. You are what you wear, and nowadays, authenticity and inclusivity are key and come in the tallest order.
