The 94th Oscars illuminated Hollywood last night from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, not merely with its awards but also through a dazzling display of fashion. MOJEH curates a selection of the evening's sartorial highlights and special moments of the night.
Oppenheimer cast a long shadow over the evening, clinching an impressive 13 nominations and walking away with five accolades, including Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor for Robert Downey Jr., Best Leading Actor for Cillian Murphy, and Best Director for Christopher Nolan. Amidst the glitter and glamour, "Poor Things" shone brightly, securing four victories, highlighted by Emma Stone's triumph as Best Actress. However, her moment of glory was tinged with an unexpected twist — her elegant Louis Vuitton attire succumbed to the evening's excitement, giving way as she gracefully made her way to the stage. In a turn of events that left many in dismay, "Killers of the Flower Moon" did not take any golden statues home.
In the midst of a stiff competition, the nominations for acting were a veritable roll call of Hollywood's finest, spanning the talents of Lily Gladstone to Bradley Cooper, each delivering top-tier performances and showcasing their impeccable fashion sense. Another favourite of the night, "Barbie" did not go home empty handed, securing Best Song with "What Was I Made For?" by Billie Eilish and Finneas.
Godzilla Minus One' clinched Best Visual Effects, while Robert Downey Jr. was honoured with Best Supporting Actor. 'The Zone of Interest' took home the award for Best International Feature. 'Poor Things' stood out in the design categories, winning Best Costume Design, Best Production Design, and Best Hair and Makeup. 'American Fiction' was recognised for its storytelling with the Best Adapted Screenplay award.
Although some fan favourites didn't claim any wins the evening's array of stunning outfits ensured the spectacle remained thoroughly engaging. See some of our favorite look below and find the full list of winners here.
