The red carpets for the 2019 Oscars was awash with hues of pink. From frothy tulle, oversized bows, daring cutouts and plenty of ruffles, hot pink stole the show.
Finishing off awards season, the Academy Awards is where stars up the ante with their sartorial choices – going bigger and bolder. While Gemma Chan made a show stopping entrance in a voluminous haute couture Valentino gown (complete with pockets!), Ocean’s 8 star Sarah Paulson opted for a fuchsia Brandon Maxwell dress accessories with Harry Winston jewels. Helen Mirren however channeled a Killing Eve look with bold tulle, wearing Schiaparelli Haute Couture and matching lipstick. Ooh la la.
