The Oscars may not be as edgy style-wise as the Met Ball, but that’s not what the red carpet for this awards ceremony is about.
It is about beautiful gowns straight out of our fantasies and the 89th Academy Awards on Sunday 26 February didn’t disappoint.
From Janelle Monáe, Chrissy Teigen and Hailee Steinfeld’s takes on the nearly naked trend, to Emma Robert’s sustainable style statement and Priyanka Chopra’s daringly cut bodice, here are the gowns everyone will be talking about this year:
