Last night marked the spectacular conclusion of awards season with the 2026 Oscars, held at the iconic Dolby Theatre. For the second consecutive year, the ceremony was hosted by Conan O’Brien, guiding audiences through an evening that blended memorable wins, a few slightly awkward jokes, and—unsurprisingly—show-stopping fashion. The 98th Academy Awards ultimately became defined not only by its historic moments but also by the creativity and spectacle on the red carpet.
Cast members from some of the year’s most talked-about films—including Sinners, Hamnet, One Battle After Another, Marty Supreme, and Sentimental Value—fully embraced the glamour of the night. The red carpet showcased everything from exclusive custom gowns to notable style debuts and loyal designer partnerships. For the second year in a row, Elle Fanning and Timothée Chalamet both remained devoted to designs by Sarah Burton for Givenchy. Dramatic beauty makeovers and bold styling choices added even more excitement to the evening.
The guest list itself was just as captivating as the fashion. Several celebrity couples created buzz on the red carpet—Paul Mescal appeared alongside Gracie Abrams in a rare public moment, while Kylie Jenner skipped the carpet but was spotted inside supporting Timothée Chalamet. Of course, the biggest question of the night remains: which looks will ultimately earn a place among the most unforgettable Oscar outfits in history?
