Happy Academy Awards night to all the cinephiles—and fashion fans—who celebrate. Tonight, a parade of 2024 Oscars red carpet fashion moments brought this year's awards season to a close. And what an immensely satisfying and decadent note to end on, from gowns to diamonds to Lily Gladstone simply being Lily Gladstone.

This evening, celebrities descended upon the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles to honor this year's best in film, with Killers of the Flower MoonOppenheimer, and Poor Things leading the 2024 Oscars nominations. Hosted by comedian Jimmy Kimmel (his fourth time hosting the gig), tonight's ceremony brought stars like Margot Robbie, Emma Stone, and The Holdovers breakout actress Da'Vine Joy Randolph out in their award show best.

Speaking of Robbie, the 2024 Oscars was our last chance to see the actress channel her beloved Barbie look on the red carpet—but she completely subverted expectations. Robbie wore an all-black Versace gown that was a far cry from the hot pink we've seen her wear on recent red carpets and press appearances. (But in the spirit of keeping the Barbie mania alive, make sure you've familiarized yourself with how to watch the Oscars before Ryan Gosling takes the stage to perform "I'm Just Ken" live.)

But before Gosling steals your attention, the red carpet was the one to watch because tonight's looks confirmed that Hollywood glamour is alive and well. Ahead are all of the must-see looks from the 2024 Oscars red carpet, including Zendaya's black and pink Barbenheimer gown and Emma Stone's peplum dress.
