Alas, the 97th annual Academy Awards are finally here. The Oscars 2025, hosted this year by comedian Conan O’Brien, brought out the film world to the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles tonight. It’s the final act in what has been a historic (and, at times, very chaotic and unpredictable) awards season.
But before stepping inside the Dolby Theatre, stars of the past year’s biggest and boldest films hit the Oscars red carpet to show off their fanciest black tie outfits. Among them were Best Actress hopefuls Demi Moore and Mikey Madison, A Complete Unknown star Timothée Chalamet, and Wicked leading ladies Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande (later they’ll delight the crowd with a performance of tunes from the Jon M. Chu blockbuster). And with the likes of Selena Gomez, Miley Cyrus, Emma Stone, and Elle Fanning scheduled to present awards this evening (as well as a performance by Blackpink’s Lisa, Raye, and Doja Cat), the Oscars red carpet wasn’t short on sheer star power. Here, see all the best dresses, suits, and high jewelry from the Oscars red carpet 2025.
