The Academy Awards red carpet has long been one of the most glamorous fashion stages in the world. Every year, celebrities arrive in show-stopping ensembles, turning Hollywood’s biggest night into a celebration of style as much as cinema.
The Oscars are considered to follow a “black tie” dress code. That usually means tuxedos for men and elegant, floor-length gowns for women.
This attire guideline dates back to 1969, when dancer and Broadway choreographer Gower Champion produced the ceremony and formally established it.
