Fashion updates from the 98th Annual Academy Awards only start on the official Oscars red carpet. Every insider knows the night really gets going, sartorially-speaking, at the 2026 Vanity Fair Oscar party. The guest list opens up from the night’s official nominees to all of Hollywood’s elite—and the dress code loosens up from Old Hollywood gowns to daring two-piece sets and naked dresses as far as the eye can see.
From what Marie Claire editors have heard, Oscar Party regulars like Kendall Jenner, Bella Hadid, and Hailey Bieber are slated to link up with Emma Stone, Teyana Taylor, and every other A-lister at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). If history repeats, they’ll party until the early hours of the morning—some with freshly-engraved Oscars trophies in hand. There’s no word yet on what they’ll wear, but we’re anticipating a mix of pulls fresh from the Fall 2026 Fashion Month runways; rare designer vintage; and custom looks by the likes of Louis Vuitton, Dior, and Chanel.
