Oscars red carpet live coverage: Best fashion and celebrity moments - USA TODAY

cisobakaso.blogspot.com

Let's just confess now: We didn't see all the Oscar-nominated movies. And we don't need to. We're here for the fashion. Some of us are watching from the red carpet in Los Angeles in our very best tuxes and dresses, and some of us might just be like you: We're in our comfy sweats on our comfy couches.

We're sharing the best looks from the red carpet, our favorite style and fun from the stars nominated to their moms (we aren't judging the moms!)

We're here for the elegant gowns and the more avant garde looks. We hope there are some! We love a fashion risk − whether you love it or not, you have to respect it.

See all the red carpet looksVanessa Hudgens rocks a baby bump, more stars on the red carpet

Vanessa Hudgens' baby bump steals the red carpet show

An early red carpet surprise? Red carpet favorite host Vanessa Hudgens in Vera Wang showing off her baby bump. (Congratulations!) She's hosting the Oscars Red Carpet Show along with Julianne Hough

How to watch the Oscars red carpet

Our favorite way is from the red carpet itself. Lucky us, Ralphie Aversa is there in his tux, along with Sandy Hooper in her a gorgeous embellished column dress − always looking adorable.

And our Bryan Alexander and Patrick Ryan are looking dapper in their tuxedos. And Charlie Trepany looks fantastic in his black suit (check out that tie!) Bryan's tuxedo has been in heavy rotation this year as he attended the Globes, the Emmys and the Screen Actors Guild Awards. (That cost per wear, that's girl math for justification for a splurge, is going down, Bryan!)

But alas, we are also you, and you are us. Or something like that, we are commoners − and we are watching streaming.

E! has a full day of Oscars coverage planned, starting with "E! Brunch at the Oscars" at 2 p.m. ET/11 a.m. PT and red carpet show "Live from E!: The Oscars" at 4 p.m. ET/1 PT. ABC's preshow at 6:30 p.m. ET/3:30 PT, hosted by Vanessa Hudgens and Julianne Hough, will lead into the live awards show.

Ryan Gosling is Formal Ken

Ryan Gosling put his own spin on black, in an incredibly eye-catching but also predictably classy way. Obviously, right? The guy is repping Ken. He delivered, with his signature smolder, an unbuttoned shirt and a jacket that included platinum piping along the trim (matching the piping, it seemed, on the shirt). Formal Awards Show Ken, for sure.

Anya Taylor-Joy shines

Anya Taylor-Joy

Does it matter how comfortable a dress is or how it looks? The Oscars are not a short ceremony, so attendees are seated for hours. And a number of these red carpet looks have extensive, if involved trains or bows or cascading design elements, which is to say they must be more comfortable to look at than wear. 

The strapless platinum gown worn by Anya Taylor-Joy, perhaps known best for her leading role in the Queen’s Gambit, is every bit an Oscars dress. Like, it’s a vision of glamor and timeless elegance. The jeweled top transitioned into a jeweled, and almost feathered, skirt. Here’s hoping it’s comfy to sit in. 

Is Emma Stone bringing peplum back?

From her pastel lip color to her artsy, seafoam-hued dress, Emma Stone carried a tiered dress trend forward down the red carpet. The shape of the dress, coupled with the subtle texturing on it and the matching shoes, added yet another beautiful look to Stone’s awards season wardrobe – which has almost always involved a Louis Vuitton dress. But we should expect nothing less from her.

Is it possible that Vuitton can bring peplum back again? The silhouette that captured so many of us in the 1980s, made a brief comeback around 2010, might be back?

Emma Stone isn't a poor thing at the Oscars. She's one our of best-dressed!

Marlee Matlin channels her own purple look

Marlee Matlin

Something felt familiar about this Marlee Matlin look. We couldn't figure it out until someone remembered way back into the 1900s when Matlin won the best actress Oscar in another purple dress. It was 1987 for "Children of a Lesser God" for those of you checking!

Sterling K. Brown's tux starting a trend?

Sterling K. Brown, nominated as best supporting actor for his performance in "American Fiction," looked predictably handsome in a tux that mixed navy and black – most notably with contrasting lapels. He wasn’t the first of the night to sport those contrasting lapels, which may signal an incoming trend. 

Hailee Steinfeld is a 70s goddess

Can we just all agree that this Elie Saab flowing aqua chiffon gown is our favorite for the night and shut down the blog?

Not notes. Let's go home!

America Ferrera shines in bubblegum pink

There she is, Mrs. America!

America Ferrera was all dolled up in a sparkly, bubblegum pink gown that was all Barbie, a contrast to the schoolgirl charm Billie Eilish sported, complete with a jacket, boucle skirt and mary jane-style shoes. The two squealed and embraced when they saw each other on the carpet. And, Eilish and her brother Finneas finished their looks with the red, Artists4CeaseFire buttons, supporting a ceasefire in Gaza.

President Barbie stuns

Issa Rae, otherwise known as President Barbie, wowed in a floor-sweeping, emerald green dress that included both a deep V and a high leg, in addition to a mixture of fabrics. Was the skirt a crushed velvet? And the top a sparkly something else? It seemed so. And it’s not the first time fabrics are intermingling in the same garment on tonight’s red carpet. Her high-top bun was a cute finish.

Strong shoulder

Sandra Hu¬ller

Sandra Hüller, nominee for best actress, goes with a bold shoulder. Let's hope her seat is wide enough or her seatmates are friendly!

Cynthia Erivo also got the note about shoulders.

More men in brooches

Simu Liu and Allison Hsu made classic black and white look as regal as ever — he, shirtless in a jacket that fastened with a brooch, a trend we saw on Jeremy Allen White at the SAGs, on his right hip and she in a strapless, milky gown that included somewhat of a side fin off her left hip. Their looks together, essentially, balanced each other out. And his alone played to the confidence of his Ken #2 character.

Rita Moreno brought back her ruffles

Rita Moreno worked the red carpet in Badgley Mishchka, arriving with her daughter in a floor-length dress that was both playful and glamorous. In black from head to toe, Moreno worked a slender sheath that was accented with a plume of fun, black flowers around her neck, which eventually trailed down her right side — accenting a thigh-high slit on her right side. She finished the look with full-length black gloves and wowed the paparazzi with a few moves, as if to show she’s done this before.

It also felt like an homage to Chita Rivera.

Does Mario Lopez age?

He played it straight and sleek in a classic black tux, bringing his dimples along as his go-to accessory. But really, he’s a time capsule.

Laura Karpman comes to play

Laura Karpman

More is 100 percent more for composer Laura Karpman, who greeted photographers on the red carpet cordially, asked how everyone was doing and tossed goodies to paparazzi members. Dressed head to toe in sequins, wearing sunglasses and keeping a second pair handy on the front of her top, (name) finished her over-the-top look with layers of necklaces. Multiple layers. It was hard to count with the sequins hogging most of the attention, but it doesn’t really matter, because it’s clear she came to have fun.

Liza Koshy falls on the red carpet

Liza Koshy took a tumble on the red carpet in a dress that had a tight bodice and a flared bottom. Her sky-high heels might have contributed. But, she brushed it off, telling the gasping crew of photographers, “I got my ankle insured, so we’re fine. It’s a write off.”

Jamie Lee Curtis proves you can't go wrong in basic black

Jamie Lee Curtis

Sometimes, you just need find a basic black dress - and wear it all the time. OK, Jamie Lee Curtis probably has never worn this Dolce & Gabbana before. But when you look this good, you should wear it again!

Brittany Snow shines in yellow

Brittany Snow

And Brittany Snow was flawlessly jewel-toned in a strapless, canary gown that was accented only by a chunky, lavender and gold necklace. It didn’t have to work hard to highlight her crystal blue eyes. 

It also reminds us of these gorgeous yellow looks from Reese Witherspoon at past awards shows.

Julianne Hough wows in a jumpsuit, not a gown

Julianne Hough took that West Coast wide leg look to the next, most fashionable level in a strapless jumper that was mostly high-waisted, exaggerated wide leg pants topped and a little bit, golden sequined top. The pants were incredible, and included pockets — the best part, obviously — and the balance between the two elements, even though it was off-balance, was just right. Wonder what shoes she had on?

Cutest grandmas, so far

And, the cutest grandmas on the red carpet are unofficially (because it’s early, but they’ll be hard to beat) "Nai Nai and Wai Po." The two are from a Disney film that celebrates their friendship, shot by the pair’s grandson. Chang Li Hua and Yi Yan Fuei arrived on the carpet, excited and waving to everyone, wearing beautiful, vibrant floral pantsuits, and dark shades. They could have worn anything though, and probably still been just as cute.

First on the red carpet

(L-R) DJ M.O.S. and DJ Kiss

DJ Kiss was the first star to arrive on the Red Carpet, which is no pressure at all, right? She immediately made a mark in a dramatic one-shoulder, high-leg, floor-length metallic gown made of a fabric that must be touched to be understood. It looked lightweight, like those survival blankets adventurers use in the backcountry. But who really knows. Either way, it made for a pretty, glittery start to the evening. 

What are the best Oscar dresses from 2023?

Michelle Yeoh looked ethereal in white when she won best actress at the Oscars in 2023.

We knew you Googled that before joining us. And if you didn't, we've got you.

Our own Erin Jensen (who is watching the Oscars from South by Southwest tonight) picked her favorite Oscar dresses last year, which landed Lady Gaga and Michelle Yeoh on the list.

We love a mix of textures. Score for 'American Fiction'

Erika Alexander

Erika Alexander, of "American Fiction," mixed fabrics and textures in an unexpected if really intriguing way from Cristian Siriano. And honestly, instead of being jarring — like it sounds it could be — it’s playful and fun and right on time for spring, mixing pastels and lightweight fabrics with black leather and over-the-elbow gloves. The flowers on her necklace kept the look light, ladylike and fun. 

Tiered skirts and dresses are appearing to be a mini, red carpet trend — at least today, which could foreshadow coming mainstream trends for the rest of us. From midi length skirts reminiscent of private school uniforms to mixed fabrics and dresses that go from corset to ruffled waist to sheath. Might be something to keep an eye on in the coming months.

Will the Oscars red carpet be red?

Yes, the Academy ditched the champagne carpet they debuted in 2023 to lackluster results.

Jimmy Kimmel introduced the carpet amongst much fanfare last year, calling it beautiful.

We felt meh about it all.

Gimmicks aside, the champagne carpet looked a little dirty. The white dresses that were so popular last year faded into them, and it sort of stressed us out thinking: It's raining, take OFF your shoes! But who says take off your shoes to Angela Bassett or Cate Blanchett? Not us.

The Oscars carpet has been now iconic red since the 33rd Academy Awards, hosted by Bob Hope in 1961. 

Let's have a moment to appreciate tradition − and red carpets.
