On the Oscars red carpet, Hollywood’s best felt like a million bucks — but how much did they fork over to their stylists?

An anonymous source told Paula Froelich of NewsNation that a star can pay anywhere between $60,000 – $100,000 for a stylist to get them ready for a single event, including the Academy Awards — and that doesn’t even include the cost of gowns or accessories.

The eye-watering amount is more than what some tenured Hollywood stylists have been paid in the past.

“Stylists used to get $10k,000 a day and there were just a few of us,” Wayne Scott Lukas, who has styled Hollywood legends like Tina Turner and Janet Jackson told NewsNation.

“What’s changed is now everyone is a stylist — and undercutting people who actually know clothes and fashion.”

He claimed that the novice stylists “don’t have the relationships at couture houses” like longtime professionals do — even if they’re charging up to 10 times what a stylist made in the past.

Lukas also lamented the occasional “ugly fashion” that is brought to the red carpet due to the “commission” they get from designers that he would never dare take.

“They put celebrity power in their pockets and cut deals everywhere,” he explained.”They get free bags and dresses in exchange for putting their stuff on celebrities (on top of being paid by celebrities).”

He added: “If I took a gift or commission I lost my integrity to my client.”

Instead, he hopes clients learn to be more critical of the stylists they hire to dress them, claiming that newer stylists supposedly don’t work in the interest of clients, only for their own “financial gain.”

“When your creativity is based on transactions… the only winner is the stylist who got the money or the gift,” he added.
