The 93rd Academy Awards red-carpet fashion is on view at Union Station in Los Angeles, where the Oscars 2021 arrivals are happening.
Perhaps in a nod to the hardware being distributed to the evening’s winners, the most-eye-catching metallic looks were head-to-toe gold, notably worn by Carey Mulligan (“Promising Young Woman”) in a midriff-bearing organdy copper Valentino Couture gown embroidered with iridescent sequins that was as voluminous on the bottom as it was spare on the top; Andra Day (“The United States vs. Billie Holiday”) in a clingy custom Vera Wang Haute gown that flowed around her form like fluid (despite requiring the help of welders to create); and Leslie Odom Jr. (“One Night in Miami ...”), who opted for a gold metallic double-breasted Brioni tuxedo and button-front shirt layered over a black turtleneck.
