All the Fashion From the 2025 Oscar Red Carpet: Ariana Grande, Selena Gomez & More

For Oscar nominees and viewers alike, the Oscars red carpet 2025 was where the fun began. Like every year, when the Oscars red carpet 2025 officially opened on Sunday, March 2, fashion correspondents and hosts were among the first attendees to stop and pose for photographers. From there, they took their posts on the red carpet, continuing the time-honored tradition of wielding a microphone and asking stars, “Who are you wearing?” (a question made famous by Joan Rivers in the ’90s), before making their way into the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.

Once the press was in place and the cameras were rolling, the Oscars red carpet 2025 really got going. It’s almost as if the Academy Awards red carpet acted as the world’s most viewed runway, as it welcomed a steady stream of Oscar presenters, Oscar nominees and their plus-ones (often an actor’s mom or dad), all dressed to the nines. As the Oscars red carpet 2025 buzzed with excitement and the 97th Academy Awards ceremony inched ever-closer, it was here that guests were immortalized in fashion history by a sea of cameras, as they basked in the glow of Oscar night and relished the moment. A look that is always in vogue.

This year’s Oscar nominees put their stand-out style on display all awards season long and brought their best looks to the Oscars ceremony. From best-actress Oscar winner Mikey Madison, who wore Dior and Tiffany & Co. (specifically a necklace from the luxury jeweler, a ring in platinum with a pink tourmaline, and a bracelet, earrings and ring in platinum) to best-actor nominee Colman Domingo, who wore a custom Valentino suit with Boucheron jewelry (his ribbon clip is archival, it’s from the Boucheron Private Collection and dated 1956) to best-actor winner Adrien Brody, who wore Giorgio Armani Made to Measure, stars were experts at blending fun and fashion on the red carpet.

Selena Gomez sparkled in a custom Ralph Lauren gown that featured incredibly intricate details, like handsewn Rosemont crystals and more than 16,000 drops of glass. Zoe Saldana, who took home the best-supporting actress Oscar for her role in Emilia Pérez, wore a tiered look from Saint Laurent by Anthony Vaccarello. And Ariana Grande wore not one, but two Schiaparelli haute couture looks for the red carpet and her performance during the Oscars ceremony.
