The Oscars are presented for outstanding individual or collective efforts in filmmaking in 24 categories. Vanity Fair's Oscar Party - 95th Academy Awards, Beverly Hills, USA - 12 Mar 2023

This is fun AND likely warm and comfy. Win win win win. (Plus, if anyone can carry off this hat, it's TER.)

Adwoa Aboah in Loewe

I'm sorry, I find this very entertaining. This Loewe line is obviously HIGHLY WHIMSICAL but also why not. YOLO. (On a serious note, the rest of the dress is so simple and perfect, you really get to enjoy the flower boobs and I mean that entire sentence sincerely.)

Karen Gillan

This is fine? Is a sentence I just said aloud to my laptop.

Camila Mendes in Versace

Slightly mummy-like, with one rogue sleeve and an expanse of kinesio tape...although it looks better than you'd guess from that sentence.

Amber Valletta

Very grown up and reasonable, for sure.

Naomi Watts in Givenchy

Ditto. I'll take one of each bracelet, please.

Lily James

Ditto ditto. (Actually this is very simple and good on her and the necklace is gorgeous.)

Rita Ora in Weiderhoeft and Taika Waititi

Rita Ora and Taika Waititi went very Updated Disney Prince and Princess.

Sharon Stone

This is swell. If anyone deserves a dramatic lemon yellow Oscars cape, it IS Sharon Stone who -- as Heather pointed out recently -- is currently in a Lenscrafters ad that has way more sexual tension than you'd expect from the genre.

Kerry Washington in vintage Donna Karan

She looks great in this and it's always fun to see vintage/archival pieces out and about again. Law Roach has been focusing on Kerry a bit more the last few weeks, with excellent results!

Naomi Ackie

It's fun that we're living in a time where there's a whole category of dresses I'd call SEXY DUNE.

Eva Herzigova and Helena Christensen

The supermodels look -- you guessed it! -- terrific.

Joan Smalls

I mean, honestly. Gorgeous and simple.

Saweetie

This is NOT simple, but it is really fun. (Saweetie in general seems very fun.)

Madelyn Cline

You should know this has an open back. She looks great.

Iris Law

I see your Sexy Dune and raise you to SEXIER DUNE.

Eiza Gonzalez

This is lovely.

Miranda Kerr in Elie Saab

Likewise, lovely.

Karolina Kurkova

I think there's shorts under there? I might have done a different shoe, just for kicks. No pun intended.

Jessica Alba in Carolina Herrera

Very basic but not in a bad way. The dress, I mean. The necklace is NOT BASIC. The necklace is major.

Donald Glover in McQueen

The elusive man jumpsuit, in the wild!

Maria Sharapova

Maria Sharapova is brunette now! I would not have recognized her. She looks cool, though.

Gigi Hadid in custom Zac Posen

First of all, Gigi looked like she was having so much fun in these pics and it was very charming. Second, it's nice that Zac is still doing custom work because he really can make the hell out of a formal gown. I hope he's got custom clients out the door. Third, this dress is GREAT and she looks great in it.

Cardi B

Cardi always brings it to these things, and she looks great in this, although it might slightly suffer by being next to the Zac Posen, which I think it is a little bit better as a garment and very similar.

Melanie Lynskey

She looks GREAT -- this is objectively dishy as hell on her --- although this feels a notch less fancy than maybe it should be for this event? I say this about a look that has a ton of diamonds, so maybe I'm off here. (I do want her shoes.)

Justin Long and Kate Bosworth in Monique Lhuillier

I believe this is their debut as a couple and they look SO HAPPY together. It is REALLY sweet. All the pics of them were just, like, sincerely so lovey.

Sanaa Lathan

Her dress is reasonable, her haircut is great, her face, as ever, is perfect.

Kelsey Asbille

Her top is all leather gloves melded together. This feels VERY cool girl 90s. To the extreme. Not in a bad way. Maybe in a slightly intimidating way.

Kylie Jenner in custom Maison Margiela

Don't get mad but I think this dress is fantastic.
