BEHOLD, the new cast of the next Knives Out. (Not really.) (OR IS IT.) (I want a check for this, Rian!!!)
Ariana Grande and Kristen Bell

This is ABSOLUTELY one of those events were no one knows exactly what to wear, because it's technically an awards event but also it starts at noon. I love K.Bell's dress but not for this. Ariana continues to look like a Victorian ghost. (I actually love her weird dress but her styling is washing her out so much lately.)
Jodie Foster

This feels like it's doing a pretty good job of threading that Formal (????) Mid-Day question.
Ayo Edebiri and Cynthia Erivo

Ayo has nailed it, and Cynthia just decided to go 101 Dalmatians. FWIW, I LOVE that coat.
Stephanie Beatriz

This is understated, in its way, but also feels too evening for me. FWIW I would have NO IDEA what to wear to this. I think I'd just wear a really nice day dress.
Jason Segel and Harrison Ford

I figured you wouldn't be mad at seeing Segel twice if getting to see Indiana Jones was part of the package.
Nava Mau and Jessica Gunning

Yes, we are STILL in Baby Reindeer season, apparently! These two absolutely look like they're going to vastly different events, like someone going to a gala is posing with her best friend from the office. Nava looks objectively great, though. I think Jessica needed a blazer here, although I do love her Docs.

I knew it!! It is better!
Kali Reis

Kali Reis basically looks incredibly cool 100% of the time.
Adriana Paz, Édgar Ramírez, Zoe Saldana and Jacques Audiard

"Please don't ask us about Karla."

This is unobjectionable but I do think it could use some jewelry?
Ralph Fiennes

Also same.

I like how severe this is. I wonder if it might be better served by different shoes? Not that they are bad -- they're neutral. But maybe they could have done something....MORE on her feet?
Brett Goldstein

Also might be enlivened by a giant gold pendant or something. COME ON!
