The 97th Academy Awards took over Los Angeles today, bringing a red carpet brimming with unforgettable fashion moments. Hollywood’s biggest stars, from Ariana Grande to Timothée Chalamet, arrived in looks that honor the grace and power of their characters. While the Oscars ceremony may mark the end of awards season, the fashion spectacle is far from over. My favorite part of the night happens during the outfit changes that lead guests to Vanity Fair‘s coveted after-party.
Once the trophies are handed out, the real fashion risks begin. Known as one of Hollywood’s most iconic soirées, the Vanity Fair party serves as the ultimate stage for bold, statement-making ensembles. Designers push boundaries, celebrities embrace their most daring style instincts, and new trends are born overnight. These are the break-the-internet moments. Ahead, the standout after-party looks that stole the spotlight.
