Elizabeth’s look was a win for those who thought that not only sequins and monochrome looks make their way on the red carpet. The Australian actress selected a custom deep red Dior gown that featured a boat neck, a low, draped back, and a braided belt around her waist. Debicki paired her look with gold and silver diamond-encrusted bracelets, as well as a silver ear cuff.

The White Lotus actress had a colossal pin stuck through her butter-yellow column gown. The accessory may look familiar to you, it might be because the “Past Lives” director Celine Song had a similarly large pin through her Loewe skirt at the Golden Globes. The gown featured a soft sheen and an architectural square neckline pierced through with an oversized sewing pin. Aubrey Plaza may have chosen to put a literal pin in her first red carpet look as the new face of Loewe.
9. Ayo Edebiri
