Cynthia Erivo: Givenchy Look 28
Claire Waight Keller’s couture collection included a number of frothy, voluminous gowns nipped at the waist with stiff leather belts, grounding the ethereal pieces with a hit of modernity. Best actress nominee Cynthia Erivo hasn’t shied away from color, volume or texture lately (at the BAFTAs she wore a sleek purple braid to match the color of a chiffon underskirt) so we love this lilac number for her.

Charlize Theron: Christian Dior Look 1
This year, Dior went heavy on a burnished gold color palette, turning out swishy silhouettes that would look particularly good paired with a certain shiny little statue. Bombshell star Charlize Theron has been the face of the house’s J’adore fragrance for years, and wore a metallic, goddess-inspired Dior gown to the 2017 Academy Awards. This fringed dress would be a more out-there choice than her usual (she likes a mermaid skirt), but she has the fashion chops to pull it off.

Scarlett Johansson: Valentino Look 13
Scarlett Johansson’s red carpet style is sleek, sexy and dramatic—she tends to go for daring necklines, saturated colors and backless pieces that show off her artistic tattoos. This plum-colored satin gown from Valentino ticks all the boxes, with a plunging U shape in the front and back and a cherry-red bow at the nape.
