Lindzi Scharf This awards season has seen a return to sparkle, sequins, sexy silhouettes and, well, celebration. “We’re a little more liberated,” says Jessica Paster, a veteran stylist who dressed Aubrey Plaza in a slinky Louis Vuitton dress for the Critics Choice Awards, “Babylon” actress Li Jun Li in a strapless Dolce & Gabbana for the Golden Globes, and Emily Blunt in a form-fitting Oscar de la Renta dress for the SAG Awards. “Before, when people would say black tie, it was a big ol’ ball gown. We still love a big ol’ ball gown, but anything goes now. The pandemic changed a lot about the way we feel. We realized that we have to live our best life, and that means whatever we feel like wearing, we can wear.”
Sustainability has also been top of mind this season and is a trend we’ll likely see on Oscar night. “People are wearing a lot of vintage,” says Paster, “because why waste a dress?” “Vintage tells a story,” says Micaela Erlanger, who styles Lupita Nyong’o and Meryl Streep. “Vintage informs new fashion and trends. We’re always informed and inspired by the past. It’s how designs and collections are created. This idea of not being able to wear things more than once is so taboo.” Stars have also been rewearing red carpet looks from their closets. Most notably, Cate Blanchett attended this year’s London Critics’ Circle Film Awards in a custom Alexander McQueen suit that she previously wore to a 2019 New York film premiere. She also re-wore her 2014 Golden Globes look — a black Giorgio Armani Privé dress — to this year’s SAG Awards. “Cate Blanchett is known for repeatedly rewearing things that she loves,” Erlanger says, noting it was hardly a first for Blanchett and her stylist Elizabeth Stewart, who have been

from Robert Wun’s debut couture collection that she wore to the Critics’ Circle Awards, or the from Harris Reed’s debut for the house she chose for the BAFTAs. Pugh frequently turns to Pierpaolo Piccioli for head-turning Valentino creations, often selecting his most playful looks. Case in point: the preppy-meets-peekaboo ensemble she wore for the screening of A Good Person in New York on March 20, comprised of a silk cady gown featuring a cheeky open back and floor-sweeping maxi skirt from the house’s pre-fall 2023 collection. Florence swerved a frothy gown in favor of a dress with a twist. Coming shortly after the , where ties cropped up at Alexander McQueen and David Koma, among others, Pugh’s custom look incorporated a skinny tie that peeped from beneath the collar of her dress, offering a contemporary spin on the staid old office accessory.

Marc Malkin Senior Film Awards, Events & Lifestyle Editor I was clean-shaven when I left for Palm Springs for Christmas. A few days later, I arrived back at home in Los Angeles with a beard. I didn’t plan on my new hirsute look. I just don’t like shaving. I avoid it when I can. But as my beard grew in, my friends started telling me they liked it. They remarked at how “distinguished” it looked with its mix of ginger and white. I worried I might appear older than I am, but my cousin insisted that she thought it actually made me look younger. I decided to go for a trial run by keeping the beard for the Palm Springs International Film Festival’s opening night gala red carpet. I needed to see how it looked on camera. The beard was a hit. Austin Butler told me he liked it and so did Colin Farrell. A few days later at the Golden Globes, Andrew Garfield said, “The beard looks nice. The ginger and white is like a Prince Harry thing you’ve got going on.”
