Oscars 2020 who wore what: 45 red carpet looks from the women in film parties


  • English
  • Arabic

Oscars week is in full swing, with the awards taking place in Los Angeles this Sunday night.

The Academy Awards itself is all about classic gowns, and we can expect the after-parties to deliver plenty of glitter: but here we look at who is wearing what to the pre-parties, which are generally more cocktail-dress than ball-gown in terms of dress code.

Scroll through the gallery above to see who wore what at the 13th Annual Essence Black Women In Hollywood Awards Luncheon on Thursday; at the Vanity Fair and Lancome Women In Hollywood Celebration at the Soho House in Hollywood on Thursday night; and at the Women In Film Female Oscar Nominees Party at Sunset Room on Friday night.

Solace London was chosen by both Kate Beckinsale and Issa Rae; while Cara Santana wore a gorgeous monochrome blue look by Cong Tri and Kerry Washington opted for Lanvin.

So what can we expect on the Oscars red carpet itself? Well, the Academy Awards is a tightly controlled event in terms of invites, but nominees that we can expect to bring glamour to the red carpet include Cynthia Erivo, Renee Zellweger, Charlize Theron, Saoirse Ronan, Scarlett Johansson, Florence Pugh and Margot Robbie.

And, presenters include Natalie Portman, Jane Fonda, Regina King, Zazie Beetz and Penelope Cruz.
