MANILA, Philippines – Hollywood’s A-list actresses oozed old-school elegance in white and glittering silver on the Oscars red carpet Sunday, even as rain tumbled down on Tinseltown’s top fashion parade. (Rappler liveblogs the Oscars here.)
Beyond the icy color palette, another trend for the ladies was lots of pearls and beads. Many of the gowns seen on the red carpet at the Dolby Theatre were embellished to the max.
For the men, there were lots of classic black tuxedos – best actor nominees Steve Carell and rival Michael Keaton, along with “Boyhood” star Ethan Hawke, a best supporting actor nominee, all kept it simple.
But a few used the red carpet to get noticed, mixing it up with color.
Check out some of the A-list celebrities on the red carpet:
