The 2022 Oscars ceremony kicked off at 8pm ET on Sunday night, March 27, at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood. As stars stepped out for one of the biggest events in entertainment, we take a look at what luxurious style was on display.

The Academy Awards have long been a global stage for brands and celebrities to cement their collaborations, as well as a laboratory for designers to showcase some truly inventive designs. With young rising stars and new fashion powerhouses like Zendaya appearing in Valentino, and Timothée Chalamet sporting Louis Vuitton and Cartier, to red carpet regulars Nicole Kidman in Armani, the star-studded extravaganza continues as a feast for luxury creations.

While some dressed to impress, others – including co-host of the evening, Amy Schumer – missed the style mark. Here are the best and worst dressed celebrities of the Oscars 2022.

The best:
