Before the winners were announced and the gold statuettes handed out, Oscars frenzy was already in full swing. International film stars and A-list celebrities dressed in their very best for their biggest night of the year, wowing photographers and waving to their fans at the 94th Oscars at the Dolby Theater, Los Angeles. Although it may be debatable whether the Academy Awards is the pinnacle of the cinematic arts, it’s clearly the red carpet to end all red carpets.

We round up the celebs we thought were most impeccably decked out in the latest haute couture fashion, adding indispensable glitter with high jewellery pieces from the crème de la crème of international jewellery brands: Cartier, Chopard and Tiffany & Co. to name a few.

And the Oscar goes to … Jessica Chastain for her best actress-worthy portrayal of the late controversial American televangelist Tammy Faye Bakker in the film The Eyes of Tammy Faye.

The epitome of effortless elegance, Olivia Colman stepped onto the red carpet in a silver pleated floor-length gown from Dior Couture. The dress’ high-neck perfectly complemented her Chopard high jewellery. The earrings in 18-carat white gold and diamonds come from the Precious Lace collection. The actress, who plays Queen Elizabeth in The Crown, also wore a regal ring with a 5.23-carat emerald cut diamond. She was nominated in the best actress category for her portrayal as the main character in The Lost Daughter.

Ever the style rebel, Kristen Stewart wowed when she stepped out in a custom Chanel shorts suit in black satin worn with a shirt. The gender-fluid glamour continued with a bejewelled necklace in white gold – evoking a sparkly tie – with spinel, onyx and diamonds from Chanel. Stewart was nominated for her much-complimented portrayal of the late Princess Diana in Spencer.
