The 2026 Oscars saw the stars descend on Los Angeles. Some of them oozed class, charisma, elegance, and charm in copious doses not just through their warm smiles but also through their outfits for the evening. The likes of Michael B. Jordan, who won his first Academy Award for Best Actor, and veteran names like Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway were picture-perfect in their dresses and richly complementing accessories. We take a look at five of the best-dressed celebrities during the star-studded event on Sunday.

A custom Louis Vuitton jacket, tuxedo pants, David Yurman jewelry, and a minimalist necklace at his waist turned Michael B. Jordan into a red-carpet standout. His perfect frame, which has made him one of the jacked celebs in Hollywood, was on display as he moved through the event. As far as eye-candy ratings go, the 'Sinners' star takes the top spot. Not only did he edge a stacked nominee list comprising Leonardo DiCaprio and Timothée Chalamet, but he also appeared to be the best-dressed among the three as he capped off his evening with an iconic piece of silverware to his name.

'Bugonia' nominee Emma Stone was seen in a custom Louis Vuitton gown and REPOSSI jewelry. The actress kept it simple and classy, but, per reports, the outfit took over 600 hours to make. InStyle called the outfit an 'ethereal white sequin dress with a square neckline, backless design, and unexpected cap sleeves,' and the craftsmanship took its time. On the performance front, the latest appearance marked her fourth Academy Award nomination after earning nods for 'Birdman', 'The Favourite', 'La La Land', and 'Poor Things'.

Anne Hathaway

Widely regarded as one of the best-dressed celebs across awards platforms, Anne Hathaway looked elegant in her floral-patterned Valentino dress with Roger Vivier shoes. Her Bulgari jewelry included a necklace with an 8k pear-cut diamond. The presenter made sure she took the spotlight and received bouquets for her fashion choice on Sunday.

Zoe Saldaña

Simple yet charming was Zoe Saldaña's approach to the Oscars. The 'Lioness' star made headlines for her awe-inducing Cartier necklace. The Anthony Vaccarello dress was a perfect fit and exquisitely accessorized with a lace-and-satin Saint Laurent.

Pedro Pascal

Just when folks thought he had forgotten his jacket at home. But 'The Mandalorian' star, along with his colorful interaction with Sigourney Weaver, made a style statement with his white and black outfit. Jumping on the feather trend, Pedro Pascal wore a crisp white shirt, jet black trousers, and a Chanel brooch. We wouldn't call it a flattened Devil's Urchin, but it did stand out as a perfect accessory. Also, check out our list of the worst-dressed celebs at the Oscars 2026.
