The Oscars red carpet is like the grand ball for stars in their designer gowns [1]. Every look that comes down is worthy of a second glance (some from the behind [2]). If you expected a sea of all-black outfits [3], that was not the case, as the Oscars had no #TimesUp dress code [4].
Instead, celebrities showed up in all colours of the rainbow. However, most stars found other ways to support the #TimesUp movement, either by wearing pins [5] or thanking women in their acceptance speeches [6]. Some even wore orange pins on the red carpet [7] to raise awareness about gun safety in light of the deadly shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School [8]. Ahead, see all the arrivals, and then find your favorite star and check out their behind-the-scenes snaps on Instagram [9].
