The best and worst looks of the Oscars 2020 From Dior dresses and tributes to Kobe Bryant to Timothée Chalamet's tragic outfit
Last night, at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, the 92nd Academy Awards took place, amid some criticism for the absence of female directors and African-American artists. Among the historic Oscars won by Bong Joon Ho, the revival of Renèe Zellwegger and the first award won by Brad Pitt, the award ceremony was rather dull. And even the red carpet didn't have too many sparks, even if there were some surprises. Coming off the Independent Spirit Awards, it seems that celebrities had exhausted all their creative streak, although there are some lucky exceptions. It must be said that, at least, most of the looks were "green": either processed from sustainable materials, or vintage and recycled.
But there are a few disappointing ones: no mercy for Billy Porter and Billie Eilish, whose trademark was so original a year ago and so boring at the dawn of the new decade. Anothe letdown is Timothée Chalamet who according to The Cut was supposed to hit the red carpet with a backless outfit that would really be revolutionary and instead dressed as a ghostbuster or gas station attendant in a Prada workjacket completely unsuitable for a gala especially when completed with Danny Zucko-style hair. Eminem returns to the stage to sing "Lose Yourself" in memory of 8 Mile, but looks like an ex-boyfriend who never got past the end of his relationship with 2002. Greta Gerwig, on the other hand, seems to have literally stolen an old courtain to make her dress. Finally, Al Pacino and Robert De Niro, whose suits fitted so bad, enter the competition for the most trash couple of the week.
