Below, ELLE’s picks for the 10 best-dressed celebrities of the evening.
Nicole Kidman
Nicole Kidman wore a Saint Laurent suit and tie, with her hair styled in effortless waves. This is our kind of corpcore.
Colman Domingo
Colman Domingo heard Pantone announced 'mocha mousse' as the color of 2025, and said, 'say less'. This chocolate-brown ensemble is simply divine.
Cynthia Erivo
This is a silhouette Cynthia Erivo has worn numerous times, but the leather texture and floral detailing at the waist of this Armani Privé look gives it an extra oomph.
Hannah Einbinder
We love the drama of this custom Louis Vuitton dress and Belperron earrings. The olive color is a perfect fit for Hannah Einbinder.
Danielle Deadwyler
This pastel pink hue is gorgeous on Danielle Deadwyler, as is the column silhouette and translucent tulle.
Marisa Abela
Sometimes a classic look makes the most impact—especially when it’s Dior and comes in this rich, gorgeous wine color.
Lupita Nyong’o
Lupita Nyong’o is mesmerizing in this contrasting Chanel look.
Demi Moore
A Schiaparelli dress that’s on-theme with Demi Moore’s award-winning movie, The Substance. Like the film, it’s unique but breath-taking.
Moeka Hoshi
The Shogun star wore Louis Vuitton and Pamela Zamore jewellery.
Ella Hunt
This sparkling Fendi gown makes Ella Hunt look like an award herself.
