Over the years, some Oscars fashion moments have gone down in history. From Audrey Hepburn’s iconic black Givenchy gown in 1954 to Lady Gaga’s statement-making, dramatic look at the 2019 Oscars, the ceremony has been full of unforgettable costume choices. Celebrities often choose to wear outfits that pay homage to their roles or the themes of the films they’re nominated for, making their costume choices even more meaningful. For instance, a nominee portraying a historical figure might opt for a classic, vintage-inspired look, while an actor nominated for a fantasy or sci-fi film might wear something more avant-garde and imaginative.
