2021 Academy Awards Red Carpet
| By: Tiffany Perez

Last night's Oscars set a high bar for fashion, despite the setback and changes made due to the pandemic. Despite the complete shocker of the Best Actor award going to Anthony Hopkins and not the late Chadwick Boseman, there were many winners for the evening and the awards were split pretty evenly this year. With Covid restrictions in place, the show was separated into two venues and given an innovative approach by making the awards seem like a movie about an award show from beginning to end. Not to upstage the atmosphere of the event, celebrities of all listings brought their A-game to the red carpet and we're going to tell you some of our favorite looks of the evening.
Maria Bakalova
Bringing Old Hollywood to the coveted red carpet, the 24 year old Maria Bakalova appeared in a gorgeous Louis Vuitton tulle and satin dress that featured various crystals and beads with a deep V-neck. Paired with diamond jewelry, classy up-do, and a red lip, Bakalova was absolutely stunning.

Angela Bassett
Never one to disappoint, Angela Bassett brought drama and glamour to the Oscars red carpet while wowing audiences around the world and fellow actors with her beauty. The notice-me red Alberta Ferretti gown with large dramatic sleeves and large slit in the skirt deserved an academy award all on its own.
