As Stars Gathered for the Oscars, This Dress Took Center Stage
The 97th Oscars ceremony unfolded on the night of March 2, 2025, drawing a spectacular turnout from actors and actresses eager to celebrate another year of cinematic achievements. As expected, the glamour was at an all-time high with attendees donning outfits from the world’s top fashion houses.
A significant trend among the celebrities this year was the use of soft pink hues, but it was the lace that truly dominated the evening’s fashion scene. This wasn’t limited to just accessories like tights or gloves; stars incorporated lace directly into their main attire.
One of the standout moments was Lily-Rose Depp making her Oscars debut in a stunning Chanel dress, a design based on a 1995 archive piece. Crafted in black lace, this dress required a whopping 515 hours to complete and featured about 191,000 embroidery elements, as reported by Vogue. “What makes this dress particularly special is that it’s crafted from the same lace worn by Marilyn Monroe back in 1953 during the premiere of ‘How to Marry a Millionaire’,” the “Nosferatu” star shared with the magazine.
Black Lace Dominates the Scene
The gothic romantic trend, heavily featured on recent runways, was well represented at the Oscars. For instance, Haute Couture silhouettes from Dior showcased this style effectively.
Kendall Jenner also opted for black lace, wearing a vintage Mugler dress from 1992 to the Oscars after-party, originally worn by Eva Herzigova at a fashion show. The dress’s glossy black lace and long, flared sleeves gave it a dramatic, gothic look that would impress even Morticia Addams.
Kylie Jenner followed suit with a black lace gown by Ashi Studio, featuring a corseted and sheer design, perfectly aligning with the contemporary trend of visible lingerie.
Dove Cameron chose a dress that revealed a black lace bodysuit beneath a long, sheer train, a piece from Georges Hobeika’s Spring/Summer 2025 collection. Similarly, BlackPink’s Lisa wore a Miss Sohee outfit consisting of a leather corset paired with a black lace bodysuit. Emily Ratajkowski was seen at the Oscars after-party in a black lace dress by Ludovic de Saint Sernin.
The Unmistakable Choice of the Evening
It seemed as if there was a secret agreement among the stars: black lace was undoubtedly the garment of choice. This was further highlighted at the Chloé fashion show on March 6, where lace accounted for 63% of the collection, according to Tagwalk. Clearly, this is one trend that cannot be overlooked this season!
