The 95th Academy Awards (Oscars) were held on Sunday, March 12th at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. Celebrities brought their A-game to this year’s champagne carpet (that replaced the awards’ traditional red carpet to offer a more elegant, formal and evening vibe) and with stunning hair, beauty and fashion. Here’s a roundup of looks that caught our attention.
