And the red carpet goes to ... the women in red, for one, with equal accolades for shiny and shimmery gold worthy of the Oscars, this and all years.


Long sleeves and belts played major roles Sunday in Los Angeles at the Dolby Theatre, along with a beautiful Janelle Monae Zane Gonzalez Jersey , transformed in Elie Saab Haute Couture into a busy but fabulous fashion city of black tulle, birds, lace, feathers, sequins, crystal stones and a head piece that served as the perfect topper.


There were some midnight blues, including Meryl Streep's sparkly Elie Saab with trousers, and a smattering of blah black. Among the night's trends were velvet Howard Wilson Jersey , worn Old Hollywood style by Henson, Brie Larson and Michelle Williams, and metallics, including a fierce Charlize Theron, Emma Stone and Jessica Biel.


All in all, the clunkers were few.


Some highlights:

THE REDS


Viola Davis rocked the color as she picked up a best supporting actress Oscar for her role in "Fences." She wore silk Armani Prive in vermillion, with the perfect halter neck falling into a pleated capelet effect off the shoulders. Her short hair with bangs swept to one side let the dress shine and she kept jewelry to a minimum.


"It was a perfect shade of red on her," said Adam Glassman Larry Ogunjobi Jersey , creative director for O magazine and a special correspondent for Extra TV. "The color red was a symbol of hope and optimism. We are living in dark times, and perhaps by choosing red she is symbolizing HOPE. The gown was sensual and elegant at the same time. The draped capelet detail was so flattering on her. Her body looked amazing in it. It was stylish without trying too hard."


Ruth Negga wore her red Valentino Haute Couture by Pierpaolo Piccioli with a blue ACLU ribbon and Irene Neuwirth jewelry featuring Gemfields responsibly sourced Mozambican rubies. Her jewels included a head piece not all could pull off, but she did so effortlessly. The gown included a high lace collar and skimmed the ground, her makeup a perfect match on eyelids and lips.


"It proves you don't have to be plungy and show lots of excess flesh to look sexy and beautiful," said Avril Graham, the executive fashion and beauty editor for Harper's Bazaar U.S. "The fact that she wore those rubies played into that sustainable trend and were a great modern take."


Auli'i Cravalho, at 16, killed her first Oscars performance David Njoku Jersey , singing "How Far I'll go" from "Moana" in, yes, another standout red gown.

THE GOLDS


Stone led the pack in a custom Givenchy Haute Couture by Riccardo Tisci. It was a long dress in all-over embroidered nude lace with fishnet detailing and gold and bronze crystals. It had tiers of fringe that lent a tad of flapper without going overboard. Her red lip color and swingy, matching earrings from Tiffany and Co. went a long way.


She was "finished with Old Hollywood worthy waves," said Kerry Pieri, the digital fashion and features director for Harper's Bazaar. "This was glamour at its best, finished with a subtle Planned Parenthood pin."


Dakota Johnson took one of the night's biggest risks. She wore a long-sleeve, strong-shouldered sweeping silk gown with a waist tie. The dress was Gucci and paired with a vintage Cartier necklace. "And it paid off Jabrill Peppers Jersey ," Pieri said.


Gold turned Champagne hewed on Nicole Kidman, in Armani Prive, and Felicity Jones, in princessy Dior Haute Couture. Amy Adams wore plunging metallic silver as a presenter, courtesy of Tom Ford. It was embroidered with silver bugle beads, had long sleeves and was cut wide open nearly to her waist.


Theron, Graham said, "knocked it out of the water Myles Garrett Jersey , as always. The metallic moment was amazing."


Theron was "Grecian Goddess meets Glamazon" in her pleated Dior Haute Couture that plunged at the neck and was set free to flow below the waist, Glassman said. And that's not a bad thing.
