So the Oscars award happened and while we have a lot to say about it, we’ll stick to what we do most and best here at ThriveNaija, Fashion.
The 92nd Oscar took place on Mon, 10 Feb, 2:00 am WAT, we were all definitely asleep by then, this part of the world, at Dolby Theatre, Los Angeles, California, United States. While we can’t give you the full deets on who won what, and how did the speeches go, we’ll leave Hollywood Reporter do the honours, we’re sharing with you, what we think are the best gowns worn by your favorite celebs to the award show.
Of course, the event featured diverse styles but it was no doubt that gown styles were the order of the day as we saw them in diverse, creative and stunning styles. Without further ado, here are the most talked-about outfits at the 92nd Oscars awards ceremony.
