Billy Porter just shut down the red carpet at the Oscars wearing a hybrid tuxedo and ballgown by designer Christian Siriano.
The Pose actor is known for his extravagant awards show looks, and tonight is no exception as Twitter is fully freaking out over his incredible look.

This dress is a hot pink duvet of a gown. A very fancy bed-in-a-bag. And yet…she looks great in it, somehow seeming casual and easy in what must be 2,000 yards of fabric.

Kacey Musgraves walked the Oscars red carpet on Sunday wearing a voluminous pink gown with a high collar.
Twitter users didn’t waste the opportunity to make a new meme and joked a lot about her loofahs-looking dress.
Hey Kacey Musgraves, can I please have my shower loofah back when you're done wearing it to the #Oscars ? pic.twitter.com/etbRGrgGp3

Linda went very big and dramatic at her awards-season swan song, and while her pendulum might’ve swung a tad too far in the other direction—that dress is nearly overshadowing her—we are grateful it moved at all.
And following the loofahs-dresses joke:
a new trend maybe? pic.twitter.com/LoXjc309kO

Lady Gaga arrived on the red carpet in a black Alexander McQueen gown and matching leather gloves. She was also wearing a striking yellow diamond – the Tiffany Yellow Diamond, a 128.54-carat stone that was popularized in a publicity shoot for Breakfast at Tiffany’s on the neck of Audrey Hepburn, who was also the last person to wear it.

Jason Momoa
Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet are well-known for their kooky style and cavalier red carpet looks.
So the edgy couple naturally pulled out all the stops as they attended Sunday evening during which they paraded the red carpet in complimentary Fendi outfits, with the Aquaman hunk donning a pink velvet suit and his wife a coordinating gown.

On the 2019 red carpet, Emma took a risk with a daring, sharp-shoulder Louis Vuitton outfit, featuring lots and lots of copper sequins.
“Emma Stone, waffle cone,” one Twitter user wrote. An Emma Stone fan account tweeted, “Emma Stone cosplaying KitKat at the tonight’s Oscars,” while someone else called tweeted her look is reminiscent of a “stroopwafel.”

The 61-year-old picked up three nominations for “BlacKkKlansman,” winning in the Best Adapted Screenplay category.
He stepped out on the red carpet in a bold purple Ozwald Boateng suit that played homage to Prince, which he teamed with a custom-made necklace by Amedeo Scognamiglio that was made of gold, diamonds and opals.

There’s a lot to praise here, is what we’re saying. But absolutely none of that applies to her dress, which is a dingy color, severe fit, and less than the rest of her deserves.

There’s so much we’re going to miss now that the Crazy Rich Asians press tour has well and truly concluded, but most of all—even more than Henry Golding’s face—we are lamenting the upcoming break in seeing Michelle on red carpets looking perfect from top to toe.
