The Oscars, also known as the Academy Awards, is one of the most emblematic award ceremonies of all time, and as it celebrates its 94th ceremony, we of course had to talk about all the best looks that turned heads on the red carpet as well as the pre and after-parties. It came as no surprise to us that this year seemed to be dominated by the world’s most talented Arab designers. These looks were too good not to share, so here is a list of some of the best ones.
Venus Williams IN Elie Saab
Nomination for the King Richard movie based on her and her family’s lives, professional tennis player Venus Williams wore a custom Elie Saab white skin tight dress with a round, low-cut silver neckline on the 94th annual Academy Awards’ red carpet.
RAYA ABIRACHED in ZUHAIR MURAD
Proving sometimes less is more and classics never go out of style, Lebanese presenter Raya Abirached made homage to her Lebanese roots when she wore a simple, yet elegant strapless black silk ball gown to the 94th Academy Awards red carpet from the Zuhair Murad RTW Pre-Fall 2022 Collection.
Heidi Klum IN Elie Saab
Of course this former Victoria’s Secret angel had to include feathers within her stunning look, and model Heidi Klum did it well. She wore a Haute Couture Elie Saab silver embellished, nude-coloured mini dress, paired with a nude feather coat to the Elton John Foundation’s 30th annual Academy Awards viewing party.
Chrissy Teigen in Georges Hobeika
The always emblematic signature Angelina Jolie-inspired high leg slit could not be missed at this year’s Oscars and Model Chrissy Teigen wore it best in a Georges Hobeika one-strap, gray and silver garnished cut-out dress with a leg slit that gradually led to a flowing tail as she headed to the 2022 Vanity Fair Oscar Party.

To mix up her style a bit, YouTuber Tessa Brooks attended the Darren & Richie Oscar Party 2022 wearing a silver glittery mid cut-out halter neckline mini dress with draping front and back overlay skirt by Rami Kadi.
Lori Harvey in Tony Ward
Bodysuits and mesh seem to be a trend we could not help but notice and model Lori Harvey definitely rocked it at the 2022 Vanity Fair Oscar Party. She wore a strapless bodysuit with silver details and a statement abstract piece on top, paired with an overlay long meshed skirt by Tony Ward.
Joan Smalls in Elie Saab
This dress was so perfectly fitted, it almost seemed to have been encrusted on to Joan Smalls’ body, at the 2022 Vanity Fair Oscar Party. The Puerto Rican model wore a head-turning long-sleeve silver embellished nude Haute Couture dress with white feathers by Elie Saab.
CAROLINA GAITÁN in TONY WARD
Looking like an ‘Encanto,‘ Colombian actress and singer Carolina Gaitán, also known as La Gaita, was spotted at the 94th Academy Awards red carpet wearing a Tony Ward Haute Couture SS 2022 collection fuchsia drape-style dress with detached-sleeves, that ended in a gradual leg slit and a long draping tail.
Kate Beckinsale in Zuhair Murad
Giving us all the mesh and sparkle was English actress Kate Beckinsale who wore a unique black hand-beaded strapless bodysuit with long tulle sleeves over the top that ended in a mesh, beaded mermaid-style bottom from the Zuhair Murad SS 2022 Collection to the 2022 Vanity Fair Oscar Party.
Christine (Baumgartner) Costner in Tony Ward
This Hollywood couple looked gorgeous at the 94th Academy Awards red carpet, but model Christine Costner became the star of the show when she wore a Haute Couture gray, plunging strapless neckline dress by Tony Ward with a black pattern that turned silver as it dissolved towards the bottom of the gown.

MILA KUNIS IN ZUHAIR MURAD
That 70s Show actress Mila Kunis wore a satin rose-coloured dress with an asymmetrical neckline from the Zuhair Murad Haute Couture SS 2022 Collection to the 94th annual Academy Awards red carpet that seemed to perfectly drape over her silhouette.
MONICA BARBARO in ELIE SAAB

KIERNAN SHIPKA IN ELIE SAAB
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina star and everyone’s favourite witch Kiernan Shipka was spotted wearing a long black, plunge neckline Elie Saab dress with layers of lace cutouts at the bottom to the 2022 Vanity Fair Oscar Party. Who ever said witches can’t be stylish?
