Rita Moreno wore a huge smile and a statement black gown, and Brittany Snow popped in bright yellow on the Oscars red carpet Sunday for Hollywood's big night with a show of red, black, metallics and another drop-dead gorgeous gown for Laverne Cox.
Moreno, at 92, waved to photographers as she showed off her look. Snow offered a refreshing show of color in a bright strapless custom Monot dress paired with a statement choker.
Cox, working the carpet for E!, was the epitome of Old Hollywood glam in an hourglass look of black and low-plunging gold, her hair piled high as she fluttered a feather-light neck piece that trailed behind. Her look is vintage Mugler.
Many men stuck to black in tuxedos and other looks, and there was a predictable spray of sequins for the women. White and off-white looks also represented.
Red, an “IT” color of the awards season, had some early enthusiasts as arrivals heated up. Some walking the carpet wore red pins supporting a cease fire in Gaza.
The Oscars begin at 7 p.m. EDT Sunday at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.
