Hollywood’s power ladies showed up dressed to impress last Sunday. Leading the charge was Jane Fonda, who channeled her inner Boss with a strong-shouldered white Balmain gown. Robbie Margo, a Best Actress Nominee was also clad in white, opting for an elegant off-shoulder dress by Chanel. Fellow nominee Saoirse Ronan looked pretty in pink in a sleeveless Ralph Lauren creation.

Bold colours also dominated the Oscars 2018 red carpet. Allison Janney, winner of Best Supporting Actress, was the epitome of class in a flowing red number by Reem Acra. Not to be outdone, Nicole Kidman put her best foot forward in a high-slitted royal blue Armani Prive design.

Shimmering threads were also in abundance, with Wonder Woman actress Gal Gadot shining bright in a silver Givenchy dress. Meanwhile, Nupita Nyong’o of Black Panther fame glowed in a golden Atelier Versace number.

Frances McDormand, who won Best Actress for her role in Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, raised some eyebrows in a rather drab gold-on-black outfit. But she won everyone over with a moving acceptance speech, which saw her acknowledge and pay homage to all her fellow nominees. The inspirational move reminded attendees and viewers alike of the need to treasure bonds of sisterhood among all women. Happy Women’s Day!
