Say it ain’t so! The 2025-2026 award season has officially come to a close. But not without delivering one—well, technically two if you count the Vanity Fair Oscar Party—final red carpet, thanks to the 98th annual Academy Awards. Sartorially speaking, it was a night of incredible highs and exciting whoas, from Best Actress winner Jessie Buckley’s elegant nod to Grace Kelly and Teyana Taylor’s unexpected feather-adorned Chanel by Matthieu Blazy moment to Elle Fanning’s antique Cartier necklace and Chase Infiniti’s lilac ruffled gown. After months and months of buildup, Hollywood’s biggest night never disappoints with celebs and their stylists pulling out all of the stops.

Another case in point: Bruna Marquezine. Debuting a fresh bob, the Brazilian actress was radiant in custom Gucci. The sparkling, hand-crafted silver strapless gown worn with Wempe jewelry (including a 43-Carat diamond necklace), fit Marquezine like a glove, with the crystal-encrusted silhouette catching the light beautifully at every angle. The look, styled by Dani Michelle with hair by Danielle Priano and makeup by Diane Buzzetta, evoked timeless glamour with a modern twist.

The actress invited Who What Wear inside her getting ready suite to capture all the stunning details.

What does your Oscar morning look like?

My Oscar morning is usually very calm. I like to wake up slowly, have a light breakfast, listen to music, and take a moment for myself before everything starts. It’s a long and exciting day, so I try to begin it with a peaceful mindset.

What was the direction for your glam look? Did you and your team look at any specific references?

We wanted something classic yet modern and elegant. The idea was to complement the dress and keep the focus on a timeless beauty look.
