Oscars 2024: An evening of glitz, glamor, and viral moments
This past Sunday in Los Angeles, the luminaries assembled at the venerable Dolby Theater for the 96th Academy Awards made for an evening to remember. As usual, the evening was full with unforgettable events, surprising revelations, and—of course—much of fashion buzz from the red carpet.
The ceremony itself presented no shortage of happenings worthy of headlines. Among the most strange was John Cena’s comic n-de walk across the stage to accept the Best Costume Design award—a scene that had viewers both in the auditorium and at home laughing and wondering. To further add to the disarray, Hollywood icon Al Pacino made his own stir by skipping the customary reading of nominees for Best Film and straight to declaring the winner, a move that caused a lot of debate and entertainment value.
Fashion Front and Center
Still, it was not only the accolades or on-stage antics that drew interest as with every Oscars event. Once more a stunning display of celebrity style, the red carpet included amazing clothing that went viral on the internet. The event once more demonstrated how often fashion debates take front stage in the era of social media as fans and detractors analyze every element of their favorite stars’ decisions in real time.
Among the outstanding performers this year were TV anchor Kelly Ripa and her husband, Mark Consuelos. Though the pair created waves with their synchronized look, Kelly’s bold black, see-through gown really took centre stage. After Ripa posted a picture of her outfit on Instagram with the description “Mom and dad storming the red carpet,” the gorgeous yet provocative garment ignited discussions online right away.

Not Everybody Was Attracted
Not everyone, meanwhile, was a fan of the audacious fashion choices—as is sometimes the case. Along with the appreciation, there were many detractors not bashful in expressing their ideas.
