It's Hollywood's biggest night and despite the global pandemic, some big stars turned out in person for the 2021 Academy Awards! And since it was one of the first real red carpets in a long time, the fashion was definitely on point. Wonderwall.com is rounding up the fancy night's best and worst dressed stars, starting with this puzzling pick from Laura Dern. The actress arrived in this perplexing Oscar de la Renta number, which started out simple enough as a mockneck, long sleeved frock before giving way to a ridiculous asymmetrical feathered skirt below the hips. Despite despising the strange dress, we did adore her shoe choice. See those and more fashion hits and misses of the night next…

We were disappointed by Reese Witherspoon's Dior dress on Oscar night.

We weren't wild about Glenn Close's Armani Prive getup. The iconic actress donned this electric blue tunic with crystal beading, which on its own was beautiful, but when paired with midnight blue silk pants and evening gloves this look took a turn.

Let's zoom in…

Legendary actress Rita Moreno committed to a bold burgundy shade at the Oscars — from her coat to her dress to her jewelry.

Riz Ahmed's Prada look mixed formal and casual in a surprising way for menswear — sporting both a mock turtleneck and a cummerbund with his Prada tuxedo. The risky mix paid off and he completed his look with sharp black dress shoes.
