The Academy Museum Gala Red Carpet Roundup

Kaia Gerber Alaia

Here is a roundup from the red carpet for the 2022 Academy Museum Gala on Saturday (October 15) in Los Angeles, California.

Kaia Gerber’s Alaïa Spring 2023 sheer turtleneck body and harness skirt is in my top two of the night with Eiza González.

On this occasion it is not so much the look itself.  It’s the way she’s selling it.

Hailey Bieber Saint Laurent

I probably would’ve had the same feeling about Hailey Bieber in Saint Laurent, but this dress was giving me a mild case of déjà vu.

Tiffany & Co. jewels completed her look.

Alexa Demie was serving up neo gothic chic in Balenciaga Fall 2022 Haute Couture.

Christina Ricci in Vivienne Westwood

While I do love Christina Ricci in this Vivienne Westwood gown, I wasn’t sold on the hair and makeup.

Graziela jewels completed her look.

Diana Silvers in Prada

Diana Silvers’ Prada black satin gown with a double white satin panel and graphic knot train works better from the front than the side for me.

Jodie Turner-Smith in Gucci

Jodie Turner-Smith is going to do Jodie Turner-Smith and stand out in Gucci.

To some this might be a fancy bathrobe to me, but I love this look, even if I wasn’t fond of the black choker.

Julia Roberts in Thom Browne
The Academy Museum Gala

Julia Roberts continues with her love for tailoring wearing Thom Browne which she styled with Chopard jewels.

Julianna Margulies looked beautiful wearing a Zuhair Murad Fall 2021 Couture black and green fully beaded A-line strapless ball gown styled with a Tyler Ellis clutch.

Keke Palmer was not to be missed in this Act N°1 tailored suit elevated by an explosion of blue tulle.

Laura Harrier in The Row

Laura Harrier stayed true to her minimalists’ style in The Row with Jimmy Choo Minny sandals.

You may remember that Zoe Saldana wore this same dress to the ‘Gordita Chronicles’ Los Angeles premiere back in June.

Lena Dunham in Factory New York
The Academy Museum Gala Red Carpet Roundup

I know this Factory New York satin gown might not get much credit, but I love the shades of blue on Lena Dunham, and the fantasy element imbued by her styling.

Leslie Mann in Paco Rabanne

Leslie Mann opted for a high neck, cut-out dress from Paco Rabanne styled with Jennifer Meyer jewels.

Mia Goth in Armani

Mia Goth signals that the Italian widow era is over, wearing a simple black velvet dress from Armani.

Actually, maybe it’s not over.

Jimmy Choo Romy pumps completed her look.

Mindy Kaling in Naeem Khan

I’m not at all surprised to see Mindy Kaling wearing this dark blue Naeem Khan sequined gown, as she tends to save her colourful looks for her own projects.

Natasha Lyonne in Gucci

If anyone is going to pull off a studded and spike Gucci look, that person is Natasha Lyonne.

Regina Hall in David Koma

Between the feather and the embellishments, Regina Hall’s dress was instantly recognisable as David Koma.

She styled her look with complementary silver sandals and a clutch from Tyler Ellis.

Selma Blair in Thom Browne

‘Dancing with the Stars’ star Selma Blair wore a Thom Browne look which I feel would’ve been best suited for someone older.

Roger Vivier I Love Vivier pumps complete her look.

Thuso Mbedu in Giambattista Valli

Thuso Mbedu wore a beautiful Giambattista Valli Fall 2017 Haute Couture two-piece look which has a fairy-tale feel to it which she styled with Jimmy Choo Pattie platforms.

Tilda Swinton wore another Schiaparelli Fall 2022 black velvet dress, but this one was accented with more embellishments than her look from last week.
