A Night of Oscars Magic
Fashion Predictions for the 2020 Oscars
Forget winter and summer—it’s time for the most exciting season of all: awards season! After watching our favorite stars at the Golden Globes in January, we’re eagerly counting down to February 10th to see what fashions will dazzle or disappoint us at the 2020 Oscars. So, what trends are likely to shine on the red carpet, and which celebrities are we most excited to see?
Predicted 2020 Oscars Fashion Trends
1. Sustainable Fashion
The push for more sustainable and eco-friendly fashion is stronger than ever, and celebrities are feeling the pressure. Expect to see dresses crafted from ethically sourced materials and possibly even vintage gowns. Some stars might take it a step further by wearing green or floral eco-friendly designs to highlight their commitment to the environment.
2. Political Statements
In past shows, celebrities have used the red carpet to voice their political beliefs. The 2018 Golden Globes, for example, saw many women wearing black to protest sexual harassment and support the Time’s Up movement. With numerous political issues in the spotlight this year, we’re eager to see how these will be reflected in stars’ outfits.
3. Breaking Gender Norms
Recent years have celebrated breaking gender fashion rules, like Billy Porter’s unforgettable black ball gown at the 2019 Met Gala and Angelina Jolie’s tux at the 2014 BAFTAs. This year, expect women in sharp tailored suits and men in more feminine styles, such as silk blouses or even kilts.
4. Jewel Tones
While a classic black dress is undeniably stylish, repeated monochrome looks can become dull over an awards season. This year, stars are likely to choose deep jewel tones, like dark green and rich purple, for gowns that are both elegant and striking.
Stars We’re Excited to See on the Oscars Red Carpet…
Jennifer Lopez
Fans were surprised Lopez didn’t get an Oscar nomination for her role in “Hustlers.” Despite rumors about her attendance, we hope she graces the red carpet with another iconic look as memorable as her green dress from the 2000 Grammys.
Billie Eilish
2020 is already a standout year for Eilish, performing the new James Bond theme song and winning five Grammys. With her quirky, oversized style, we’re curious to see if she’ll trade her neon shorts for a gown at the Oscars.
Joaquin Phoenix
Phoenix is favored to win Best Actor for “Joker.” Known for his love of sunglasses and black suits on the red carpet, he might surprise us this year with a bold red or purple suit as a nod to his film character.
Saoirse Ronan
At just 24, Ronan has made a significant fashion impact with her elegant red carpet choices. With three Oscar nominations already, this could be her winning year for “Little Women.” We’re eager to see if she’ll stick to her signature pink and pastel palette or choose something more adventurous.
