Hollywood's biggest stars are out for the 97th annual Academy Awards.
Celebrities, including Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, and Felicity Jones, walked the Oscars red carpet at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on Sunday in elegant ensembles.
The looks can take hours of work for designers and their teams to bring to life, and dressing an A-list star for the Oscars can cost up to $10 million, though the average is around $1.5 million, WalletHub estimated.
