The Oscars! It’s the one major awards show that everyone cares about, regardless of whether or not they’ve seen the big movies of the year, or have hot takes on the nominees, or even if they insist that they do not care, and one of the reasons for that is that it’s one of the big times in modern society that we can all rejoice in the glitz and glamour of Famous People. These are some of the most fancy people in the world, getting as fancy as they could possibly get until next year, and it’s all ostensibly about celebrating The Movies: The Whale’s Brendan Fraser, Everything Everywhere All At Once’s Jamie Lee Curtis, Elizabeth Olsen, and Hong Chau all showed up early, looking sharp, and they deserve to be recognized.

So, before the show actually starts, before there are any winners or losers, let’s take some time to appreciate famous people being fancy by looking at the most exciting red carpet arrivals at the 2023 Academy Awards. (It’s actually a champagne-colored carpet, but that’s okay.)
