Best: Lady Gaga in Brandon Maxwell at the 88th Academy Awards on Feb. 28, 2016, in Hollywood, California.
Wearing a white jumpsuit with a train, Lady Gaga brought innovation to the red carpet. Not only did the piece look amazing on the singer, it also made her feel confident. “I never thought anyone would ever love me because I felt like my body was ruined by my abuser,” Gaga shared in an Instagram post from the ceremony alongside a photo of her kissing her fiancé, Taylor Kinney. “But he loves the survivor in me. He’s stood by me all night proud and unashamedly. THATS a real man.” (Photo: Getty Images)

Worst: Brie Larson in Gucci at the 88th Academy Awards on Feb. 28, 2016, in Hollywood, California.
Brie Larson aims to use fashion to reflect what her soul looks like, but if that’s the case, then her soul is super-confused. Wearing a busy royal blue dress from Gucci, she accessorized with an encrusted belt, then proceeded to add even more bling with hair jewels. (Photo: Getty Images)

Best: Jared Leto in Gucci at the 88th Academy Awards on Feb. 28, 2016 in Hollywood, California.
Jared Leto, who presented with Margot Robbie, took Gucci’s creative director Alessandro Michele as his date, so it comes as no surprise that he’s wearing a complete look from the brand. The face of the Italian brand’s fragrance, Leto proved to be a great pick by being one of the only men able to pull of a flower bolo tie. (Photo: Getty Images)
