Madison – who went on to pick up one of the most prestigious awards of the night, Best Actress for her role in Anora – stepped onto the red carpet looking every inch the Old Hollywood movie star in a black-and-pink satin ballgown, complete with a dramatic train and a beautiful bow.
The 'Anora' star prepped for the 97th Academy Awards while wearing Petite Plume, which has been worn by everyone from Prince George to the Kardashians.
As the brash, bubblegum-smacking Ani in Anora, Mikey Madison wore Russian Sable furs and bandage dresses from ten trend cycles ago. But on the 2025 Oscars red carpet, Madison presented a polar opposite fashion narrative that was less loud luxury and more aligned with the glamour of Hollywood’s Golden Age.
Madison's version of the little black dress is a Dior bow-embellished gown, a reproduction of an original silhouette created by Christian Dior himself. Other actresses also bet on
Much like her ‘Anora’ character’s dedication to her bold beauty look, Madison has stayed true to her glam identity all season long.
This is the first Oscar nomination for Mikey, who’s in the Best Actress category thanks to her work in Anora along with some pretttttty major names. Ahem: Cynthia Erivo for Wicked, Karla Sofia Gascón for Emilia Pérez, Demi Moore for The Substance, and Fernanda Torres for I’m Still Here.
The Anora star’s jewelry choice taught us the most important lesson of jewelry—that it lasts.
For her first Academy Awards, Mikey Madison channeled old Hollywood glamour, wearing a Dior gown on Sunday in Los Angeles on the red carpet. Her Oscars dress featured a structured strapless black velvet bodice and a flowing, voluminous pastel pink satin skirt. A decorative pink bow and a dramatic train completed the look.
