If the Oscars bring Hollywood together under one roof, the Vanity Fair Oscar Party is where they truly shine. Known as the event where celebrities can shed the seriousness of awards season and make bold, jaw-dropping fashion statements, the Vanity Fair red carpet has once again cemented itself as the ultimate stage for experimentation. And in 2025, attendees didn’t disappoint.

This year was no different, with celebrities taking audacious risks and redefining whats fashionable in their own unique ways. From naked dresses to intricate monochromatic menswear, here’s a breakdown of who pushed boundaries and the trends that owned the night.

Zoë Kravitz Turns a Cheeck in YSL

With Zoë Kravitz, nothing is off-limits. The “Big Little Lies” star turned heads in a daring YSL gown featuring a bold cutout that showcased one of the most unexpected looks of the evening—butt cleavage. Minimalist yet provocative, the look had everyone talking. Zoë’s ability to make even the riskiest designs look effortless once again affirmed her place as a fashion trailblazer.

Doja Cat Stuns in Body Art by Balmain

Doja Cat walked the Vanity Fair red carpet in a sparkly, full-length gown that did more than cover her up—it celebrated the human form. Courtesy of Balmain, the dress featured intricate body-shaped designs faintly etched into glittery fabric, turning her into a walking sculpture. It was restrained yet edgy and showcased why Doja is a favorite of the avant-garde fashion world.

Julia Fox Pushes Boundaries with Dilara Findikoglu’s Artistic Vision

Julia Fox has made her name synonymous with bold statements, and her appearance at Vanity Fair was no exception. Sporting a sheer Dilara Findikoglu dress featuring woven human hair as a design element, Fox blurred lines between fashion and performance art.

Lily-Rose Depp Keeps It Chic With Chanel

Lily-Rose Depp embraced a look that was both romantic and playful. Dressed in a Chanel two-piece ensemble featuring a floral crop top paired with a flowing green skirt, she combined a freshness with a vintage-inspired twist. It was a breath of spring on an otherwise glitzy, high-octane night, proving she can shine even amidst bold risks.

The Trends That Defined the Night

1. Naked and Barely There Dresses

This year’s red carpet put skin front and center, with sheer fabrics, cutouts, and strategically placed embellishments ruling the night. Inspired by the likes of Julia Fox and Zoë Kravitz, it was clear that the “less is more” mantra has officially taken hold on Hollywood’s riskiest red carpet.

2. Men in Monochrome

Not to be outdone, the men at Vanity Fair showed a sharp sartorial edge by leaning into monochromatic ensembles. From sleek tailored suits to bold metallic brooches that added a touch of sparkle, they proved you don’t need color to make a statement—sometimes, the devil’s in the details.

3. Unexpected Textures & Fabrics

Sheer materials, woven accents (as Julia Fox demonstrated), and sculptural design touches like Doja Cat’s dress showed that textures—not just cuts—could command attention.

4. Statement Brooches

The accessory of choice for the men this year was the statement brooch. Pinned to jackets and lapels, these bold, sparkly pieces enhanced otherwise minimalist outfits, proving that accessories aren’t just for the ladies.

More than just a post-Oscars bash, the Vanity Fair Oscar Party remains one of the top events of awards season. The risk-taking, the confidence, and the celebration of individuality make it a night that defines modern Hollywood glamour.
