oscars looks and books
One of the best parts of awards season is seeing what everyone wears. From floor-length gowns to incredibly tailored suits, here’s a reading list based on the best Oscars looks.Lily Gladstone’s gown was a collaboration between Gucci and Joe Big Mountain of Ironhouse Quillwork. Its midnight blue velvet fabric with floral quillwork motifs perfectly matches the cover of “Heir” by Sabaa Tahir, a ruthless and romantic new fantasy set in the same world as her beloved “Ember” series.Da’Vine Joy Randolph wore a custom baby blue Louis Vuitton gown to accept her win for best supporting actress. The shimmering bodice and boa-like sleeves match the cover of “Evil Eye” by Etaf Rum, a work of literary fiction about a Palestinian American woman learning how to balance her responsibilities as a wife, mother, and working woman.Colman Domingo wore a Louis Vuitton suit with a western twist to the awards. The double-breasted suit with intricate buttons and flared trousers over steel-toed cowboy boots match the cover of the dark academia fantasy novel “The Atlas Six” by Olivie Blake.Zendaya’s stunning pink and sparkly silver gown from Armani Privé featured an asymmetrical top with a bustier and slightly ruched, flowy skirt. It matches the cover of “Foul Lady Fortune” by Chloe Gong, which is a historical spy thriller and spin-off of her esteemed historical fantasy duology, “These Violent Delights.”America Ferrera wore a shimmering pink chainmail gown with a low neckline and tight bodice from Versace. It goes well with “A Shot in the Dark” by Victoria Lee, a novel featuring a passionate romance between a transgender man and an ex-Orthodox woman and their devotion to art.Ke Huy Quan wore a deep red double-breasted Giorgio Armani suit with amber shades to match. The sharp ensemble matches well with the cover of “Faebound,” a sapphic fantasy that follows two elven sisters who get imprisoned in the sinister world of fae, written by Saara El-Arifi.
