The Oscars red carpet was colored champagne, not red for 2023, and the stars played along with the tweaking of an icon, with the color white and fairytale flounce-and-fringing a major fashion theme of the evening. (Miss Havisham would have felt right at home.) But there were splashes of color and daring, and punky touches too (thank you Florence Pugh and Cara Delevingne). And the men had fun too, particularly Dwayne Johnson in a shiny, peachy-pinky tux.
