Emma Stone

And the Academy Award for best dressed women goes to...all the leading ladies in this gallery!

Starting with Emma and her gilded, vintage-inspired Givenchy haute couture number. Just the movement alone is worthy of an award.

Taraji P. Henson

This Alberta Ferretti dress is killer! Can't choose a favorite detail between the cut of the neckline, the length of the slit and the fact she went with navy over black. Honorable mention: Those Nirav Modi jewels around her neck and finger.

Jessica Biel

This gold Kaufman Franco number is refreshingly bold. That gorgeous neck piece is really what hits the look home for us—it's a bold choice but the risk completely paid off.

Olivia Culpo

Olivia's Marchesa dress is not only stunning—who doesn't love a fringe-clad silver siren?—but it was also made for a cause, which puts it above and beyond in our books. (Bonus points for all thatIrene Neuwirth jewelry, too.)

Octavia Spencer

This Marchesa dress and her Forevermark Diamonds are a winning combination of the perfect silhouette, gorgeous color palette and just enough bling.

Isabelle Huppert

The Elle actress' Armani Privé look is perfectly balanced by its feminine details (the shimmering beadwork, dainty belt, draped silhouette) and edgy add-ons (her dark lips and nails and envy-enducing ear cuff).

Naomie Harris

For the Oscars red carpet, this is definitely an unexpected choice, but that's what makes the Calvin Klein ensemble so special. Not to mention, edgy.

Brie Larson

Va-va-voom! Brie's looking mighty sultry in this custom, voluminous Oscar de la Renta dress. It might just be the sexiest we've seen her!

Viola Davis

In a sea of blacks, whites, nudes and metallics, Viola's Armani gown is a powerful pop of color.

Janelle Monae

Hats off to Elie Saab for creating and constructing such a dress. Every part is detail-packed! And her Forevermark Diamonds accessories compliment it perfectly.

Nicole Kidman

Nicole's patterned Armani Privé naked dress is perfect, as always.

Salma Hayek

In all-black it's sometimes difficult to show personality, but Salma's Alexander McQueen gown has so many subtle details that make it unique.

Karlie Kloss

The supermodel's ethereal Stella McCartney dress is perfect with that thick choker—it's giving the illusion of a high neck where there isn't one and it works.

Darby Stanchfield

Darby's Georges Chakra Couture gown is a lesson in how to keep things interesting in an all-white number. The textured bottom is incredible and that metallic Rubeus Milano clutch is, too.

Priyanka Chopra

The Quantico star looks heavenly in this structured Ralph & Russo number.

This boundary-pushing, velvet Elizabeth Kennedy gown is stunning and bold! Basically, Busy made all the right choices for the Oscars red carpet.
