Oscars red carpet: Stars and fashion in pictures

If the Oscars gave out an award for best dressed, it would be the most hotly contested prize of the night.
Hollywood's biggest stars are turning on the style as they walk the red carpet for the glittering ceremony in Los Angeles on Sunday.
They included One Battle After Another's Chase Infiniti (below), who has announced herself as both a major actress and a fashion icon this year, and who wore a lavender custom Louis Vuitton gown.

Rose Byrne, nominated for If I Had Legs I'd Kick You, wore a black custom Dior dress embroidered with an intricate floral pattern.

Best actress favourite Jessie Buckley capped off an awards campaign for the ages in red and pink - a change from her usually subdued colour palette.

British actress Wunmi Mosaku, nominated for best supporting actress for Sinners, cradled her baby bump in a glittering gown with a cut-out shoulder.

Norwegian actress Renate Reinsve, nominated for Sentimental Value, has favoured Louis Vuitton throughout her awards season campaign. For the Oscars, she wore a simple yet striking custom red Louis Vuitton dress by Nicolas Ghesquiere.

Demi Moore, last year nominated for her daring comeback role in The Substance, returned and went full-on in feathers in a Gucci creation.

British actress Felicity Jones, who is in best picture nominee Train Dreams, picked pale yellow Prada.

Songwriter Diane Warren, who is nominated for best original song and is hoping for 17th time lucky at the Oscars, wore an elegant satin suit topped off with a black neck bow.
