Timothée Chalamet, Kylie Jenner and Jessie Buckley among best-dressed at Vanity Fair Oscar Party 2026

Timothée Chalamet, Kylie Jenner and Jessie Buckley were among stars to lead the red carpet fashion at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party.

One of Hollywood’s most coveted invitations, the Vanity Fair Oscar Party has an ultra-exclusive guest list, which brings together Oscar winners, actors, musicians, fashion designers, athletes and industry power players.

More than three decades after it first began at Morton’s restaurant in Los Angeles, the Vanity Fair Oscar Party remains one of the most glamorous fixtures on the awards-season calendar.

This year the party relocated to the soon-to-be-reopened Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), but the spirit remained the same, as a place where stars swap the formality of the Oscars ceremony for more fun and relaxed fashion choices.

Among the most talked-about arrivals were actor Timothée Chalamet and reality star and businesswoman Kylie Jenner.

Marty Supreme star Chalamet, 30, arrived in a second white suit of the evening after wearing custom Givenchy at the Oscars ceremony.

The actor had been nominated for best actor but ultimately lost out on the award following his controversial comments about ballet and opera which went viral last week. Chalamet was also the butt of one the most viral jokes in host Conan O’Brien’s opening monologue.

Jenner, 28, founder of Kylie Cosmetics, posed alongside Chalamet in a black feathered two-piece by British fashion house McQueen.

Irish actress and Oscar winner Jessie Buckley attended in a black V-neck evening gown. Buckley won her Oscar for her role in Hamnet, having previously won a Golden Globe and Critics Choice award for her portrayal of William Shakespeare’s wife.

Kim Kardashian opted for a high-neck shimmering column gown by Gucci. Kardashian, who rose to fame on Keeping Up With The Kardashians, paired the look with smoky eye make-up and nude lips reminiscent of the 1990s beauty trend currently returning to fashion runways.

Her sister, model Kendall Jenner, wore a custom pale blue Chanel gown featuring delicate embroidery and a subtle fishtail silhouette.

Actor Jessica Alba, 44, wore a shimmering black strapless column gown by Tamara Ralph, featuring pluming ostrich feathers. Meanwhile, singer Rita Ora also embraced the feather trend, wearing a floral and sheer couture gown also from Tamara Ralph paired with an oversized feathered hat.

British model and actress Cara Delevingne, 33, wore a sheer Thom Browne top emblazoned with a stylised torso motif, accessorised with Hassanzadeh jewellery.

Reality television matriarch Kris Jenner, 70, channelled gothic glamour in a black Valentino couture gown originally designed in 1995.

Fashion favourite Colman Domingo – an Oscar-nominated actor, best-known for his role in Rustin and HBO series Euphoria – wore a grey and silver pinstripe Jacquemus suit, finished with a dramatic brooch and oversized pocket square.

Actor Jeff Goldblum attended alongside his wife Emilie Livingston in coordinated looks featuring fur accents from ERL Artisanal.

Supermodel Bella Hadid wore a simple cream two-piece ensemble by Prada with jewellery by Chopard. While singer Dua Lipa opted for a more dramatic look in a black Schiaparelli gown accented with dripping gold detailing, finishing the look with a chunky Bulgari choker.

Actor Nicole Kidman, 58, kept things elegant in a long-sleeved gold Chanel gown.

Model Kaia Gerber, daughter of supermodel Cindy Crawford, wore a ruched red velvet gown by Givenchy, designed by Sarah Burton.

Model and entrepreneur Hailey Bieber opted for a strapless leopard-print Giorgio Armani gown with a fishtail silhouette.

Meanwhile American singer and rapper Audrey Nuna stood out in a liquid-gold Maison Margiela gown with dramatic voluminous sleeves.
