Vanity Fair Oscars Party 2026: Celebrity Red Carpet Fashion

The 2026 Oscars may be over, but movie's biggest night rages on.

After One Battle After Another was awarded Best Picture at the Conan O'Brien-hosted ceremony on March 15, the star-studded crowd inside the Dolby Theatre dispersed to hit up the many parties happening across Los Angeles. (See all the celebrities at the Oscars red carpet here and a complete list of winners here.)

In addition to the famed Vanity Fair after-party, winners, nominees, presenters and even some celebs who weren't at the Academy Awards descended upon late-night bashes thrown by Elton John, Madonna and Jay-Z and Beyoncé to celebrate the occasion.

Of course, there was also the iconic Governor's Ball, the Academy's official after-party where newly-minted Oscar winners traditionally get their statuettes engraved. As Michael B. Jordan, Jessie Buckley and Amy Madigan waited on their trophies, other guests enjoyed culinary creations by celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck and his son Byron Puck, as well as drinks from Don Julio Tequila.

So, what is it really like to feed Hollywood's biggest names? “It’s hard when you’re doing ice cream or sorbets or gelatos for 1,500 people," Byron recently told Variety, adding that he and his father were making their ice cream from "scratch" this year.

But it was a night to remember even before the awards were handed out. After all, Ryan Coogler's Sinners came into the show with a record-breaking 16 nominations—including a nod for costume designer Ruth E. Carter, now the most-nominated Black woman in Oscar history.

With his Best Actor nomination for Marty Supreme, Timothée Chalamet entered the record books as the youngest male actor to earn three acting nominations since Hollywood legend Marlon Brando. Similarly, Emma Stone—who was up for Best Actress and Best Picture as a co-producer for Bugonia—earned the title as the youngest woman to rack up seven nominations.
