Florence Pugh has recently immersed herself in promoting Dune: Part Two, captivating everyone’s attention with a series of sci-fi-inspired red-carpet ensembles.
Her prowess in selecting attention-grabbing gowns is undeniable, and her presence at the 2024 Oscars further confirms this fact.
Bringing her signature movie-star style to the 96th Annual Academy Awards night, the 28-year-old English actress captivated onlookers with her grand entrance onto the red carpet outside Los Angeles’ Dolby Theater on Sunday evening.

A Silver Gown Fit for Princess Irulan
Draped in a silver gown that echoed the armor of her character Princess Irulan from Dune: Part Two, she exuded confidence and elegance.
In my opinion, Pugh’s attire positions her as one of the best-dressed stars of the prestigious event, fittingly resembling a regal figure worthy of being crowned the Emperor’s daughter.
Her ensemble, a Del Core masterpiece from the fashion house’s Spring/Summer 2024 ready-to-wear collection, accentuated her poise and sophistication.

Detailed Craftsmanship of Pugh’s Oscars Ensemble
What immediately draws my attention is the sculptural, slightly sheer corset adorned with delicate, shiny beading. It evokes the image of water droplets on a leaf, adding a subtle yet captivating detail to her outfit.
Additionally, the hem of the plunging strappy bustier top featured a curvy peplum detail, seamlessly transitioning into a long, matching silky skirt embellished with sparkling silver rhinestones below her waist.

The skirt elegantly pooled at her feet before extending into a short train. This train covered most of her choice of footwear, a pair of matching silver Piferi Rosalia platform sandals that you can buy at Nordstrom.
These sandals, characterized by sturdy platforms and towering block heels, complemented her attire and accentuated her statuesque frame. Other celebrity fans of these shoes include Lily Allen, Camila Cabello, Ashley Park, and Hailee Steinfeld.
Elevating the Look With High-End Accessories
Styled by Rebecca Corbin Murray, I am enamored with how the Don’t Worry Darling star accentuated her ensemble. She made a bold choice by adorning herself with Bulgari jewelry, notably the stunning diamond Bulgari Serpenti Double wrap necklace.

Pugh also paired her statement choker with a Bulgari Roman Wonders diamond ring, Bulgari High Jewelry ring, and Bulgari stud earrings. Not to be overlooked, her signature cartilage piercings were adorned with various Jennifer Meyer stud earrings.
I admire the work of hairstylist Adir Abergel, who used Virtue products to craft her hairstyle. Aiming for a “modern-day bombshell” aesthetic with a carefree, glamorous vibe, he perfectly styled her blonde bob, achieving tousled waves elegantly parted to the side.
She confidently showcased her toned physique with her makeup, complementing her overall appearance with a glamorous makeup look featuring rouge lipstick.
Florence Pugh Supports Oppenheimer Oscar Nomination
Although Florence Pugh didn’t receive a personal nomination, she is an integral part of the Oppenheimer ensemble, a film that led the ceremony with 13 nominations.
These nominations include Best Picture, Best Director for Christopher Nolan, Best Actor for Cillian Murphy, Best Supporting Actor for Robert Downey Jr., and Best Supporting Actress for Emily Blunt.
In the film, Pugh portrays Jean Tatlock, the former girlfriend of physicist and “father of the atomic bomb” J. Robert Oppenheimer.
Throughout the 2024 awards season, Oppenheimer has been a dominant force, securing numerous accolades at prestigious events such as the Golden Globes, Critics Choice Awards, and SAG Awards.
Daring in Sheer Jean Paul Gaultier Dress at Vanity Fair Oscar Party
Oppenheimer shone brightly at the Oscars, securing seven awards. Florence Pugh, basking in the success, joined her Oppenheimer castmates at the Vanity Fair Oscars Party in Beverly Hills.
Transitioning from her glamorous silver gown, she stole the spotlight in a striking, see-through white Jean Paul Gaultier dress from the designer’s Spring/Summer 2024 couture collection, showcasing her toned abs.

I admire the Little Women actress’ fearlessness in making bold fashion statements, as evidenced by her decision to go braless beneath the sheer romantic gown, commanding attention with her confident style.
Crafted from translucent white fabric, the column dress featured a sophisticated midi-length hemline accentuated by a structured peplum detail at the waist and a draping train bustled to the back.

Simone Rocha’s feminine touch was evident in the wispy 3-D feathered adornments and a quasi-lotus-flower pattern embroidered across the chest and skirt, protecting Pugh’s modesty.
Continuing the Sheer Theme With Christian Louboutin
Continuing the see-through theme, she opted for bedazzled Christian Louboutin Follies Strass pumps, making a bold statement with hand-placed shimmering strass.

These pumps embody elegance with their classic stiletto shape and 100 mm heel, while the mesh vamp nods to Christian Louboutin’s transparency aesthetic.
To complement her ensemble, Pugh accessorized with a bold, chunky Bulgari Le Magnifiche necklace and matching Bulgari Le Magnifiche earrings and maintained her earlier accessories and beauty glam.
