Sterling K. Brown and his wife,

Ryan Michelle Bathe (both in Dior), hit the Governors

Ball. 2 Oppenheimer husband-and-wife best picture winners Emma Thomas, in Rodarte, and a

Dior Men-clad Christopher Nolan (who also scored for best director) shared a moment backstage during the show. 3 Rita Moreno,

92, brought exuberant high style to the carpet in ruffled Badgley Mischka. “In that gorgeous black taffeta — I was obsessed,” says Lyons of Moreno’s look. 4 The best visual effects winner for Godzilla Minus One, director

Takashi Yamazaki, held a figurine of the famed monster. 5 From left: An all-star lineup of Sally Field and Jessica Lange (both in Dolce & Gabbana), Jennifer Lawrence and Charlize Theron (both in Dior Haute Couture) and

Michelle Yeoh in Balenciaga, gathered onstage to present the best actress award.

6 Killers of the Flower Moon nominee Lily Gladstone’s custom velvet Gucci gown featured designs by porcupine quillwork artist Joe Big Mountain. “I really like the fact that the team of Gucci is sort of saying, ‘You know what? We’re happy to share this moment,’ ” says Meagher. Adds Lyons, “I think what most people don’t realize is that this is often not allowed. Normally when a designer dresses somebody, they want the person to be wearing head to toe that house.” Gladstone wore Bulgari jewels, including a high-jewelry ring (inset) with a 9.10-carat sapphire.

7 John Cena, in a toga made from a curtain, with Holly Waddington, Oscar-winning costume designer for Poor Things. 8 Kirsten Dunst and Jesse Plemons, both wearing Gucci and Fred Leighton gems. 9 Emily

Blunt in a Schiaparelli gown — it set social media ablaze with discussions about the elevated shoulder straps — with husband John Krasinski in Brioni. Both wore jewels by Tiffany & Co. “I liked the raised straps. I love the way it fit,” says Meagher. But he wasn’t a fan of the outline on the dress’ front: “I one hundred percent thought it was a pair of tightywhities.” Lyons disagrees: “I think it was a reference of an outline of a corset.”
