The 2015 Oscars Red Carpet Was A Full-On Display Of Ultimate Glamour

As far as awards shows go, the Oscars red carpet is by far the most glamorous. Sure, the Grammys are a load of fun and the Golden Globes are delightfully eclectic, but its the Academy Awards that inspire celebrities to pull out all the sartorial stops. Once in a while someone goes off the rails with a bird dress, but generally? It's just a whole lot of gorgeousness — and this year was no exception.

From Lupita Nyong'o to Meryl Streep, click through for every single look that went down the red carpet at the 2015 Oscars.

I don’t care if her dresses are kinda off-beat — Linklater always slays on the carpet.

David Burtka & Neil Patrick Harris

The gray was definitely a risk for NPH, but that’s why we love him.

OK, Gwyn. I see you.
