On the Oscars red carpet — this year a shade of muted brick-red — movie stars tend to want to look like movie stars. That means understated elegance, sharp tailoring and classic silhouettes. Some may take risks, but for the most part, here, at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles, there is a premium on straightforward glamour and beauty.

These stars and their stylists have had to come up with dozens of looks before tonight’s for weekend after weekend of award-season revelry — red carpets but also preshow events and after-parties — but now is not the time to show fatigue.

Here’s what the nominees, presenters and performers wore to make their biggest entrance of the year.
