Stars put the red in red carpet Sunday when the bold color made a splash on many gowns.

Best supporting actress nominee Kirsten Dunst wore a ruffled vintage Christian Lacroix gown, as she walked in with husband Jesse Plemons, also nominated for his role in “Power of the Dog.”

Ariana DeBose’s Valentino scarlett pantsuit with plunging neckline and cape brought back Hollywood glamor. She’s nominated for best actress in a supporting role for playing Anita in “West Side Story.”

Marlee Matlin looked resplendent in a red gown topped off with blonde highlights. Tracee Ellis Ross showed off lots of skin in her bright red Carolina Herrera gown with red heels.

Simu Liu arrives at the Oscars on Sunday, March 27, 2022, at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.

“Shang Chi” star Simu Liu jumped on the bandwagon, joining his female counterparts in red. He wore a sharply cut crimson tuxedo with matching pants.

One star who didn’t quite dress up was Timothée Chalamet, who appeared to have left his dress shirt at home as the “Dune” star arrived at the Dolby Theater in just a shiny blazer.

It wasn’t a regal outfit for Kristen Stewart, nominated for playing Princess Diana in “Spencer,” who wore a pair of Chanel shorts and ankle socks.

Another eye-catching look was worn by Jada Pinkett Smith, who accompanied husband Will Smith, nominated for best actor for his role as Venus and Serena Williams’ dad in “King Richard.” The “Red Table Talk” host donned an emerald Jean Paul Gaultier gown with a voluminous ruffled train.

“Dune” star Zendaya wore Valentino, in a cropped white shirt, with a silver shimmery skirt.
