She came to slay

Julianne Hough may not be in the running for a golden trophy tonight, but her show-stopping ensemble is certainly Oscar-worthy.

In 2024, the Dancing with the Stars alum surprised fans by walking the Oscars red carpet in a gorgeous jumpsuit, featuring a metallic top and large flare pants. For this year's red carpet, however, Hough switched things up with an elegant, multi-colored Christian Dior gown from the Spring 2025 collection. The dress features an asymmetrical neckline and layers of tulle that create a stunning effect.

The actress and dancer also channeled Marilyn Monroe by styling her blonde bob with defined waves and curls, bringing the look together with a bold red lip and silver earrings, courtesy of Martin Katz jewelry.

Just moments before her red carpet appearance, Hough shared behind-the-scenes footage of her transformation on her Instagram Story. She tagged her team and wrote, "Oscars glam loading."

Beauty enthusiasts will also be glad to know that the star offered a rare glimpse of the makeup products she used to achieve her look, including a variety of blushes and lipsticks from RCMA Makeup and Dior Beauty. *Takes notes.*

Hough is co-hosting ABC's The Oscars Red Carpet Show alongside The Bachelor host Jesse Palmer, who also turned heads in his classic black tux. Still, as impressed as I am by their stylish outfits, something tells me they're not the only ones who will be bringing their fashion A-game tonight.
