Best-dressed stars from the 2025 Academy Museum Gala |
The Academy Museum Gala returned to Los Angeles for its fifth annual edition, and there is a reason why it’s called the ‘West Coast Met Gala’! The fashion icons and A-listers turned up at Saturday night’s gala, channeling runway glamour and timeless elegance.“I can’t see anything,” Kim Kardashian, clad in a Maison Margiela gown and headgear, told the shutterbugs, as they asked her to pose for the pictures. Anything for fashion?

From Kim Kardashian’s masked look to Selena Gomez bringing old Hollywood glamour, here are some of the best-dressed stars from the 2025 Academy Museum Gala.

The ‘Wednesday’ star Jenna Ortega stole the show walking in a Grace Ling ensemble. She picked a sculptural breastplate with futuristic design from the SS26 – FUTURE RELICS collection. The breastplate resembling a leaf was a fusion of sculptural craftsmanship and biomorphic designs. The statement piece is paired with a soft skirt. Bold eyes, undefined brows, side-parted low pony with side-worn bangs, and nude maroon-lined lips, she surely seized the moment.

Talk about seizing the moment, and Charli XCX knows exactly how! For the 2025 Academy Museum Gala, Charli XCX channeled high-drama glamour in a Saint Laurent gown from the Winter 25 collection by Anthony Vaccarello. The all-black drama and depth went well with her rock-pop persona. She also brought back wavy locks, and girls, here’s your cue.

Drama has another name, Kim Kardashian! What does one do when the worst pimple appears out of nowhere on the day of red carpet appearance? Slap a pimple patch? Well, that’s exactly why you are not on the red carpet. Patches are for boring, and Kim certainly does not do boring. She wore a Maison Margiela corset gown, with a full face-covering mask in the same hue. No face doesn’t mean no jewels. She perhaps cannot see those diamonds, but the world can, so why not? She wore a tiered silver choker necklace with green stones for the extra bling.
Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco

Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco made their first appearance on the red carpet as a married couple. And the style they went for was old Hollywood glamour. She wore a beautiful Armani Privé black velvet strapless gown featuring crystals along the neckline. She added a matching evening jacket with it. Is a red carpet complete without diamonds? No, they aren’t! Selena wore dangling chandelier diamond earrings to go with the look, and completed with side-swept bun and wine lips. Her partner, Blanco, complemented her wearing a black suit.

Who needs boring when you can be extraordinary? Ella Fanning walked the red carpet in a Balenciaga ensemble. The powder pink high-low oversized top came with a train. The orange-feathered voluminous maxi skirt paired with it was all things drama. She went for a clean, slick side-parted bun and winged eyes. The Cartier jewels were spot on, and Fanning surely turned heads with her unique look.
