Article (news)

<p>The 2025 <strong>Academy Museum Gala </strong>at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles was a celebration of fashion and film. For its fifth year, the event drew an impressive lineup of stars dressed in a mix of archival treasures and contemporary couture, making the blue carpet one of the most talked-about moments of the night.</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1760948811360Greta Lee.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/><span class="fr-inner">Greta Lee at the Academy Museum Gala in Dior | Photo Courtesy of Dior</span></span></span></div><p><strong>Tessa Thompson</strong> arrived in a structured yellow gown with floral embellishment from Balenciaga, striking a balance between bold colour and sculptural form. <strong>Greta Lee</strong> offered a softer counterpoint in a lace Dior gown with a low neckline that balanced elegance and simplicity. <strong>Jenna Ortega</strong> continued her streak of standout fashion moments in a Grace Ling “Leaf Petal Couture” dress from the Spring 2026 collection, a sculptural piece that felt both artistic and wearable.</p><div><br/></div><p>Archive fashion also made a statement.<strong> Hilary Duff </strong>wore a pleated silk chiffon gown pulled from the Alberta Ferretti archives, proving that vintage-forward dressing remains very much relevant. Meanwhile, <strong>Olivia Rodrigo</strong> channelled old-school couture in archival Giorgio Armani Privé (SS 2005), a nod to film-industry heritage and fashion history alike.</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1760949577113Olivia Rodrigo.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/><span class="fr-inner">Olivia Rodrigo in Giorgio Armani Prive S/S 2005 for the Academy Museum Gala | Photo from Just Jared</span></span></span></div><p>On the edgier side of the spectrum, <strong>Charli XCX</strong> wore a dramatic leather and lace dress by Saint Laurent under the direction of Anthony Vaccarello. And no mention of the night’s looks would be complete without <strong>Kim Kardashian</strong>, who arrived in a beige gown by Maison Margiela paired with a full face mask and a statement choker. </p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:910px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1760949501693kimkardashian_1760892668_3746961740501421270_18428658.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/><span class="fr-inner">Kim Kardashian in Maison Margiela for the Academy Museum Gala | Photo from @kimkardashian on Instagram</span></span></span></div><p><strong>Zoë Kravitz</strong> stayed true to her aesthetic in a backless Saint Laurent gown that captured a sense of elegance. For a blend of modern romance and colour-play,<strong> Elle Fanning</strong> chose a pink-and-red dress by Balenciaga styled with Cartier jewellery, showing that layering colour can still feel elevated.</p><div><br/></div><p>Whether it was bold face-coverings, archival couture or runway-fresh gowns, the blue carpet at the 2025 gala proved that fashion remains deeply entwined with Hollywood’s storytelling machine.</p><div><br/></div><p>See more of the looks on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DQBmjLdExlH/?img_index=1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@metromagph</a> on Instagram</p><div><br/></div><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-0" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/DQBmjLdExlH/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=675&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A10942143.5%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="857" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-0" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script>
