As the evening progressed, the patio swelled with A-listers. Jon Hamm and his wife, Anna Osceola, were spotted at the bar deep in conversation with Edgar Ramírez, one of the stars of Emilia Pérez, another Best Picture nominee. Later, the Mad Men actor caught up with Vanity Fair’s editor-in-chief, Radhika Jones. Across the bar, Saint Laurent ambassador Zoë Kravitz, clad in a stunning orange gown with a flowing train and a ruffled lace neckline, lounged on a plush sofa while chatting with actress Sasha Calle. Meanwhile, Adrien Brody—widely considered a top contender for his second Oscar, thanks to his role as a Holocaust survivor in The Brutalist—stood huddled in conversation near a heat lamp with his girlfriend, Marchesa designer Georgina Chapman, and Vaccarello. After their discussion wrapped, Vaccarello exchanged a warm double kiss on the cheek with Olivia Wilde. Moments later, Ruth Negga, a 2017 Best Actress nominee for Loving, joined them for a lively exchange.
Later in the evening, Negga—striking in a Saint Laurent lamé dévoré velvet cropped top and matching ruffled skirt—reflected on her earliest cinematic fashion inspiration. “It was Michelle Pfeiffer in Grease 2,” she said. “She does this song called Cool Rider, and she’s in a biker jacket with pink lining, all-black everything, heels, sunglasses—she looked like the ultimate ’50s beat poet on a motorcycle. I just loved it. I think of that outfit so often, and her performance on the stepladder? I know all the words. Should I do it now? I just need a stepladder!”
As more guests arrived—including Kaitlyn Dever, Jodie Turner-Smith, and Dominic Sessa—the party continued in full swing, with guests mingling over wagyu taquitos, prawn croquettes, and endless flutes of Champagne. Eventually, the crowd made their way into a cozy dining space for a decadent meal. Just before taking his seat, Ramírez shared his personal cinematic style inspirations. “The best styling ever? Michael Douglas in Fatal Attraction and Richard Gere in American Gigolo—both are amazing,” said the Emmy-nominated actor, dressed in a cashmere Yves jacket and loose-fitting cashmere trousers. “It was effortless sophistication. I was a kid when those movies came out, but as an adult, when I think of characters with incredible style, I think of them.”
Meanwhile, Dever—soon to appear in The Last of Us Season 2—reminisced about the actress who first inspired her to pursue acting. “For me, it was Toni Collette in The Sixth Sense,” she said. “She was the woman I wanted to be. I was obsessed with her in every way—her acting, her natural beauty, even her nails in that film. She’s a huge inspiration to me.”
The evening’s festivities embodied a seamless blend of glamour and inspiration—something Eydelshteyn perfectly captured. “Being at this Oscar party is incredible,” the 23-year-old Russian actor said. “I’ve seen so much beauty during awards season, and to me, beauty is the most inspiring thing. This whole experience has motivated me to learn from others and work even harder.”
