Sunday saw Hollywood's glitziest event take place, with everyone who's anyone taking to the red carpet at the Oscars.
Stars including Ariana Grande, Selena Gomez, Mikey Maddison and Zoe Saldana took to the red carpet, wowing with their choices of dresses, but it was 50-year-old Penelope Cruz's gown that stole the show.
Dressed in floaty white silk chiffon, Penelope's beautiful Chanel gown was inspired by a Spring/Summer 1992 design from the brand, with a modern take.

Penelope was the presenter of choice to award Walter Salles his International Feature Film award for I'm Still Here.

Chanel is an obvious choice for Penelope, who has been an ambassador for the French brand since 2018. She wore the classic brand for her first-ever Oscars appearance in 2000, opting for a midnight blue gown.
For her 2022 attendance at the film awards, Penelope wore the brand again, opting for a dramatic black dress with similar button-down detailing to her 2025 dress.
