Here are photos from the 2019 LACMA Art + Film Gala, held Saturday night in LA, obviously. This year’s gala honored Alfonso Cuaron and artist Betye Saar. As always, there was a good turn-out. The gala has become a regular part of the Oscar season, if we’re being honest – tons of A-list celebrities come out to be seen and to wear great gowns. Gucci is always one of the big sponsors of the event, so most people just wear Gucci. Here’s Brie Larson in Gucci. Like, I really like Brie and I think she’s super-talented. But is she a fashion girl? Whenever she wears a strong “look,” I feel like it falls flat. This gown just isn’t right for her.
Naomi Campbell in Atelier Versace. Her body is still so f–king crazy. But she’s tweaking her face and that bugs.
Billie Eilish is, as the kids say, a mood.
Zoe Saldana in Gucci. Lord, Gucci gave her the worst dress. Yikes.
Camila Morrone, wearing a bridal sack dress. I actually think this is very pretty and she’s quite beautiful, but yeah, it’s very “Marry me!”
Jared Leto looking gross AF. He reps Gucci though, that’s why he’s there. He was probably contractually obligated to be there.
Salma Hayek and Francois-Henri Pinault. She wore Gucci. I like this? The dress is fine. The hair is rather big, but it fits the simplicity of the dress.
Kiki Layne in Gucci. Architectural hair with a sequined dress? Real question: is the dress “plain” enough for this hair style? Or is the look too “busy”?

Brie’s dress would be a lot better without that twee heart on the bodice.
Quite the high heel Jared Leto is wearing.
Selma looks good.
Kiki’s dress is gorgeous but that hair calls for a simpler dress.
Without the bow and the heart it would be quite gorgeous.
Salma’s fashion sense is always stuck in about 1997 but I kind of admire how she won’t move on, lol.
I agree with that: Take off the bow and the heart, hike up the bodice, it’d be MUCH better.
Gotta ask: Is dark lip liner a “thing” again?? I’m noticing it more and more. It wasn’t a good look the first time around.
Selma’s hair looks like what my mom wore in the 60s/early 70s when she was going to a fancy party lol
Naomi is a beautiful woman, but lose that center part. Sorry, but to me, it makes her look like she’s a drag queen.
Brie’s dress looks like something I would have designed as a kid.
Billie’s is the kind I would have designed! She’s so cool.
I feel like a scaled-down version of Brie’s dress would be very cute on a 3-year-old, like at a holiday party. (With sleeves and a higher neck, obvs.) Less keen on it for grownups.
It’s very Disney princess, isn’t it?
Naomi nailed it. The wedding like dress really needs some busy support. And yeah, that first dress looks FUG.
Naomi Queen.
I kind of love Billie. I know she partially chooses the styling she does because she’s uncomfortable about how people treat her having a bigger bust and that sort of thing. But she looks SO comfortable and honestly, she doesn’t look any more ridiculous than anyone else there.
Someone did Brie dirty. She’s SO pretty, but that dress doesn’t look like it even fits properly.
I love Brie AND her style. But this dress, with that hair? Also the make up is off but I can’t point out what is it exactly. Anyway it’s a no from me.
The rest aren’t looking great either.
Second that Erinn. As a girl who went from size 0 in 6th grade to a size 8 & B-cups by 8th grade, I totally understand wearing baggy clothes to avoid being oversexualized. It wasn’t until after high school that I felt comfortable showing off my body. Too many creepy dudes leering in public made me so uncomfortable, as did my leering stepfather.
I dunno…there’s something about that dress that looks really good on Zoe. I think she’s rocking it.
I kind of love it too! It’s a look for sure, but she seems to pull it off. She looks like she’s having fun & that’s important to me in fashion.
I like it too. And I’m not mad about the fact that she looks like an old timey madam.
this is the best Salma Hayek has looked in years. her style is usually so WEIRD but this is great. even with the hair.
She looks every bit the presentable wife of a billionaire. And the billionaire seems to know it too.
I for one love Kiki Layne’s outfit. It’s a lot but she can work it.
I love Kiki’s entire look. Stunning.
She looks like an actual queen. Gorgeous.
It’s the best one here.
Yep. Stunning.
Came to say the same thing. The hair is perfect with the dress. Tone either down, and you upset the balance. She’s a queen.
Agreed, and her makeup is perfect too.
Really really tired of seeing that Camilla Morone nobody ‘girlfriend’ of Leo pop up everywhere. She’s 100 times more annoying than any of the previous ones participating in the DiCaprio Girlfriend Experience. Sticks like cling foil. Can we get to her expiration date already? She and her escort mother are the definitions of desperate gold-diggers who don’t have the talent to make it without being some fool’s arm candy. Either Leo is stuck and doesn’t know how to get rid of her, or he’s a real idiot. She breaks all of his rules.
She’s trying to make a career out of being his girlfriend. Good luck to her but the only one who genuinely benefited big time from dating Leo would Gisele Bundchen. I can’t think of anyone else.
All those gowns are really awful. Cliché Hollywood sexy. Too much sequins, wrong fit or just old fashioned, nothing unique. Just lacking in design. Some of those women need to up the underwear game. Too much sagging and bagging. Naomi looks good , but agree her face looks a bit tweaked-starting to get cat face. Liked Billie Eilish’s look the best. Just cool and chill, not screaming desperate sexy like some of those tight sequined gowns.
@L4
You have to be kidding, right?! Not one of these women are “sagging and bagging” anywhere. They are all gorgeous, with figures to die for. And I don’t even know what else to say cause I’m still shook that you actually described anyone in this thread as saggy.
I’m with you @evev! Sagging and bagging?! Wtf?
Kiki Layne looks amazing and I think the hair and dress go really well together.
Naomi Campbell looks gorgeous, as always. But I’m with you Kaiser, I wish she would leave her face alone. She doesn’t need any of that junk, she’s one of the most beautiful women in the world.
Salma Hayek is gorg but has the weirdest red carpet style. This dress is better than what she normally wears but still not great.
I’d love a version of Brie’s dress for my 3 year old.
Zoe is actually pulling that dress off, but it’s not a good dress.
Why the hell is Camilla Morrone there?
Zoe Saldanas dress looks like the top half is one dress and the skirt is a totally different dress. This reminded me of an entire award season filled with fug dresses like this, was it just last year or the year before?
Billie Eilish has a wonderful, delicate face and a great figure, and I love her style.
