Honouring the most spectacular performances on the silver screen since 1929, the Oscars are one of the most star-studded and prestigious events on the Hollywood calendar.
This year, the world's most glamorous stars will swarm the the Dolby Theatre in the Hollywood & Highland Center on Sunday, March 27, 2022 for the 94th Academy Awards.
The red carpet was turned green by a host of Irish talent, as Caitríona Balfe, Jessie Buckley and more dressed to the nines and strutted their stuff.
Caitríona culminated her stunning press tour for Belfast with an angelic white gown – very appropriate for a former Victoria's Secret angel.
Styled once again by Karla Welch, the Monaghan native wore a custom Louis Vuitton gown featuring a column gown, a flowing ruffle detail around the hips and shimmering spaghetti straps.
She accessorised with a stunning diamond necklace in the style of a bowtie from Van Cleef & Arpels, and wore her hair cropped to the shoulders for a fresh and modern look.
Jessie Buckley went ethereal with her look too, but gave it her typical edge. Styled by Rose Forde, Buckley wore a strikingly understated gown by Erdem in a delicate shade of shell pink, which drew inspiration from the screen sirens of the 20s and 30s, according to British Vogue.
The flowing gown featured a V-neckline, princess seams down the front and a dramatic train. Although it is classic and feminine, it also drew inspiration from grunge icons of the 90s, particularly the vintage dress worn by Martha Plimpton at the 1989 Academy Awards.
Belfast born director Kenneth Branagh and actor Ciarán Hinds both went for navy suits, with Branagh choosing a three-piece look, while Hinds went understated in a classic tux.
Jamie Dornan experimented with his outfit, choosing a longline double breasted black blazer, worn over a crisp white shirt, and wide-legged trousers.

Meanwhile, Belfast star Jude Hill arguably stole the show in his classic black tuxedo, worn with a white shirt, a perfect outfit for his first Oscars red carpet.
