These Oscars After-Party Gowns Are So Fabulous They Rival the Main Event
At the Oscars red carpet last night we witnessed many iconic film—and fashion—moments that we will be referencing for years, if not decades. Jennifer Lopez wore an insanely intricate Tom Ford dress with mirrored mosaic details, Olivia Colman was the queen of the red carpet in her regal Prada gown and Lady Gaga wore one of the most expensive diamond necklaces in the world. The gowns at the ceremony were certainly beautiful, however, it's at the after-parties where you'll find the more risk-taking outfits.
Lopez changed into a Zuhair Murad Couture dress with a fan detail across the bodice and an open slit on the skirt, while Kendall Jenner wore one of the most daring leg slits we've ever seen on a red carpet. Newlyweds Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth attended the Vanity Fair party, with Miley wearing a black sequin plunging gown by Saint Laurent. Lupita Nyong'o missed the red carpet this year but wore an exquisite white feathered Oscar de la Renta gown to the Vanity Fair party. Keep scrolling to see the best 2019 Oscars after-party outfits.

Erin got her start as aBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
