This year’s Oscar nomination for Best Actress marks the eighth for Blanchett. She previously won Best Actress in 2014 for “Blue Jasmine” and Best Supporting Actress in 2005 for “The Aviator.”
On Wednesday, Blanchett appeared at Time’s Women of the Year Gala wearing an Alexandre Vauthier look that she previously wore for a public appearance in 2022. Blanchett tends to make a point of taking a sustainable approach to fashion by re-wearing certain looks.
The annual Oscars celebrates film, cinematography and the artists who bring characters to life. This year, Jimmy Kimmel hosts the show. Performances include Rihanna and Lady Gaga, and presenters include Dwayne Johnson, Emily Blunt, Janelle Monáe and more. For the 95th annual ceremony, the red carpet was swapped for a champagne color due to an aesthetic choice to enhance the photography during the arrivals. The champagne carpet is the first to change from red since the 33rd Oscars in 1961.
