While Raye delivered the classic Vivienne Westwood corset dress, these three ladies took things in fresh, bold, and undeniably glamorous directions for the 2025 Vanity Fair Oscar Party.
Serving sculptural elegance with an avant-garde edge
I can already hear the debates over Cynthia Erivo’s ivory illusion tulle draped corseted Vivienne Westwood Couture dress, but count me firmly in the love it camp. We got the Elphaba tribute at the main event, so I was hoping for something completely un-Wicked for the after-party, and this satisfies that itch. The drama is there, but in a softer, more poetic way, with the black silk ribbon and cascading Broken Pearl detail falling from the shoulder adding just the right amount of edge. Marli New York jewelry and Christian Louboutin pumps tied it all together.

A signature silhouette with a daring twist
Embellished strapless corset gowns are quickly becoming Anna Sawai’s thing, and I’m not complaining. Hot on the heels of her dazzling SAG Awards look, this plunging neckline brought a sultry elegance that felt both powerful and refined. The structured bodice played beautifully against the fluidity of the fabric, and that statement Cartier necklace with the emerald stone? The perfect finishing touch.
Old Hollywood glamour with a modern sensibility
Jodie Turner-Smith knows how to command a red carpet, and this stunning ivory corseted Vivienne Westwood Couture gown, draped so artfully across her body, was a testament to that. Every detail felt purposeful, from the silver Christian Louboutin Pigalle Follies pumps to the appropriately titled Pasquale Bruni Goddess Garden necklace. It’s the kind of effortless elegance that only she can deliver.
Styled by Wayman Bannerman and Micah McDonald.
Vivienne Westwood may be synonymous with corsetry, but these three proved that the brand’s signature aesthetic can take on wildly different personalities—with equally show-stopping results.
