Which Designer Is Each 2026 Oscar Nominee Wearing? Dress Predictions Ahead of the Ceremony

Hollywood’s favorite actresses are sure to deliver sartorial drama at the 2026 Oscars.

From Emma Stone to Teyana Taylor, the nominees have been serving chic looks throughout this year’s award season. Ahead of film’s biggest night on Sunday, March 15, Us Weekly is predicting which designer each nominee will wear on the red carpet.

Stone, 37, who has been a brand ambassador for Louis Vuitton since 2017, will likely rock a couture look from the French fashion house at the awards show. Stone who is nominated for Best Actress for her part in Bugonia, wears Louis Vuitton on nearly every red carpet she attends.

Elle Fanning, for her part, is a bit of a toss-up between Elie Saab, Gucci and Ralph Lauren. The Sentimental Value star, who is nominated for Best Supporting Actress, wore both Gucci and Ralph Lauren twice at recent red carpet events. For the Oscars, Us is predicting to see the actress, 27, shine in custom Gucci, just like what she wore at the 2026 Golden Globes.

Jessie Buckley, who is nominated for Best Actress, recently wore Chanel, Balenciaga and Dior while getting photographed, but seeing as she’s rocked Bottega Veneta twice as of late, Us is foreseeing her wearing the Italian brand.

Taylor is another star who ventures out with multiple designers — and looks fierce in everything she wears. Since she’s been stealing the show in Ashi Studios dresses as of late, we’re putting our money on the Best Supporting Actress nominee, 35, wearing the logo at the Oscars.

Two of Renate Reinsve’s last three red carpet moments have been custom-made by Louis Vuitton, so Us thinks she’ll be slaying the designer’s tag alongside Stone while celebrating her nomination for Best Actress.

Kate Hudson, nominated for Best Actress for Song Sung Blue, has been the queen of Valentino as of late so we’re predicting another red carpet moment in a custom look by the famed designer.

Rose Byrne, who is also up for Best Actress, has been wearing a number of Chanel looks while leading up to the Oscars, making Us think she’ll tap the designer again.

Best Director nominee Chloe Zhao is predicted to wear Gabriela Hearst at the Oscars after rocking the designer at multiple events during the awards season.

Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas, up for Best Supporting Actress, Amy Madigan and Wunmi Mosaku are three stars who are a tad more unpredictable in the style department.

Us is taking a guess that Lilleaas, 36, will sizzle in an Armani look, while Madigan, nominated for Best Supporting actress might be in Christian Dior, seeing as she wore the designer at the SAG-AFTRA’s 32nd Actor Awards. There’s a strong chance that Mosaku, 39, who is up for Best Supporting Actress, will turn heads in either Louis Vuitton or Christian Siriano.
