Best Red Carpet Looks from the 2025 Academy Museum Gala

The 2025 Academy Museum Gala in Los Angeles wasn’t just another star-studded evening; it was Hollywood’s answer to the “Met Gala of the West.” The annual fundraiser for the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures brings together the brightest names in film, fashion and culture to walk a red carpet that previewed the trends set to dominate 2026. This year’s gala, held on October 18, raised essential funds for museum exhibitions, educational initiatives and public programming across L.A., while the co-chairs (including Jon M. Chu, Viola Davis, Robert Downey Jr. and Jennifer Hudson) ensured that elegance and substance went hand in hand. As cameras flashed and gowns flowed, the night offered more than fashion, it offered an insider look into how film and glamour converge on the red carpet.
