Allison Williams was elegantly outfitted to announce the nominees for the 2023 Academy Awards (also known as the Oscars), alongside actor Riz Ahmed.

During the occasion, broadcast on Tuesday from the Academy’s Samuel Goldwyn Theater, Williams stood onstage with Ahmed in a lightly draped Huishan Zhang dress. The “Megan” actress‘ dark red style featured a cape-like silhouette with slits for sleeves, accented by a delicate bow. Finishing Williams’ outfit were swinging fringed diamond Cartier Panthere drop earrings, as well as a matching Cartier cuff and a caviar-textured bangle.

Ahmed was dapperly dressed for the occasion as well, wearing a tan collared jacket and trousers over a black collared shirt.

When it came to shoes, Williams finished her outfit with a set of close-toed pumps from Christian Louboutin. The Decollete style featured smooth black satin uppers with closed counters and pointed toes, complete with thin stiletto heels totaling at least 4 inches in height. The set created a sharp base to Williams’ outfit, while remaining elegant for the formal occasion.
