Oscars best-dressed

The 90th Academy Awards was bolder than ever, with focus on not only promoting the best of the movie industry, but also standing up for social justice and equality.

In an industry which is sometimes labeled as shallow, the Hollywood celebs wowed us all with their denunciation of sexual harassment and misconduct in Hollywood and beyond.

The hilarious Jimmy Kimmel presented once again and spoke about the #TimesUp and #MeToo movements, as did Salma Hayek, Ashley Judd and Annabella Sciorra during their special Oscars segment.

And since the presentations were all about progress, celebs channeled futuristic trends like metallics and menswear to show the changing tides of fashion and the bright future we have to look forward to.
