The biggest celebrities in entertainment hit the red carpet at the 14th Annual Governors Awards in Los Angeles Tuesday night, where stars like Angela Bassett and Mel Brooks received honorary Oscars. 

The star-studded soirée — attended by Margot Robbie, Natalie Portman, Emma Stone, Leonardo DiCaprio and more — saw some of the boldest looks from this year's awards season yet. The Messenger takes a look at some of the head-turning ensembles worn by attendees.

The Iron Claw star opted for a red turtleneck under his black two-piece Fendi suit in lieu of a standard button down — a sophisticated twist on a classic look.

While many A-listers went with a classic black tux, Batiste flipped the script in a crisp, all-white getup. The singer posed with Barrino, who wore a custom strapless Ronny Kobo gown featuring an eye-catching white ruffle overlay at the hip.

The Governors Awards red carpet saw tons of statement-making details on otherwise classic silhouettes, and Mulligan's off-the-shoulder black-and-white gown is a prime example. The actress — who posed with Maestro co-star Bradley Cooper — kept her makeup natural and opted for minimal jewelry, keeping the focus on her stunning dress.
