The Oscars are the sartorial high point of awards season. Sure, we love to root for our favorite movies to take home a few golden statues, but mostly we can’t wait to see what the stars are wearing on the red carpet. That said, we don’t have to wait for Sunday night’s big show to see some of the most stylish celebrities serving up major looks; plenty of pre-Oscar parties and lunches are here to whet our appetite. We picked out some of the best looks from functions like Saturday’s Independent Spirit Awards and Thursday’s Vanity Fair x Lancôme Women In Hollywood cocktail party (among others) in the hopes that these chic ensembles are only a preview of the fantastic fashion moments to come.
