There’s a lot to celebrate in London right now. In addition to designers hosting their latest runway shows for fashion editors and tastemakers, the 76th British Academy Film Awards is having its own event for those in Hollywood. On Feb. 19, stars arrived to the Southbank Centre for the glitzy soirée that celebrates actors, directors, producers, technicians, and more. As everyone made their way down the red carpet, you’ll see that the fashion looks at the 2023 BAFTAs were glamorous and surprisingly colorful.

Viola Davis, who was nominated for Best Leading Actress for The Woman King, stunned in a custom glittery purple dress from Stella McCartney. Meanwhile, Florence Pugh brought the drama in an orange pleated tulle top and skirt set from Nina Ricci. It was designed by the label’s Creative Director Harris Reed, who just showed his own namesake label at London Fashion Week and he had Pugh open his show. Elsewhere, actors like Sophie Turner and Ana de Armas added their own personal style and elegance to the red carpet via looks from Louis Vuitton. (Zoom in on Turner’s look specifically — the medley of embellishments were so unexpected and cool.)

Scroll ahead to see every celebrity arrival and what they wore. Everyone brought their fashion A-game to the BAFTAs, so the looks will not disappoint.
