Here's a look at some of the best celebrity outfits from Sunday's ceremony.
Amanda Seyfried and her daughter drew a "red carpet" with chalk so the actress could show off her sparkling outfit.
She wore a Miu Miu suit comprised of "black cady smoking pants" and a tulle top covered in crystals and a sparkling bow, as the designer wrote on Instagram. Seyfried also wore pointed pumps and Fred Leighton jewels.
On Instagram, the actor's stylist, Elizabeth Stewart, said Seyfried's ensemble was inspired by Greta Garbo, Liza Minnelli, and Charlie Chaplin. Alique Studio captured Seyfried standing on her makeshift red carpet.
Regina King dazzled in a blue Atelier Versace gown and standout hairstyle.
Her sparkling dress had a thigh-high slit, countless blue sequins, and silk sleeves that ruffled at her shoulders. The latter fabric was also draped across her gown's bodice in a crisscross pattern, and down its back to create a small train.
King was styled and photographed by Wayman + Micah, and her updo hairstyle was created by Larry Sims.
Anya Taylor-Joy stood out in a semi-sheer tulle gown with matching gloves.
Her sleeveless dress was Dior Haute Couture. It had a pleated, floor-length skirt and a crisscross design across its bodice, which both created a semi-sheer effect. Taylor-Joy also wore sheer, elbow-length gloves that matched her dress, and long purple earrings from Bulgari.
Law Roach styled Taylor-Joy for the event, and photographer Pip captured images of her look.
Zendaya chose a neon Valentino Haute Couture look for the virtual event.
