The day before, the fourth annual Academy Museum Gala took place in Los Angeles. The glamorous event is dedicated to the beginning of the film industry award season, so it is not surprising that all the brightest and most popular celebrities flew in for the evening.
Celebrities walked around in their new spectacular outfits. So, Kim Kardashian (in Thierry Mugler), Kendall and Kylie Jenner (in Schiaparelli and Mugler, respectively), Rosie Huntington-Whiteley (in Saint Laurent), Nicole Kidman (in Balenciaga), Selena Gomez, Uma Thurman (in Fendi), Amy Adams posed on the red carpet, Eva Longoria (for Georges Hobeika), Gal Gadot (for Loewe), Marion Cotillard, Kaia Gerber (for Givenchy), Olivia Wilde (for Erdem), Cara Delevingne, Pamela Anderson (for The Row), Sophia Richie and Elliot Grange, John Travolta with daughter Ella Blue, Ariana Grande (for vintage Balmain). 
The event honored several people for their special achievements. West Side Story star Rita Moreno received the Icon Award for impacting world culture.
Director Quentin Tarantino was presented with the Luminary Award for his contribution to cinema, and actor Paul Mescal was honored with the Visionary Award for disrupting “the dominant narratives around cinema.”
