The film industry’s night of nights is here, with the 95th annual Academy Awards taking place at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.

Florence Pugh was the talk of the carpet when she arrived in a show-stopping look from Valentino’s spring 2023 couture collection, featuring a puffy top and black shorts. “A bit romantic, a bit of punk, wearing some shorts, I’m doing it,” Pugh told E!
