Carey Mulligan, a luminary of classic Hollywood style and a three-time Academy Award nominee, delivered a masterclass in elegance at the 2024 Oscars. Donning a mesmerizing black mermaid dress with a unique scalloped hem over white tulle, Mulligan paid homage to a timeless Balenciaga design from 1951. This stunning choice underscored her status as a maestro of elegant style, effortlessly blending classic and contemporary elements.

Her outfit was meticulously accessorized with Fred Leighton's old mine cut diamond earrings and complemented by chic elbow-length black gloves, adding a sophisticated touch to her overall look. Accompanying Mulligan on this glamorous evening was her husband, musician Marcus Mumford, who presented a sharp contrast in an all-black suit, with a pair of sunglasses lending an air of modern cool to his ensemble.

At 38, Mulligan is nominated for Best Actress for her portrayal of Felicia Montealegre, the wife of famed composer Leonard Bernstein, in the critically acclaimed film "Maestro." Her nomination places her among a distinguished group of actresses, including Annette Bening, Lily Gladstone, Sandra Hüller, and Emma Stone, showcasing the depth of talent in this year's awards.

The choice of the Balenciaga gown was deeply rooted in the narrative of "Maestro," specifically aligning with a pivotal moment in 1951 when Felicia Montealegre married Leonard Bernstein. To honor this true story, Balenciaga's ateliers in Paris took on the formidable task of recreating an iconic gown from Cristóbal Balenciaga’s Winter 1951 Collection. With only sketches, photographs, and a fabric swatch as their guide, the team worked to embody the spirit of the original piece, housed at the Kyoto Costume Institute, while ensuring that the recreation resonated with modern sensibilities on Mulligan.

Creative director Demna's commitment to preserving the vintage charm of the gown, while tailoring it to Mulligan's contemporary elegance, was evident in every detail of the dress. This fusion of past and present not only highlighted Mulligan's impeccable taste but also celebrated the enduring legacy of Balenciaga's designs.
