Celebrities took inspiration from the golden Oscars statues for their glamourous 2021 Academy Awards ensembles.

The <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/2021-oscars-red-carpet-statement-style" target="_blank" rel="noopener">glitz and glamor</a> of Hollywood make its grand return with the <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/every-look-2021-oscars-red-carpet-academy-awards" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2021 Academy Awards</a>&mdash;the first fully in-person award show since the COVID-19 pandemic&mdash;and the fashion is in full force. Many of your favorite celebrities hit the red carpet in some of this year's best looks, taking inspiration from the ceremony itself.
