As if the 2025 Oscars red carpet didn't provide enough excitement for one night, Vanity Fair's Oscars after-party gave stars a second opportunity to pull jaw-dropping vintage gowns. Hailey Bieber's archive Yves Saint Laurent dress showcased the model's penchant for pairing classic silhouettes with her modern aesthetic.
Arriving to the red carpet without husband Justin Bieber (or baby Jack Blues), Bieber was positively statuesque in an Yves Saint Laurent gown from 1987. The strapless black dress featured a fitted opaque bodice, cinched at the waist with a large black bow, and transformed into a sheer organza skirt at the thigh.
Bieber—who is styled by Dani Michelle—accessorized the sleek gown with Tiffany & Co. jewelry, including 4-carat diamond earrings. Hairstylist Bryce Scarlett used Laifen's Swift Special to create Bieber's loose, Old Hollywood waves. Her manicure was created by OPI global ambassador, Zola Ganzorigt, using OPI products—"One coat of Passion," "Funny Bunny for the french," and "Intelligel no wipe top coat," Ganzorigt shared on Instagram.
Bieber's classic dress featured a second black ribbon bow on the back, accentuating where the opaque bodice ended and the gown's delicate sheer skirt began.
The model last appeared at Vanity Fair's annual Oscars after-party in 2023. Just like in 2025, Bieber selected Saint Laurent for the prestigious occasion, but instead of an archive gown, Bieber wore a custom-made dress from the designer. The floor-length gown featured long sleeves, one of which extended into a fitted black glove, while the other cascaded to the ground in a dramatic train.
The 2025 Oscars red carpet ushered in a new era of Hollywood starlet, with Best Actress winner Mikey Madison wearing a blush pink Dior gown featuring a black bandeau.
Meanwhile, Nosferatu star Lily-Rose Depp made her 2025 Oscars red carpet debut in a lacy, naked Chanel Couture gown, which was inspired by the fashion house's Spring 1995 couture collection.
Kylie Jenner, a regular fixture at 2025 awards season alongside her boyfriend, Timothée Chalamet, wore a custom Miu Miu cut-out gown, which consisted of a beaded bra section and a sleek column skirt.
