Last night’s Oscar red carpet was pretty impressive, but we were pleasantly surprised when we saw all the showstopping ensembles that came after the telecast ended. At the annual Vanity Fair Oscar party, a who’s who of stars, including many who passed on attending the actual award ceremony, stepped out in their Sunday night best to have some fun. From leaving behind long gowns for slinky dresses and showing off some skin, to switching out stilettos for platform dress shoes, these stars enjoyed the night’s festivities in velvet, fishnet material, sequins and more. That includes your favorites: Kerry Washington, Tracee Ellis Ross, Halle Berry, Viola Davis and many, many others. These are the looks that had us saying that the after-party red carpet might have been better than the Academy Award red carpet.
