Sarah Burton took inspiration for Elle Fanning’s 2025 Oscars dress from Hubert de Givenchy’s first collection.

“I absolutely love this dress,” Fanning told E News on the red carpet. “It’s actually very special. Sarah Burton, who was the designer for Alexander McQueen for a while, is now the designer for Givenchy, but she hasn’t shown a collection yet. So I get to wear...the first Sarah Burton design as designer of Givenchy.”

It could be a toy swan wrapped around your neck (think Björk), a loin cloth and mohawk (hello, Cher), or even a stylist pulling a runway look from the archives. Or, and that is a big or, you could wear a creation by a newly-appointed creative director who’s yet to make their runway debut at fashion week,
