Carey Mulligan put a lot of thought into the gown she wore to Sunday's Academy Awards, where she was nominated in the Best Actress category.
The actress wowed in a black and white Balenciaga dress accessorised with opera gloves and Boucheron jewels for her red carpet moment at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.
And speaking to Vogue, she revealed how the carefully chosen dress was a tribute to her character in her nominated movie Maestro.
'I think it's my favourite dress I've ever worn,' Carey gushed, explaining that the dress is a precise recreation of a 1951 gown from the Balenciaga archives.
The date is significant as 1951 also happens to be the year that Felicia Montealegre and Leonard Bernstein got married, making the dress a fitting tribute to the woman Carey plays in the movie.

Carey said it was her stylist Andrew Mukamal who pitched the idea to Balenciaga, marking the first time the fashion house has remade a look from its archives for the red carpet.
Carey's Oscar gown was the pinncale of her vintage awards season wardrobe, having dazzled in recreations from Schiaparelli and Dior at the Golden Globes and BAFTAs respectively.
And she was delighted with the vintage cut of her Balenciaga gown, describing it as 'the most incredible shape and so classic, but feels really modern. It just feels amazing to wear, and not constrictive; I'm not going to be sitting there holding my breath for three hours.'
The star was happy her glam squad could accompany her to the red carpet, with the group arriving in a party bus, so Carey could remain upright and not crease the gown, with tunes blasting.
Her arrival was in stark contrast to the 2021 ceremony, the last Oscars red carpet she walked, with Covid restrictions meaning she was only permitted to bring her husband Marcus Mumford.
'[He] was in charge of everything: he had to make sure the dress was laid out nicely; he was texting my hair and make-up team. He was incredibly stressed,' she told Vogue.
Carey lost out on the Best Actress Oscar on Sunday night to Emma Stone, who scooped the win for her role in Poor Things.
Meanwhile, Oppenheimer won a whopping seven Oscars while rival Barbie only won one.
The big winners on the night were Christopher Nolan, Cillian Murphy, Emma Stone, Da'Vine Joy Randolph and Robert Downey Jr.

The historical epic directed by Christopher Nolan swept the major categories with wins for Best Actor Cillian Murphy, Best Supporting Actor Robert Downey Jr. and Nolan - with the film also winning Best Picture.
In contrast, Barbie, who memorably won against Oppenheimer in the 'Barbenheimer' box office showdown over the summer, walked away with just one award for Best Original Song for What Was I Made For? by Billie Eilish and Finneas McConnell.
