On the eve of the Oscars, Hollywood’s elite gathered not for an early night’s rest, but for a night of lively conversation and celebration at the annual Chanel and Charles Finch dinner. This coveted invitation is even more elusive than a seat at the Academy Awards itself.
The Polo Lounge at The Beverly Hills Hotel, a venue steeped in Hollywood history, was abuzz with the industry’s brightest talents. Many attendees, including Kristen Stewart, Marion Cotillard, Nicole Kidman, and Camila Morrone, were adorned in Chanel from head to toe.
The red carpet was a flurry of activity as Kidman and Stewart shared a warm embrace and posed for photographers. “It’s been so long,” Kidman was heard saying. The patio was a hub of interaction, with Idris Elba deep in conversation with Kidman, and Tessa Thompson chatting with best actress nominee Andrea Riseborough.
The evening also saw a meeting of Spider-Mans, as Andrew Garfield approached Tobey Maguire, who was enjoying one of the Polo Lounge’s iconic martinis. They were later seen engaging with “The Whale” director Darren Aronofsky.
Inside, guests were treated to a surprise performance by “The White Lotus” actor Beatrice Grannò. Other attendees included Michael B. Jordan, Danielle Deadwyler, Hugh Grant, Brie Larson, Sigourney Weaver, Vicky Krieps, Minnie Driver, Patty Jenkins, Sarah Polley, Lily James, David O. Russell, Jerry Bruckheimer, Sofia Boutella, and Ted Sarandos.
This star-studded event, held annually on the eve of the Oscars, is a testament to the enduring allure of Hollywood glamour and the timeless elegance of Chanel. It serves as a reminder of the magic that can happen when fashion and film intersect.
