Hollywood - Hollywood's biggest stars strutted their stuff on the Oscars red carpet Sunday, and a few trends emerged: old school glamour, metallic gowns, lots of pink, trousers on the women... and one stunning gown on a man.
Actor-singer Billy Porter wowed the crowd with a Christian Siriano black velvet tuxedo gown.
"When you come to the Oscars, you must dress up," the Tony and Grammy award-winner and star of the TV series Pose tweeted.
