Teyana Taylor wears a Chanel feathered gown on the Oscars 2026 red carpet

Teyana Taylor saved her best look for last.

The multihyphenate, 35, hit the Oscars 2026 red carpet wearing a Chanel pearl- and crystal-embroidered gown with a sheer panel that showed off her impressive abs.

The black-and-white spaghetti-strap design was adorned with feathers from the hips down, ending in a dramatic train (which kept its shape even without her adorable daughter in tow to fix it).

Taylor wore her short hair in soft waves with artful Chanel cat-eye liner and glossy lips.

She completed the look with Tiffany & Co.’s showstopping Céleste Shooting Star necklace featuring more than 990 diamonds weighing nearly 89 total carats, along with platinum and diamond earrings and two diamond rings, also by Tiffany.

Tonight’s ceremony is Taylor’s first-ever Oscars appearance — and the “One Battle After Another” star is nominated for best supporting actress for her portrayal of Perfidia in Paul Thomas Anderson’s politically charged thriller, which earned 13 nominations.

She’ll have her biggest fans in the room; Taylor told Stephen Colbert last month that both her mom and grandmother wanted to be her plus-one, so she bought tickets for everyone. “I wasn’t trying to be in that kind of smoke,” she said on “The Late Show.”

It’s been a breakout awards season for the Harlem-born actress and singer, who in January won her first Golden Globe in a custom Schiaparelli gown complete with a crystal-encrusted thong.

“The crack is covered in diamonds,” she told E! on the carpet.

She’s kept up the momentum since, wearing a custom plum Burberry trench-coat gown at the BAFTAs in February and a Thom Browne trompe-l’oeil “naked” dress at the Actor Awards earlier this month — where her daughter Rue Rose Shumpert, 5, stole the show by fixing her train on the carpet.

Taylor, who choreographed Beyoncé’s “Ring the Alarm” music video at just 15, is also developing her directorial debut, “Get Lite,” at Paramount and earned a Grammy nomination for best R&B album for her fourth studio record, “Escape Room.”
