It was a predictably eventful evening in LA this past Sunday at the 96th Academy Awards, hosted at the Dolby Theater.
Among the stand-out moments were John Cena’s naked walk across the stage to present the award for Best Costume Design and Al Pacino’s decision to skip over the nominations for Best Film altogether, instead going straight to announcing the winner.
There were also plenty of talking points to be gleaned from the red carpet, not least relating to the plethora of eye-catching outfits on show. As per reports, actress Kelly Ripa and husband Mark Consuelos were among those to steal the show, with the former causing a particular stir on social media.
Celebrities dominating headlines for their choice of garment for any particular awards ceremony is nothing new.
Yet in the age of social media, where live photos from the red carpet can be shared around the world at the click of a button, it’s become arguably more popular than ever to discuss and debate outfits in real time.
As such, it’s only natural to expect that an event of the magnitude of the Oscars, and those fortunate enough to be in attendance, is always going to be heavily scrutinized.
Among those who found their fashion choices dissected online this year was Kelly Ripa, who uploaded her outfit – a dazzling black, see-through gown – to Instagram along with the caption: “Mom and dad storming the red carpet.”
There, it was met with a wave of appreciation from her legion of fans.
“You both look amazing. BUT that dress is stunning ❤❤❤,” one person wrote.
“Beautiful gown. Beautiful couple,” another added.
“Kelly, your hair, the dress… you look gorgeous,” a third said.
Of course, it wasn’t all compliments. There were those who questioned Ripa’s decision to don the dress.
“I love you Kelly but not this dress,” one detractor wrote.
Another added: “Unlike Mark not to have a perfectly tailored suit or tux on. His clothes are usually impeccable.“
A third wrote: “Kelly wear some bike shorts. You are lowering your self in the see through dress. You’re better than that!“
“She doesn’t even look like the same person anymore ?♀️” a fourth opined.
I don’t know about you, but I think Kelly and Mark looked fantastic at the Oscars! Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

What Catches Your Attention Right Away?
Optical illusions have long fascinated us because they draw our attention and pose intriguing questions that are occasionally left unanswered.
These arresting images not only grab our attention, but they also lead us on a deeply reflective journey that highlights the subtle differences in our perception.
Our exclusive collection of optical illusions will make you doubt who you think you are. They might share some enlightening details about your background and personality.
What catches your eye first?
This image is potent because it conveys your perspective of both the outside world and who you are. If you are the first person to notice a duck, you are probably a gregarious person who enjoys socializing. You are able to think fast, act fast, and perform effectively under duress.
If you are someone who believes that if you detect a rabbit at first, you should go for it slowly. This suggests that you would like carefully weigh your options before settling on a thought and are reluctant to commit to one.
When you want anything done right, you follow the right procedure. In addition, you are generally a more introverted person than other people. I guess I might characterize myself as an introvert. You place greater value on having a select few close friends than you do on having a vast social network.
Which is it? The Profiled Faces or the Vase?
This optical illusion was created by Danish psychologist and philosopher Edgar John Rubin to aid individuals in understanding their benefits and drawbacks. Having two faces increases your ability to notice even the smallest details and provides you with a natural understanding of a wide range of vocations.
If your attention was initially drawn to the vase, you are the type of person who tends to overlook the little things and is naturally drawn to the bigger picture.
An older man or a young woman?
One of two images may immediately register in your mind. You are a thorough examiner if you see the old man with the big nose peering down. You may find it difficult to apply your critical thinking skill because you have a tendency to overanalyze. This is primarily due to your exceptional emotional awareness and understanding.
The moment you spot the woman turning away, you get impetuous and want to get things done swiftly. You have a unique zest for life since your optimism complements your fearless demeanor.
Which woman—older or younger—do you believe she is?
Your perception of this image may change depending on your age. If you see the girl turning away, you are most likely still young. However, it appears from the older woman’s appearance that you have a great deal of life experience. A study that looked into this phenomenon was published in the academic journal Scholarly Reports.
