Angela Bassett made a grand entrance at the 93rd Academy Awards in a majorly statement-making gown.

The actress, who is on-hand to present during the night, arrived in a custom red Alberta Ferretti off-the-shoulder gown with full, draped organza shoulders, a high slit and long train, paired with Christian Louboutin heels, Judith Leiber clutch and accessorized with a Chopard bracket and ring.

Bassett has wowed in a voluminous creation before, as her stylist Jennifer Austin reminded fans earlier in the day, sharing a throwback of her bright pink gown from the 2019 Oscars.
