Ariana DeBose, Kristen, Jessica Chastain, Zendaya at star-studded red carpet

The 94th Academy Awards' red carpet began at the Dolby Theatre and nominees were seen dazzling at the red carpet event before the show. Among those nominated, 'Variety' highlighted Ariana DeBose, Kristen Stewart and Jessica Chastain as some of the year's best dressed. Even as the Oscars celebrate cinema, the ceremony is no stranger to bold political statements. From stars donning the colours of the Ukrainian flag to vocal condemnation of Florida's 'Don't Say Gay' bill, the year has been rife with protests both on and off the carpet.  (All photos/AFP)
