Emma Stone's Oscars Gown & Bugonia Role

0:00This is Cory with Durham News Today, powered by the Daily News Now. Emma Stone stole the show at the 2026 Oscars on March 15, wearing a stunning silver-beated floor-length gown by Louis Vuitton. The 37-year-old actress walked the red carpet with husband Dave McCary and is up for Best Actress for her role in Bogonia, plus Best Picture, as a producer. This marks her seventh nomination overall, making her the youngest actress to hit that milestone. The gown took 600 hours of craftsmanship and featured a low back, paired with Stone's Sheikah Bob Haircut. Bogonia reunites her with director Yorgos Nathamos after their hits, poor things and kinds of kindness, where she won her second Best Actress Oscar. Last year, fans and stars buzzed over her glamorous arrival, with many noting her beaming smiles alongside McCary, whom she married in 2020. The couple welcomed daughter Louise Jean the next year, and Stone has shared how her family life influences her bold career choices.

She prepped her young daughter for the dramatic change, explaining it was temporary and fun, to ease any fears. During filming, Stone felt a mix of nerves and excitement, as the one-take scene unfolded, with multiple cameras ready. She entered a calm, meditative state to stay perfectly still, later calling the transformation one of her favorites.
