Milly Alcock’s hairstylist, Graham Nation, wrapped chains around the back of the House Of The Dragon actor’s half-up, half-down ’do (swipe the picture above to see it in all its metallic glory). Paired with chain-link earrings, the hair accessories also matched the pearl detail in her halter-neck black dress, proving that it really is the subtle details that make all the difference.

Of course, we can’t not mention Rihanna’s surprise appearance – and of course, we never had any doubt that she would look incredible. Describing her look as Princess-Leia-meets-Hollywood-meets-Wakanda, the singer’s subtle pink matchy-matchy eyes, lips and cheeks worked perfectly with the statement hair and custom Schiaparelli gown.

In stark contrast to her usual Wednesday Addams get-up – and inspired by Sophia Loren – Jenna Ortega paired a flick-out bob with an elongated wing, dewy skin and a neutral lip. Created by the actor’s go-to make-up artist, Vincent Oquendo, it was a real showstopper.

Forever the coolest, Letitia Wright wore her cropped buzz cut with a soft smoky eye and finished with a glossy lip – which was Fenty Beauty’s Gloss Bomb Heat in Hot Cherry, £20. To prep her skin, make-up artist Grace Pae used Augustinus Bader’s The Rich Cream, £225, a failsafe favourite.

An icon in her own right, it wasn’t just Jennifer Coolidge’s speech that was a talking point. Her make-up – done by Lilly Keys – was a full Victoria Beckham Beauty affair. VB’s Satin Kajal Liner in Ash, £26, was used along the lash line and in the outer corners, while a sparkly version – in the shade Gold Lamé (£26) – was used in the inner corners. 

The royal blue dress paired with monochromatic blue eyeliner really is the moment, and Viola Davis couldn’t look more breathtaking. Make-up artist Sergio López-Rivera says he wanted to keep things “breezy and easygoing but sophisticated” and we reckon he’s absolutely nailed that brief. 

Forever the very best muse, Selena Gomez wore a full face of Rare Beauty (naturally) – and make-up artist Hung Vanngo made a strong case for the brand’s new Positive Light Silky Touch Highlighter, £28. The way the light caught the shade Mesmerize on the red carpet is making us never want to use anything else ever again.
