When it comes to Hollywood’s biggest nights, fashion choices can range from safe to extreme. But there are stars like Rita Moreno who know how to turn heads while maintaining their class and style. At 92 years old, Moreno continues to captivate audiences, and her appearance at the 2024 Oscars was no exception.

Walking the red carpet in a stunning all-black 3D Badgley Mischka gown with beautiful cascading ruffles, Moreno promised to “knock your socks off” – and she delivered. Accompanied by opera gloves and a gold timepiece, her choice of accessories perfectly complemented the elegant evening gown.
However, it was Moreno’s new hair that stole the show. Typically known for her gray pixie cut, the EGOT winner surprised everyone by debuting a sleek jet black look. While it appeared to be a permanent change, Moreno clarified on the red carpet that it was only temporary and served as a tribute to the late actress Chita Rivera, someone she deeply admired and loved.
When asked about her new hairstyle, Moreno playfully responded, “I’m just having fun wearing this wig.” And indeed, her sense of joy and adventure shone through as she confidently showcased her bold transformation.
