Six decades later, the Oscars 2023 red carpet is going to undergo a drastic change that no one expected. As you well know, red is the traditional color of this space in which dozens of artists pose for different media. At the Oscars, it’s one of the most important moments: many take the opportunity to unveil new projects, while others are content to walk around showing off their art of posing.
In both cases, at the Oscars 2023, there will be news on the red carpeta carpet in which accumulate more Hollywood celebrities per square meter than anywhere else.
Why is the traditional red carpet disappearing at the Oscars in 2023?
The Dolby Theater in Los Angeles will have a carpet, yes, but it will not be red, but champagne. The Hollywood Academy rolled out a carpet on Wednesday March 8 which, for the first time in more than 60 years, will not be red.
jimmy kimmelpresenter of the 95th edition of Oscars 2023joked about it: “people wonder if there will be violence this year. We hope not, but I think the decision to make the carpet champagne shows how confident we are that no blood will be shed“. Obviously, that’s not the real reason why the red carpet will stop being red. In case you didn’t realize, Kimmel poked fun at the slap Will Smith gave Chris Rock in 2022.
In fact, this decision is aesthetic. The organizers asked the preparation team for the 2023 Oscars “a style that would go well for day and night“, has explained Bill Kramerdirector of the Academia. In this way the color Champagne will contrast with the red of the curtains and the white of the columns of the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles.
