The Oscar Awards, the most important film awards in the world, have experienced a amazing change this year 2023 in celebration of his 95th edition. A multitude of ‘celebrities’ have passed over its carpet for almost a decade to collect the statuettes most famous in the world of cinema, the Oscars. In this edition, the awards given this year by the hollywood academy to the best of the film industry have not gone unnoticed once again. These awards They have been the great protagonists this past sunday march 12 worldwide, but this time not for a “slap” nor for the awards given, but for the end of its mythical red carpet.

For the first time in 65 years, the famous red carpet, protagonist of the parade of the most acclaimed stars in the audiovisual world, has changed its chromatic hue from red to champagne for a very special reason. A cinema with a different “tone” has paraded through a champagne-colored carpet 150 meters long and 10 meters wide. “People wonder if there will be violence this year, let’s hope not, but I think the decision of that the carpet is champagne-colored shows how confident we are that no blood will be spilled“said the presenter of the gala with a sense of humor Jimmy Kimmel.

Was in the year 1966 when the general public first saw the red carpet, and from then until this year, it had become a signature icon of the Awards. The reason why the Academy has decided to break the traditional style canons and bet on a new carpet color has been for purely stylistic reasons. “We asked our decorating team for a look that was both day and night. The champagne tone of the carpet contrasts with the dark red of the curtains and the white of the columns of the theater where the iconic statuettes go” reveals the director of the Academy, Bill Kramer. But in addition to this, his new tone has one more explanation after having tried other possible colors, they explain. According to statements of lovecreative consultant of the Academy, to the Associated Press agency, “this sienna color has been chosen because evokes the sunset before the golden hour”, thus coinciding with the time of the celebration of the Gala, starting at 5:00 p.m. (Pacific time).

In addition to the color change, the event was starred by two more stylistic changes. One of them is the striking plastic with which the carpet has been coveredand another the change in the “dress code” imposed by the Academy for ‘celebrities’. “This year, the carpet will be covered, partly to protect the stars from the weather, but also to help turn arrivals into an evening event. For Love, there has always been a disconnect between the elegant black tie dress code and the fact that it is mid-afternoon when people arrive to be photographed in daylight. With a covered rug, they could change that,” he told the Associated Press.

Some ‘celebrities’ like Jamie Lee Curtis They have even joked about the new color of the rug, stating that it would match the color tone of the curtains in their house.

Under all these novelties it has been claimed play with a combination of tones, both in the space and in the attendees, which has not gone unnoticed among lovers, or not, of the world of cinema, marking some “Oscars with a different tone”, full of great moments
