Michelle Yeoh’s Balenciaga Turn at Oscars Night

Michelle Yeoh was at the Oscars 2025 red carpet in a custom Balenciaga gown. The strapless blue silk dress, draped with a cape detail at the waist, caught the light with every step—less about flash, more about form. Styled with a simple necklace and her hair pulled back, she let the cut do the work. Fresh off “Star Trek: Section 31,” where she wore the brand for the film’s January premiere, Yeoh’s back-to-back Balenciaga moves signal she’s locked in with Demna’s vision.

Balenciaga’s Fall 2025 couture show, teased in Paris late last year, leaned into deconstructed tailoring—think sliced coats and warped proportions—which this blue gown sidesteps for a cleaner cut. Yeoh’s been an ambassador since 2023, and her picks keep the house’s edge in focus.

The night had Yeoh presenting Best Actress, a full-circle moment after her 2023 win for “Everything Everywhere All at Once.”
