That year, both were in the running for Best Picture — a rare creative moment that saw the longtime partners celebrate each other’s work even as they competed in the same category. Their respective films, Marriage Story and Little Women, earned six nominations each, including Best Picture, Best Actress, and Best Supporting Actress (won by Laura Dern).
Although the top honor ultimately went to South Korea’s Kwak Sin-ae and Bong Joon-ho for Parasite, Gerwig and Baumbach’s red-carpet presence captured the artistic partnership and refined style that have made them one of Hollywood’s most admired creative duos.
Timeless Dior Glamour: Greta Gerwig Channels Old Hollywood in Custom Green Couture

The Little Women director, nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay, went for old-Hollywood glamour in a custom green strapless Dior Haute Couture gown.
The traditional ball gown features a pleated bodice with a sweetheart neckline, updated with fringing along the floor-sweeping hem. It also has a dainty belt to accentuate her waist.

Styling the Look: Bulgari Jewels, Soft Glam Beauty, and a Sleek Side-Part
Stylist Cristina Ehrlich amped up the elegance factor a few notches with a pair of diamond earrings and a platinum necklace featuring seven emerald beads, 14 pear diamonds, 32 round diamonds, and pavé-set diamonds by Bulgari.
Hairstylist John D. swept back Greta’s blonde hair with a side parting to allow her to showcase her stunning jewelry. Makeup artist Jenn Streicher beautified the actress-director with dark green eyeshadow to complement her gown. She also applied mascara, pink lipstick, and matching blush.

Noah also opted for a Dior look, wearing a Dior Men black tuxedo with a crisp white shirt underneath and a black bow tie.

After-Party Elegance: Greta Gerwig Transforms in Black Lace Dior at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party
Right after the ceremony, Greta attended the Vanity Fair Oscar party in another Dior creation. Noah joined her at the after-party, along with some of her friends, who wore coordinating yellow-green outfits.

The 36-year-old filmmaker traded her ball gown for a black mini dress with lace overlay and embellished shoulder straps. She added a black leather belt with a gold CD logo to the look, highlighting her figure.

The American actress/filmmaker accessorized with gold hoop earrings, gold rings, and a bangle. And for her feet, her stylist opted for a simple look with Jimmy Choo black pumps.
