Crocs on the red carpet? Now we’ve really seen it all

Oscars ceremony was unlike any other, with many of the normal red carpet rules re-written. Instead of the usual black tie mandate, the official dress code this year encouraged the celebrity attendees to aim ‘for a fusion of Inspirational and Aspirational… formal is totally cool if you want to go there, but casual is really not. ”The message was clear: leave your sweatpants at home and your house slippers at the door.

How then to bring the ‘aspirational’ and ‘inspirational’ when you’ve been wearing elasticated waistbands and fluffy footwear for a year?

Solution: Crocs, but spray painted gold. The Academy Awards’ musical director Questlove served up perfect post-lockdown glamour in loose tailoring and golden Crocs.
