Taylor Swift Is the Belle of the Ball in Dior and a Curly Lob at the 2026 Academy Museum Gala

Tonight’s 2026 Academy Museum Gala, a fundraiser to support the museum’s work to preserve and celebrate cinema, tapped into star power. Whether it was the evening’s special honorees, including Charlize Theron and Colman Domingo, or actors simply out for some glamorous fun, the red carpet was filled with stellar sightings. Among them? Taylor Swift, who is scheduled to perform at the gala later in the evening.

Before heading to the main stage, Swift walked the walk in a custom Dior gown by Jonathan Anderson with Chopard jewelry. The star opted for classic Hollywood glitz, choosing an ice blue strapless dress featuring delicate pleats and a lace-up detail at the front. She accessorized with a pair of platinum earrings set with 32.40 carats of diamonds, a gold ring set with 5.78 carats of diamonds and a platinum and diamond bracelet, all from Chopard’s fine jewelry collection. A lightly curled lob and light pink lip completed the look.
