Gabrielle Union and her husband Dwyane Wade were a vision of elegance as they attended the 2024 Academy Awards.
Gabrielle, 51, was a sight to behold in an edgy silver dress with a truly stunning jeweled choker necklace.
The Bring It On actress sported a chic bun and towering platform heels as she posed up a storm on the red carpet.
Her elegant metallic dress appeared to be a two-piece, with a flared top worn over a smart, floor-length skirt.
She glowed with a perfect layer of eye shadow, blush and long full lashes.

Her husband, 42, also looked dapper in a crisp suit and tie look.
The former NBA player donned a crisp white jacket with a black lapel and buttons along with a pair of black slacks.
The 96th Academy Awards honor the best films of 2023 – with the glittering ceremony held at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood.
The most anticipated films of the past year – Barbie and Oppenheimer – lead the nominations.
Oppenheimer has 13 nods, including best picture and best actor for Cillian Murphy – who is favorite to win the lead category after winning a BAFTA, a Golden Globe and SAG Award for his role as physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer.
The impressive total — which also includes Best Supporting Actor and Actress for Robert Downey Jr. and Emily Blunt, as well as best director for Christopher Nolan – is just one nomination short of the all-time record set by Titanic in 1998.
Last year’s other blockbuster – Barbie – was nominated for eight awards, but also fell victim to notable snubs from the Academy.
Its star Margot Robbie was not nominated for Best Actress, while Greta Gerwig was not nominated for Best Director.

Another surprise saw America Ferrera nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Barbie, with pundits saying her character’s impassioned speech about feminism sealed the deal.
Barbie’s other nominations include Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor for Ryan Gosling and two nods for Best Song – including Gosling’s famous ‘I’m Just Ken’.
The second most nominated film was Poor Things, a graphic art house film starring Emma Stone that has impressed critics but so far failed to set off a fire at the box office.
Stone plays a sex-crazed young woman, and her performance wows critics. She previously won Best Actress in 2017 for her performance in La La Land.
Union rocked the red carpet in platform heels
For Best Actor, Bradley Cooper and Cillian Murphy are set to win the award. Colman Domingo, Paul Giamatti and Jeffrey Wright also received nominations.
Leonardo DiCaprio was not recognized for his acting on Killers Of The Flower Moon.
Yorgos Lanthimos’ Poor Things took home 11 Oscar nominations, and Killers of the Flower Moon landed 10.
Annette Bening, Lily Gladstone, Sandra Huller, Carey Mulligan and Emma Stone have been nominated for Best Actress in a Leading Role.

Gladstone is the first Indian to be nominated for Best Actress for her performance in Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon – and is the favorite in the category thanks to her wins at the Golden Globes and SAG Awards.
What Was I Made For by Billie Eilish and I’m Just Ken by Ryan Gosling from Barbie received their expected nominations for Best Original Song.
Sterling K. Brown, Robert De Niro, Robert Downey Jr., Ryan Gosling and Mark Ruffalo received nominations for Best Actor in a Supporting Role.
Emily Blunt, Danielle Brooks, America Ferrera, Jodie Foster and Da’Vine Joy Randolph received nominations for Best Actress in a Supporting Role.
Joy has already won the Golden Globe, Bafta, Critics Choice and Screen Actors Guild awards and is favorite for an Oscar for her performance as the left-behind chef in The Holdovers.
Wade looked dapper in a sharp suit and tie look
Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon and Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer were nominated for best director, snubbing Greta Gerwig’s Barbie.
Gerwig was nominated for Best Director in 2018 for her solo directorial debut, Lady Bird. Only three women have won Oscars for best director – Kathryn Bigelow, Chloe Zhao and Jane Campion.
Although Nolan is considered the big budget auteur of his era, he has never won an Oscar, and none of his films have won Best Picture.
Bradley Cooper was not nominated for directing Maestro, but he was recognized for his acting in that biopic.
American Fiction, Anatomy of a Fall, Barbie, The Holdovers, Killers of the Flower Moon, Maestro, Oppenheimer, Past Lives, Poor Things and The Zone of Interest received Best Picture nominations.
The 96th Academy Awards will be held on March 10 at 7:00 PM ET/4:00 PM PT live on ABC, hosted for the fourth time by Jimmy Kimmel.
