  • Gucci presented the event, so many stars walked the red carpet in looks from the designer.

On Saturday, celebrities gathered at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art for the LACMA Art+Film Gala.

The 2023 gala honored the artist Judy Baca and filmmaker David Fincher, and Leonardo DiCaprio and Eva Chow served as co-chairs, according to the gala's website.

The gala was star-studded, with celebrities like Kim Kardashian and Heidi Klum attending. The event also gave actors who aren't attending awards shows amid the SAG-AFTRA strike a chance to show off their red-carpet style.

Gucci presented the event, so many stars attended in outfits from the designer. Here's a look at the best and most daring looks of the night, from sheer gowns to monochromatic suits.

Jennifer Lopez's bronze dress had a sheer skirt.

Designed by Gucci, Lopez's dress had a bra-style top with spaghetti straps and cutouts underneath it.

The ultra-high-waisted skirt was made of tan, sheer lace and embroidered with sparkly flowers. A scalloped train gave it a dose of elegance, while the thigh-high slit on one side made it even more daring.

A statement red necklace from Gucci and light-brown Andrea Wazen heels completed the look.

Lupita Nyong'o also wore a see-through look, selecting a red gown with a dropped waist.

The dress, which Gucci designed, was entirely sheer, forming a V-neckline with darker fabric that provided a bit of coverage on Nyong'o's chest.

A subtle pattern covered the gown from head to toe, and lines of thicker fabric on the bodice gave the flowy look some structure.

A curved pattern created a plunging neckline on Quinta Brunson's form-fitting dress.

Raisa Vanessa designed Brunson's long-sleeve dress, which was orange on one side and black on the other and had slightly pointed shoulder pads.

A stripe of white fabric split the two sides of the form-fitting dress, framing the low neckline, which was covered by sheer fabric.

Colman Domingo opted for a sleek, all-white suit.

Domingo's monochromatic Versace ensemble consisted of a white jacket with slightly shiny lapels, slim-fitted white pants, a white top, and white shoes.

A gold button and chain added a pop of color to the look.

Kardashian turned to Balenciaga, one of her favorite designers, for her dress for the LACMA Art+Film Gala.

The hot-pink gown had a straight, strapless neckline and a mermaid-style skirt.

But the standout feature of the dress was its dramatic train, which flowed out like ribbons from its low back.

Heidi Klum's fuzzy dress had a plunging neckline and daring side cutouts.

Designed by Lever Couture, Klum's dress was made of fuzzy white fabric with a subtle sparkle that draped along the front and back of the model's body.

A plunging neckline, low back, and side cutouts made of sheer fabric kept the dress together.

Greta Lee's slinky dress had black, lace detailing.

Lee's slip-style Gucci dress had a dropped waist, which gave way to a semi-sheer, mint-green skirt.

Black, lace fabric covered the pointed neckline, and a stripe of the same fabric separated the bodice and the skirt.

The sides and back of Julia Garner's dress were open.

Garner's Gucci dress had a high neckline, and the silver bodice looked like chain mail. But the sides of the neckline were open aside from two thin strips of black fabric, which connected the two sides on the open back.

The column-style black skirt had slits that went all the way up to the waist, revealing a miniskirt beneath the gown.

Andrew Garfield wore a monochromatic look.

Kravitz's Gucci ensemble consisted of a black vest, wide-legged pants, and pointed-toe white shoes.

He accessorized the outfit with sunglasses and a silver necklace.

Salma Hayek's form-fitting dress shined on the red carpet thanks to its metallic material.

Hayek's Gucci dress hugged her figure, with the shiny, pink material flowing into an ombré skirt that was covered in dotted embellishments.

The rounded neckline also featured thin straps that formed a necklace, giving it an architectural look.

Daisy Edgar-Jones selected a velvet and lace dress for the event.

Also in Gucci, Edgar-Jones' black dress had a low neckline that formed a knot at her waist before flowing into a column skirt with a daring slit that showed off her strappy shoes.

An underlayer of black lace provided Edgar-Jones with coverage on the bodice.
