Badass babe Zoë Kravitz rocked an Oscar look that perfectly inhabits the space where Old Hollywood glamour meets punk. The actress, activist, and uh, turtle caretaker worked the red carpet in a sleek, black beaded number with teeny tiny spaghetti straps. The backless garment had side cutouts that perfectly draped on Zoë’s lithe figure, and featured dramatic, angular detailing on one side.

The star went blonde back in October, and her platinum hair was perfectly side-swept in a braids-curls-undercut combo, which brought to mind Jean Harlow meets rebel-girl vibes. A pop of bright orangey-red lipstick was a nice contrast to the Big Little Lies actress’ all-black ensemble, and strong brows and freckles rounded out the edgy-but-approachable vibe.

She is just so dang pretty.

Zoë went necklace and bracelet-free and instead opted for big dangly diamond earrings and a few rings. Her permanent accessories — a collection of tiny tattoos — were out and proud!

Zoë’s look incorporates a lot of elements, yet somehow manages to seem minimal….

Zoë attended the Vanity Fair Oscars party with her studly fuscia-haired bae Karl Glusman. His black suit and tie echoed the fabric in his lady’s satiny gown. They’re such a cool and cute couple that we’re sure their look will inspire at least a couple of prom looks!

It’s like a really, really badass prom.

The shindig went down in Beverly Hills after the awards show, where celebs reacted to the bizarre Best Picture snafu. It was certainly an evening to remember, and we won’t forget Zoë’s fabulous look!
