The 96th Academy Awards, held at the Dolby Theater in LA, was undoubtedly an event to remember. From John Cena’s unexpected walk across the stage to Al Pacino’s unconventional approach to announcing the Best Film winner, there were moments that left everyone talking.

The red carpet was also abuzz with eye-catching outfits that stole the spotlight. One couple that particularly caught everyone’s attention was Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos. Their stunning appearance caused quite a stir on social media.

It’s not uncommon for celebrities to make headlines with their fashion choices at awards ceremonies. However, in the age of social media, the discussion and debate around outfits have reached new heights. With live photos from the red carpet circulating worldwide within seconds, it’s no surprise that the Oscars and its attendees face heavy scrutiny.

Kelly Ripa found herself in the midst of this online fashion frenzy. She shared a picture of her dazzling black, see-through gown on Instagram along with the caption, “Mom and dad storming the red carpet.” Her legion of fans showered her with appreciation and compliments for her stunning look.

Some of the comments included: “You both look amazing. BUT that dress is stunning ❤❤❤,” “Beautiful gown. Beautiful couple,” and “Kelly, your hair, the dress… you look gorgeous.”

Of course, not everyone was a fan of Ripa’s choice. Some questioned her decision to wear the dress, with comments like, “I love you Kelly but not this dress” and “Unlike Mark not to have a perfectly tailored suit or tux on. His clothes are usually impeccable.”
