Chanel 17th Annual Pre-Oscar Awards Dinner

Chanel and producer Charles Finch host a star-packed pre-Oscar dinner at the Polo Lounge, mixing Hollywood buzz with a pitch for supporting filmmakers. On Saturday night, guests crowd the patio at the Beverly Hills Hotel and mingle over drinks. Jessie Buckley says the smaller red carpet feels intimate ahead of the Oscars on Sunday. Co-director Maggie Kang hypes the big “Golden” performance tied to “KPop Demon Hunters.” The night also doubles as a reminder of Chanel’s long link to movies. Kristen Stewart points to the brand’s backing of her work and other independent projects.
