In a prior interview with WWD, Waddington described her paintings in “Poor Things” as her dream task. “One of the great things about working with Yorgos [Lanthimos, director] is that he isn’t somebody who comes to you with a finished sense of what things should be. He very much encourages a rich, creative process for each of his collaborators,” she mentioned.

“Poor Things” received 4 Oscars in overall, together with Perfect Make-up and Hairstyling, Perfect Manufacturing Design and Perfect Actress for Emma Stone, who attended the rite in a blue Louis Vuitton get dressed.

Waddington’s award was once offered by way of actor John Cena, who confirmed up on level with an surprising glance. The actor wore just a pair of Birkenstock sandals and a massive envelope with the title of this day’s winner.

“Costumes… they are so important. Maybe the most important thing there is,” Cena mentioned, drawing laughter from the target market. 

Cena’s almost-naked glance was once a nod to a streaker who ran around the Oscars level in 1974, interrupting David Niven’s creation of Elizabeth Taylor. “Can you imagine if a nude man ran across the stage today?” requested Jimmy Kimmel, who hosted this day’s rite, earlier than bringing Cena to the level.
