Awards season is officially in full swing. Just one week after the Golden Globes, Hollywood's celebrations carried on Sunday with the Critics' Choice Awards. And the ceremony that rewards art from the big and small screen and gets TV and movie stars united on the blue carpet inspired the stars to dress to impress once again.

Claire Foy, the recipient of the #SeeHer Award and Best Supporting Actress nominee for her role as Janet Armstrong, wife of Neil Armstrong, in “First Man,” stood out from the sea of gowns. The British actress chose a black asymmetrical jumpsuit with a sweeping sleeve, halter-style sparkling bodice and belted trousers by Céline.
Lady Gaga, who tied for Best Actress in a Motion Picture with Glenn Close and won for her song “Swallow,” was the picture of elegance.
