Mikey Madison isn’t necessarily new to Hollywood—she earned her chops in projects like Scream, Once Upon a Time…in Hollywood, and the comedy series Better Things. But the 25-year-old’s career-defining turn as Ani, the titular sex worker of Sean Baker’s Palme d’Or-winning film Anora, has cemented her as a breakout star both on and off the theater screen.
Madison’s fashion star skyrocketed at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival where she hit the croisette in demure Chanel couture outfits. A partnership with the celebrity stylist Jamie Mizrahi (who has worked with names like Jennifer Lawrence and Riley Keough) laid the groundwork for Madison’s red carpet style in the months to come. The actress certainly has a preference for minimal designs from labels like Fendi, Prada, and Louis Vuitton, but is also willing to take a few risks every now and then—the cherry-red Schiaparelli dress, designed entirely out of acyclic nails, that Madison wore to the New York Anora premiere certainly comes to mind.
So, as the 2025 awards season continues to take shape, see all Mikey Madison’s best red carpet moments, here.
