The Oscar ceremony took place at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on March 11, with the top Hollywood stars in attendance. Matthew McConaughey, known for his heartbreaking roles in “Interstellar” and “True Detective,” attended the event with his wife Camila, to whom he has been married for nine years.
Camila McConaughey, a Brazilian model and designer, chose a unique style for her Oscar look that left some fans speechless and amazed. She paired a long black elegant gown with a sparkling embellished bra and a chunky necklace to match.

The sleeves of the dress were made of a plastic-like material, glistening in the paparazzi flashlights. The model let her hair down in relaxed waves and went for a bold makeup look with bronze contouring and nude lips.
It turns out that the dress was custom-made by Atelier Versace, with custom sleeves-gloves made by Atsuko Kudo Latex. Camila paired such a chic and stunning outfit with dazzling jewelry from Bulgari, and after pictures of her look were released, she posted:
“@donatella_versace this dress designed special by YOU custom made for me by Atelier Versace @versace was a dream !!! Truly…Thank you!!!” wrote the model.
The public was even more in love with the outfit than Camila herself. Some considered the look to be the most stylish one on the Oscars’ red carpet. “She outclassed all the entertainers!” commented a user. “She is the best dressed elegant woman there! [sic]” another agreed.

Some fashion admirers paid respect to the dress and jewelry choice, with one user commenting, “Seems so unique as I’ve not seen that style before.” Another person added, “The necklace is to die for.”
While Matthew McConaughey’s wife was wowing the audience with her fashion statement, he wore a simple dark-brown suit by Versace with a white button-up shirt and a black bowtie.

The actor slicked his hair back and put on a pair of glasses to shield himself from the flashes of the cameras.
Despite the glamorous looks of the couple, a fan decided to remind the public how humble Matthew McConaughey and his wife really are. “[I] reckon these two are so down to earth that they’ll be looking like the rest of us for the rest of the week,” a user wrote, and was correct. The couple is truly far away from the busy LA life, with their house in the suburbs of Texas.
Matthew McConaughey’s heart belongs to Texas, and since making the Lone Star State their permanent home in 2014, he and his wife Camila have fully embraced its charm. From cheering on the University of Texas football team to teaching film courses at his alma mater, Matthew has become a true Texan ambassador.
It wasn’t an easy decision, though. Camila fondly recalls their idyllic life in Malibu, complete with a beautiful home and a yard where she tended to her beloved bees. However, a family crisis led them to Austin temporarily, where Camila noticed a change in Matthew — a lightness, a freedom that seemed to emanate from Texas itself.
One evening, as they paused at a red light, Camila asked the question that would change their lives: “You want to move here, don’t you?” With laughter and a resounding “Yep,” they made the decision to embrace Texas as their new home, finding unexpected familiarity and joy in its landscapes and culture.
As Matthew McConaughey and his wife Camila gracefully navigate the spotlight, their deep roots in Texas remind us that true elegance transcends fleeting trends. Their down-to-earth demeanor and steadfast love for each other and their home state stand as a symbol of enduring class and timeless sophistication.
