Jovovich is wearing a stunning one-shouldered silvery white gown by Paris-based designer Elie Saab. She also wore him at the recent Oscar Sci-Tech Awards.

She told reporters that since this is her first time at the Oscars, she wanted to wear this gown because it was clean and simple. She also is wearing Jacob and Co jewelry (she modeled in one of its ad campaigns) and is carrying a purse by Edie Parker.
