THE OSCARS IN PICTURES: THE GLITZ AND GLAM

With their first ever Academy Awards in hand, the celebrations weren't about to end early for Leonardo DiCaprio, 41, and Brie Larson, 26. 
The 88th Annual Oscar's Best Actor and Best Actress joined fellow actors Jennifer Lawrence - a past winner of the golden trophy - and Sofia Vergara, as well as musicians Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift who partied with the models Kate Upton and Miranda Kerr.
After picking up their gongs at The Governors Ball, the duo hot-footed it to tinsel town's hottest parties, including the annual Vanity Fair bash at the Wallis Annenberg Center, which was also attended by Elton John, who had hosted his own suitably star-studded affair at West Hollywood Park.

Hitting the afterparties: (From left) Oscars winners Leonardo DiCaprio and Brie Larson joined Jennifer Lawrence at Sunday night's afterparties, with Vanity Fair's annual bash at the Wallis Annenberg Center first attracting the actors
She won the award for Best Actress at last night's Academy Awards, but Brie Larsson has got to be a contender for best dressed too.
The Room actress opted for a beautiful blue Gucci gown for the main event, but she totally knocked our socks off in this velvet dress for the Vanity Fair party. The thigh high split, asymmetric off the shoulder shape and cut out side all together are super flattering. And the pale pink velvet material? Perfection!
It's by Monse, a brand new label by Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia whose Fall 2016 collection (which this dress hails from) is only their second ever. And already they can count fans such as Selena Gomez and Sienna Miller so they must be doing something right!
Click the link (right) to add this name to your ever-growing list of labels to watch. Or if you want to recreate Brie's look on the high street, let our edit below be your guide. Get touchy feely in Topshop Unique or this House of CB dress is an easy way to buy into the velvet trend.* PRICES MAY NOT BE AS ADVERTISED

For a man who has made four unsuccessful attempts at gold, Leonardo maintained his composure at the post-ceremony celebrations and was poised with a self-assured smile on his face.
The first stop was the official afterparty, the Governors Ball, which is hosted every year to give the top names a chance to see the plaques being etched onto their trophies.
The Revenant star Leo was sure to attend the do, at the Hollywood & Highland Center - where he picked up his long-awaited gong - and the Vanity Fair after party before he then headed out to grab a very late dinner at Argo restaurant.
His mother Irmelin Indenbirken was captured in the back of his taxi, seemingly accompanying him to the post-parties after serving as his red carpet date to the ceremony. 
Brie was also there, with Best Original Song winner Sam Smith, Best Supporting Actress Alicia Vikander and Best Director Alejandro Gonzalez, with whom Leonardo obviously worked on The Revenant. 
Happy now? Leonardo watched as his gong was finalised inside the Governors Ball afterparty
