Nominee Kerry Condon wows in sheer black dress at Chanel and Charles Finch’s Pre-Oscar dinner before her big night at the Academy Awards
Kerry Condon cut a stylish figure at the Chanel and Charles Finch pre-Oscar awards dinner in Beverly Hills on Saturday.
The actress, 40, who is nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role in the Banshees of Inisherin, looked elegant as she was pictured with other stars.
She donned a unique semi-sheer black dress, emblazoned with circular dotted details at the Polo Lounge.
The star wore a large bespoke grey collar over her shoulders, while strappy heels added inches to her frame.
She kept her make-up natural while her long blonde tresses had a gentle wave as they cascaded over her shoulders and grey collar.

The 14th annual pre-Oscars soiree also hosted the likes of Rita Ora, Lily James, Kristen Stewart and Nicole Kidman, who all brought their fashion A-game to the California venue.
The celebration returned last year following a two-year hiatus due to the coronavirus pandemic.
This year saw some struggle to move the stars between rooms, as Kerry attempted to get a drink from a bar that had already shut.
Kerry plays Siobhán Súilleabháin, the sister of Colin Farrell’s character Padraic, in the Banshees of Inisherin.
Her widely-acclaimed performance of the complex character has earned her a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress.
She previously won a BAFTA for Best Actress in a Supporting Role for the film – and received nominations for the Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress – Motion Picture and the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role in a Motion Picture.
The Banshees is a black tragicomedy about two lifelong friends, played by Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson.
Set on the fictional isle of Inisherin off the west coast of Ireland, the film explores the tension between the friends after one ends a relationship.

Kerry, who hails from County Tipperary in Ireland, previously worked with the film’s director Martin McDonagh on The Lieutenant of Inishmore and The Cripple of Inishmaan,
Her career took of when she became the youngest actress to ever play Ophelia in the Royal Shakespeare Company’s staging of Hamlet at the age of 18.
Her latest public appearance comes after Kerry remained coy when she was quizzed on the nature of her relationship with her co-star Colin.
She and reformed Hollywood bad boy Colin previously appeared together in the BBC’s Ballykissangel, which first aired in 1996, and Kerry has now cheekily left fans wondering just how acquainted the stars got after first working together.
According to The Sun, she said: ‘I met Colin Farrell.
‘And that’s all I’m going to say about that . . . we had a great time. And then he got a plane to America.’
MailOnline has contacted representatives for Kerry and Colin for comment.
Kerry has also known Colin for most of her acting career, and joked in 2004 that she was ‘always drunk’ when she happened to see him.
‘I always regret the next morning how drunk I got with him. I’m terrible, I only need one person to say, “Ah, come on,” and suddenly it’s three o’clock in the morning,’ she told the Irish Independent.
