Olivia Rodrigo turned heads in a stunning black Yves Saint Laurent fall 1997 haute couture gown at the 14th annual Governors Awards in Los Angeles on Tuesday.

The 20-year-old music artist — who is dating Louis Partridge — looked elegant and timeless in the classic look, which had a strapless sweetheart neckline.

The GUTS hitmaker kept the ensemble simple, opting not to wear bracelets or a necklace.

Instead, she wore a single diamond ring on one of her fingers, and added geometric silver-toned drop earrings.

The Driver’s License songwriter pulled her lustrous brunette locks into a high ponytail with a side part and swoop bang tucked behind her ear.

Completing the stunning look was a subtle face of makeup, which incorporated softly winged black eyeliner and mascara.

Olivia’s cheeks were lightly dusted in blush, and she rounded out the cosmetics look with a matte red lip.

And she flaunted a short, pristine, glossy, wine-colored manicure while posing for cameras.

While making press round on the red carpet, she discussed her upcoming plans for her 21st birthday in February.

‘I think I’m going to have a party with my friends, pop some champagne,’ she dished to an ET reporter.

Meanwhile, a reporter for Variety asked the High School Musical alum when she plans to return to acting following the success of her music career.

‘That’s the million dollar question,’ she answered before adding, ‘I would love to. I think that’d be really fun. I love movies. I love telling stories.’

More specifically, Rodrigo noted, ‘I really want to do a coming-of-age thing. I just love telling stories, whether that be in a song or a movie, that’s just something that really excites me.’

The Governors Awards is an annual event celebrating performers with honors conferred by the Academy’s Board of Governors.

Other A-listers at Tuesday’s star-studded affair included Penelope Cruz, Eva Longoria, and Angela Bassett, who was honored with an honorary Oscar for her impact on the industry.

Academy President Janet Yang said in a press release of Bassett’s nomination: ‘Across her decades-long career, Angela Bassett has continued to deliver transcendent performances that set new standards in acting.’

The actress has earned two Oscar nominations throughout her time in Hollywood — one for best actress for 1993’s What’s Love Got to Do with It, and another for best supporting actress for last year’s Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, in which she played Queen Ramonda.
