The 81st Golden Globes Award took off with much gusto recently and the creme-de-la-creme of Hollywood graced the event in style. The event acknowledges talents across film and television, but it’s also the fashion parade that unleashes on the red carpet that has everyone’s attention.
It was raining stars from big names like Margot Robbie who seemed still to be pretty much in her Barbie era as she opted for the 1977 Superstar Barbie doll outfit. Statement-making ruffles, long trains, bodycon silhouettes, sequins and metal fabrics reigned supreme as forever-trending style statements. Colour palettes had a mix of scarlet to pastel hues as the current trend demands. This event has had a legacy of some of the most iconic ensembles witnessed from the much-talked-about Schiaparelli voluminous outfit of Rihanna to the pinstriped skirt suit sported by Julia Roberts in 1991, Hillary Swank’s maternity look from Prada made heads turn as did the spiderweb dress with studded crystals sported by Jessica Chastain which was an instant newsmaker. This year, all eyes were on the regulars such as Jennifer Lopez, Jennifer Aniston, Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, Meryl Streep, Reese Witherspoon, Emily Blunt and Emma Stone to name a few and they sure didn’t disappoint as they dazzled at the ceremony with their chosen wardrobe-essentials.
Here’s a look at the best-dressed women at the event:
Amanda Seyfried was a member of the bow trend bandwagon as she opted for a striking off-shoulder black gown with a gigantic shimmering purple bow on top, studded exquisitely with Swarovski crystals. She was one of the few stars who opted for bold eye-makeup with her smokey eyes complimented with nude lips and a sleek hairdo.
Still reeling in her Barbie era, Margot Robbie’s outfit was inspired by the 1977 Superstar Barbie toy. A gorgeous bodycon fit in the quintessential hot pink hue, sequins spread all across the bodice. She went for a glamorous boa in a tulle fabric that gave off the illusion of a loofah. A matching shiny clutch to go with, blow dried hair and minimal makeup with glossy lips completed her look.
Coming in with flair sporting a sexy silk gown in ruby red colour was the singing sensation Selena Gomez. The top part featured a halter neck silhouette with cut-outs in the neckline. There were three 3D flowers embroidered vertically below the criss-cross detailing in the shoulder area. The bottom was a fuller skirt in the same colour and asymmetrical finish. Some pointy heels and classy silver jewellery were the finishing touches to her look.
Sequins have long been a chosen trend for the red carpet, what with all the bling they bring with them! Taylor Swift strutted in sporting an electric green bodycon gown studded with sequins. It had noodle straps and a cupped bra cut. Simple and sexy! Her golden brown hair featured forehead bangs. Subtle liner, dollops of mascara and a glossy lip were her picks for the day.
When it comes to Jennifer Aniston, prepare to experience something timeless. She opted for an off-shoulder black bodycon gown. The lower fit had a scalloped design to it and like they say, less is more! What did start a conversation was her haircut which looked like it was inspired big-time from her iconic Rachel Cut from F.R.I.E.N.D.S Season 1 where it ended just a tad bit above her shoulder. Minimal makeup with those sparkling blue eyes made her stand out.
Keeping it simple and elegant, Reese Witherspoon went for a pastel pink and black bodycon gown. She was very much on board with the classic 2024 trend of the big bow that was seen on the upper half of her gown, placed subtly. She kept her makeup towards the bare side, choosing a fresh and natural look. A top bun with some hair let loose and a statement diamond necklace completed her look.
The Oppenheimer actress decided to go risque with her slip dress for the Golden Globes night this year that was accompanied by a sheer skirt. The metallic dress had several embellishments, beginning with the neckline that was studded with golden sequins and some intricate floral designs. The backless dress also featured a mermaid-inspired skirt that looked as stunning as ever. Diamond jewellery, a cocktail ring and metallic gold nails to go with it, she nailed this look.
Walking in with some queen-sized energy in her voluminous pink gown was Jennifer Lopez. The floor-length gown had a long train and some giant roses that were instantly eye-catching. The dramatic sleeves upped the glamour quotient by heaps and bounds, hence she dialled it down with minimal jewels and her glam look for the day.
The mermaid silhouette was a common pick on the Golden Globes red carpet this year. The British singer went for a velvet black gown with a bustier fit. The off-shoulder piece had signature styles reflecting on the design such as gilded bones in gold and diamond skillfully stitched into a skull shape on the upper bodice. The lower part as mentioned was a mermaid cut, a gold and platinum necklace and matching studs completed her look.
The icon was all about sophistication on the red carpet. She paired a stunning white silk blouse with a huge bow with a black sequined jacket and completed it with a matching floor-length skirt. A jazzy cat-eye pair of glasses, some drop earrings and a neatly tied hairdo were the finishing touches to her look.
The actress redefined what it takes to look effortlessly classy in a long velvet gown in a gorgeous midnight blue colour palette. It had a plunging neckline and a short train at the bottom. Keeping it simple she went for some shiny minimal jewellery and a muted makeup look with her hair swept on one side in straight locks.
Another champagne-hued slip dress that was studded with sequins all over. Many fashion critics compared it to the famous naked dress trend too. There were some pastel pink and blue flower embroideries noticed as well. A plunging neckline and a thigh-high slit were the sultry notes added to her look. She accessorised with drop earrings and nude heels for footwear.
Trust Billie Eilish to always do something out of the ordinary. She went for a light blue shirt with Peter Pan collars that also had a black ribbon and layered it with an oversized black blazer. She completed the look with a pleated skirt in a beige colour and formal flat shoes with socks.
A classic example of dopamine dressing was the very charming Michelle Yeoh who opted for a red-orange strapless gown with a sculpted neckline. It featured bustier details with a more corset-like bit around the abdomen area and a low back. She left her hair loose in voluminous waves and completed her ensemble with drop earrings.
The actress went for a fiery red strappy gown with a plunging neckline and floral applique all across the bodice. The sheer gown was all about the drama as was her foxy silver hair in a faux hawk-inspired style. The statement diamond necklace and earrings were the perfect touches to her sexy outfit.
She looked right out of poetry in a multi-hued floral sequin gown. An empire waistline, a slightly billowing fit from the waist and a square neckline were the details noticed on her gown. A neat hairdo and smokey eyes with a peachy lip were her glam picks for the day.
The giant bow returned with Elle Fanning gracing the red carpet in an elegant champagne-coloured gown. Simple and stunning, She rounded off her looks with a dainty diamond necklace, matching studs, ivory heels and a vivid tint for her lips.
The actress went vintage with a fiery red ball gown with a scooped neckline. She even had pockets in her gown which is always preferred! The matte red voluminous skirt silhouette of the gown looked regal on the red carpet. She accessorized with a chained metallic golden necklace and her hair tied back in a low ponytail.
The incredible Oprah Winfrey was styled in a violet long beaded gown. It had long sleeves, a bodycon fit and a subtle off-the-shoulder neckline. Matching drop earrings, cocktail rings, and beautiful wave-like curls rounded off her look with utmost panache.
She went for a combination of skin-bearing and black lace bodycon dress. The sheer dress was a floor-length gown and had a low backless cut. She completed her look with a slightly messy bun and diamond jewellery.
