The 2026 Golden Globes proved to be extraordinary, with one of the strongest nominee rosters in history. In the women’s categories alone, Hollywood’s most resounding names — including Jennifer Lawrence, Julia Roberts, Cynthia Erivo, Emma Stone, and Amanda Seyfried — competed for awards, so best believe the red carpet was the most stacked it’s been in years.
Held on Sunday night at the Beverly Hilton, guests like Jenna Ortega and Kate Hudson brought the drama in fringe ensembles that sashayed with their every step. Feathers were also a big hit among the style set, cosigned both by Selena Gomez and newcomer Odessa A’zion (Marty Supreme), who wore two varying takes on the plumed look.
On the color palette front, many attendees kept it sleek in black, including Ariana Grande, whose Vivienne Westwood gown officially marked the end of her Glinda Pink era. Meanwhile, Love Island alum Olandria Carthen went against the grain in a vibrant emerald bustier gown with a figure-hugging mermaid silhouette.
The biggest trend was — surprise, surprise — the “naked dress.” The ever-beloved sheer look was embraced by Jennifer Lopez, Lisa Manobal, and Jennifer Lawrence, who bared her booty in a near-translucent Givenchy gown embroidered with dainty florals.
Ahead, the best-dressed attendees from the 2026 Golden Globes.
Ayo Edebiri
Ayo Edebiri’s two-toned off-the-shoulder Chanel gown was a masterclass in making the brooch trend feel fresh — just peep the pearl-adorned fastenings on either sleeve. Paired with that emerald ring and blowout? So Old Hollywood, so chic.
Selena Gomez
This may have been Selena Gomez’s best red carpet look yet: a Chanel LBD with a white, feather-trimmed, off-the-shoulder neckline.
Olandria Carthen
Love Island phenom Olandria Carthen traded in the villa for the Globes’ red carpet in a strapless bustier gown with an exaggerated mermaid silhouette. In a sea of LBDs, she stood out in a vibrant emerald green — and it simply *worked*.
Lalisa Manobal
The “naked dress” lives on, thanks to Lisa’s flowy, see-through number that flaunted her Intimissimi bandeau bra. Her pièce de résistance, however, was her collar necklace from Bulgari’s new Eternal collection.
Kate Hudson
Kate Hudson was glitz personified in a Giorgio Armani Privé silver fringe halter gown lined with massive crystals and teeny rhinestone strings. Paired with her megawatt smile, it all added up to a dazzling look.
Ariana Grande
Goodbye, Glinda. Ariana Grande officially exited her pink witch era at the Golden Globes, where she strutted down the carpet in a black, avant-garde Vivienne Westwood Couture ballgown.
Jennifer Lawrence
Jaws dropped when Jennifer Lawrence walked the carpet in the nakedest dress she’s ever worn: a floral-embroidered, see-through Givenchy number.
Odessa A’zion
In a midriff-baring plumed top, opera gloves, and black trousers, Odessa A’zion is proving to be a style star in the making.
Elle Fanning
Elle Fanning was in full bloom on the red carpet — literally. Teeny florettes in shades of periwinkle blossomed on her plunging Gucci gown with exaggerated hips.
Jenna Ortega
In Dilara Findikoglu, Jenna Ortega rocked her signature vampy style, albeit with a spicy, sideboob-baring twist.
Jennifer Lopez
Lest you forgot why Jennifer Lopez wears “naked dresses,” let her sheer mermaid gown at the Golden Globes remind you. As she said during her Las Vegas residency: “If you had this body, you’d be naked too.”
Amanda Seyfried
Amanda Seyfried was immaculate in a draped strapless Versace stunner, which she paired with a matching ivory stole and blinding Tiffany & Co. jewels.
Justine Lupe
The most risqué dresser was Justine Lupe, who wore a sheer powder pink Giorgio Armani Privé gown to the fête. With embroidered crystal drops and pleated crinoline layers, she looked every bit ethereal.
