The Golden Globes red carpet marked a dazzling opening chapter to the 2026 awards season. Beyond the 28 awards given to honour the best of talent across film, television and podcast, Golden Globes 2026 made headlines for the best red carpet looks. As celebrities stepped onto Hollywood’s most photographed promenade, one thing became clear: simplicity ruled more than headline-making drama, unlike sheer and “naked dress” obsession making news in the last few seasons.
Attuned to that, celebrities chose fur, silks, tulle, satin, sequins, flowy drapes and crystals but in minimalism rather than overdoing it. From Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Amanda Seyfried and Kate Hudson to host Nikki Glaser, elegance reigned supreme, proving that simplicity, when done right, still turns heads. As celebrities put their best foot front, we decode the best looks from the Golden Globes 2026.
Priyanka Chopra Jonas
Priyanka Chopra Jonas made the country proud yet again, presenting the award for the Golden Globe Best Male Actor In Television category to Noah Wyle for The Pitt, sharing the stage with K-pop girl band BLACKPINK rapper Lisa. Chopra looked elegant in a custom deep navy blue Dior Haute Couture gown crafted by Jonathan Anderson. The look featured a satin strapless bodice paired with a flowy layered skirt. The Citadel actor completed the look with a bold Bvlgari statement neckpiece that added a sophisticated sheen to her subtle look.
Kate Hudson
Kate Hudson looked like a vision channelling the 1930s Hollywood glamour with a silver shimmery gown from Giorgio Armani Privé. The ensemble had a combination of silvery crystals and silk fringes in gunmetal tones, with a diamond forming a halter neckline, accentuated by Garatti diamond jewellery for that extra touch of sparkle.
Jennifer Lawrence
Perhaps one of our favourite looks from the award season, Jennifer Lawrence stole the show at ‘Hollywood’s Biggest Party’ in a sheer floral look by Givenchy, designed by Sarah Burton. The ensemble featured a slashed tulle gown dotted with detailed floral embroidery and a surprisingly amusing powder-pink embroidered bomber jacket, which she later removed. The actor paired the alluring yet sensuous look with matching platform heels, a floral clutch, and a bespoke Swarovski Created Diamonds necklace.
Tessa Thompson
Stealing the limelight does not require excess dressing, and Tesse Thompson’s Golden Globes 2026 look proved it. Her red carpet look balanced polished minimalism with a green off-shoulder shimmer gown paired with nothing but just a few stacks of rings and a statement bracelet, leaving her hands, shoulders and neck almost bare for a sexy touch.
Selena Gomez
It was Selena Gomez’s first Golden Globes appearance as a newlywed, as the Lose You To Love Me singer arrived alongside husband Benny Blanco. While her black velvet Chanel gown with white floral appliqués crafted from feathers, silk chiffon and organza, designed by Matthieu Blazy and styled by Erin Walsh, was a tad predictable to take any fashion notes, Gomez’s elaborate rings and earrings accentuated the look, adding the bling to the Golden Globes 2026 red carpet.
George and Amal Clooney
No one embodies classic Hollywood romance better than the power couple George and Amal Clooney. As they walked the red carpet hand in hand at Golden Globes 2026, George looked snazzy in a tailored Giorgio Armani tuxedo while Amal dazzled in a red Balmain gown with a sweetheart neckline and soft ruching, accented with Cartier diamond earrings and a white-gold tennis bracelet.
Julia Roberts
Julia Roberts delivered quiet drama in a structured black gown with bold shoulders, a plunging neckline and a breezy skirt. The surprise element? A whimsical Swarovski strawberry pendant hanging from a gold chain which created an air of intrigue around her otherwise classic look.
Timothée Chalamet
Staying true to his personal style, Timothée Chalamet brought an element of rebellion in his edgy all-black Chrome Hearts ensemble. His velvet vest, blazer and trousers were paired with Chrome Hearts x Timberland boots, a Cartier Panthère pendant and an Urban Jürgensen platinum timepiece, letting his individual style take centre stage at the red carpet tradition.
