Awards season is back, baby! After a 2023 Hollywood strike that lasted 148 days, 2024 is starting with a star-studded — and stylish — bang. The 81st annual Golden Globes took place on January 7 in Los Angeles and the Golden Globes 2024 red carpet didn’t disappoint. Scarlet red and creamy neutrals were the colours of the evening, and strapless gowns seem to be making a strong return, but there was no lack of interesting embellishment, proportions and accessories among the looks.
Talent from television and movies are honoured at the Golden Globe awards, and despite almost half of 2023 having been impacted by the Hollywood strike, the pool of nominees was impressive with cult-favourite shows like Succession, and films including Barbie and Oppenheimer, raking in the most nominations.
A-list celebrities from Selena Gomez to Jennifer Lawrence strutted the red carpet in designs from Armani Privé and Dior Haute Couture respectively, while internet boyfriends like Saltburn anti-hero Barry Keoghan went bold with their menswear choices. The Irish breakout star looked impossibly cool in crimson Louis Vuitton, and Pedro Pascal wore a patterned Bottega Veneta turtleneck accessorized with an arm sling.
Rising stars like Priscilla’s Cailee Spaeny and The Bear’s Ayo Edebiri wore strapless Miu Miu and Prada creations, with the former opting for a sweetheart neckline and a full skirt and the latter going ’90s minimal in a column gown with a sleek mini-train (which looked chic, incidentally, when she collected the Golden Globe award for best actress in a TV musical or comedy).
Meanwhile, ladies of a certain age (that’s to say, 55 and over) slayed the red carpet, with stars like Gillian Anderson and Angela Bassett stunning in curve-hugging gowns from designers like Gabriela Hearst and Dolce & Gabbana.
