The 83rd Annual Golden Globe Awards delivered a red carpet that balanced cinematic glamour with contemporary fashion narratives. From couture-level craftsmanship to Gen Z-coded menswear, this year’s best dressed celebrities proved that 2026 is shaping up to be a year where tradition meets reinvention. Below, our definitive best dressed list—ranked not by shock value, but by styling intelligence, craftsmanship, and cultural relevance.
Jennifer Lawrence in Custom Givenchy by Sarah Burton
Jennifer Lawrence marked a powerful fashion moment at the Golden Globes 2026 in a custom Givenchy design by newly appointed creative director Sarah Burton. The look felt like a soft yet confident reintroduction of Givenchy’s couture sensibility under Burton’s vision.
Lawrence wore a powder-pink satin shawl-collar bomber layered over a slashed tulle gown, intricately detailed with satin stitching and sequin embroidery. The juxtaposition of a sporty silhouette against couture-level embellishment struck a modern balance between ease and elegance. Matching satin sandals and a coordinated clutch completed the tonal look.
This ensemble wasn’t just visually striking—it signaled a new era for Givenchy, blending romanticism, femininity, and contemporary structure. For Lawrence, it was a masterclass in understated red-carpet authority and undoubtedly one of my most favorite carpet looks of all time.
Elle Fanning in Gucci with Cartier High Jewelry
Elle Fanning once again proved her status as a modern red-carpet muse in a custom Gucci gown paired with Cartier High Jewelry. The sleeveless design featured a plunging V-neckline edged with delicate appliqué, flowing into a fitted bodice that subtly flared into a floor-length skirt with a gentle train.
At the back, the gown mirrored the deep V-cut, leaving the upper back elegantly exposed—an effect that felt sensual yet refined. Fanning accessorized with a Cartier High Jewelry necklace and matching rings, elevating the look without overpowering it.
Her beauty look remained soft and romantic, with pink lips and a touch of blush, reinforcing the ethereal quality she’s known for. The result was timeless Hollywood glamour with a contemporary softness that felt entirely on-brand.
Chase Infiniti in Custom Louis Vuitton
Chase Infiniti delivered one of the evening’s most sculptural silhouettes in a custom Louis Vuitton ensemble. She wore a mirrored appliqué bustier that flared dramatically around the hips, creating a bold, architectural shape that immediately commanded attention.
The look was grounded by a long black velvet skirt that flowed into a train, offering contrast through texture and restraint. Infiniti accessorized with chandelier earrings, a diamond bracelet, and coordinating rings, keeping the jewelry classic to balance the statement top. Her hair was worn loose and natural, allowing the craftsmanship of the garment to take center stage.
This look exemplified Louis Vuitton’s ability to merge high-fashion experimentation with red-carpet wearability—dramatic, but impeccably controlled.
Lisa in Jacquemus Spring/Summer 2026 Ready-To-Wear
Lisa embraced high drama at the Golden Globes in a striking gown from Jacquemus Spring/Summer 2026 Ready-To-Wear. The design featured a sheer, billowing bodice paired with a fluid, form-skimming silhouette that moved effortlessly with the body.
Batwing, capelike sleeves flowed into statement tassels, reinforcing the ongoing “dark glamour” trend that has dominated fashion since 2024. The look subtly referenced Victorian-era drama through its sheer fabrics and exaggerated shapes, while remaining distinctly modern in execution.
By choosing a runway-ready Jacquemus look rather than couture, Lisa reaffirmed her role as a fashion-forward tastemaker—someone who brings editorial fashion directly onto the red carpet.
Omar Apollo in Valentino and Swarovski
Omar Apollo delivered one of the most distinctly Gen Z menswear moments of the night. Styled by Brandon Tan, the musician wore a silky midnight-blue Valentino suit paired with a patterned tie and a striped shirt—an unconventional choice that softened the formality of traditional red-carpet dressing.
What truly defined the look was the accessorizing: Swarovski silver jewelry including stacked necklaces, rimless eyewear, and crystal-adorned earrings created a layered, nostalgic, and undeniably sexy aesthetic. The result felt intentional, expressive, and culturally attuned.
Apollo’s look stood out not for excess, but for confidence—proof that modern menswear on the red carpet thrives when personal style leads the conversation.
Kylie Jenner in Custom ASHI STUDIO Couture
Kylie Jenner closed the night with a high-octane couture moment in a custom ASHI STUDIO gown. The strapless silhouette centered on a sculpted corset, entirely hand-embroidered with antique metallic sequins that caught the light with every movement.
Custom crystal baguette straps added a futuristic edge, contrasting beautifully with the old-world craftsmanship of the embroidery. The result was a look that felt simultaneously archival and forward-thinking—a balance ASHI STUDIO has mastered in recent couture seasons.
Jenner’s choice reaffirmed her position as a red-carpet risk-taker who consistently champions emerging couture houses on a global stage.
