Get ready because the 2019 red carpet season is almost here!
On Sunday, award season commences with the Golden Globes 2019, and you know what that means—epic, stop-and-stare red carpet fashion. Golden Globes regulars like Nicole Kidman, Amy Adams and Regina King are sure to continue their year-over-year fashion streak of awing looks. However, this year, Constance Wu and SZA, who received their first nominations, will appear on the carpet in statement-making fashion. It’s going to be an fashion event you don’t want to miss.
As the anticipation increases, we’re revisiting past years and getting more excited about what’s to come. Last year, the vast majority of celebrities wore black in support of the Time’s Up movement, an initiative to fight sexual harassment, assault and inequality across all industries. It was a “black sea of luxury labels.” However ,knowing that everyone would wear the same hue, celebs stepped out of the box in terms of fabric choice, dress silhouettes and accessories (See: Diane Kruger‘s sheer cape). The result was epic.
While 2018 was different from previous years, we’ve never been disappointed by the annual event’s red carpet fashion. Awing gowns, beautiful bags, shoes that would make Carrie Bradshaw scramble from her credit card—this award show reveals the Hollywood glamour that everyone loves.
Prepare to be mesmerized by the best Golden Globes looks of all time below!
