Hollywood’s top stars hit the red carpet at the Golden Globes on Sunday, the first major event leading up to the Oscars. They provided a big dose of old-school glamour.
A look at some of the looks from the Beverly Hilton Hotel:
Always chic black
Selena Gomez is newly married and you can see how happy she is. The actress, nominated for Best Comedy Actress for her role in ‘Only Murders in the Building’, beamed with joy as she appeared on the arm of her husband Benny Blanco. She radiated pure elegance in a black column dress by Chanel. The dress featured a voluptuous white feathered strapless neckline. Her black bob was styled in soft waves.
Gomez wasn’t the only one who opted for a subtle appearance. Many stars opted for black or dark, wintery tones. Teyana Taylor was recognized for her powerful portrayal of a left-wing revolutionary in the critically acclaimed film ‘One Battle After Another’. She wowed on the carpet in a backless black Schiaparelli cutout dress with a halter neckline. A cheeky crystal bow adorned her buttocks.
Ariana Grande (‘Wicked: For Good’), who competed with Taylor for the best supporting actress award, turned heads. She wore a black textured Vivienne Westwood ball gown with an asymmetrical neckline and a floor-length bubble silhouette. Her hair was tied into her signature ponytail. She kept the jewelry simple with a diamond choker.
Amy Madigan, also nominated in this category for her villainous role in ‘Weapons’, opted for a tuxedo look. She paired it with cropped pants and patent leather boots.
Nominee Jenna Ortega embraced the goth chic of her title character in ‘Wednesday’. She wore a high-neck black dress by Dilara Findikoglu with glittering epaulettes and cutouts. These revealed some ‘side boob’ and part of her hip bone.
Among the male stars present, Colman Domingo stood out as usual. He wore an all-black look from Valentino, with silver appliqués spread from the left shoulder across the lapel to the waist.
Naked ambitions
Jennifer Lopez is known for her strong fashion statements. Her plunging green Versace dress at the 2000 Grammys is still a reference example of how to conquer the red carpet with the ‘less is more’ rule.
On Sunday, Lopez, whose role in ‘Kiss of the Spider Woman’ was overlooked by Globes voters, wore a figure-hugging, sheer dress. Bronze-colored patterns snaked down her body and ended in a mermaid tail.
Jennifer Lawrence, nominated for best drama actress for ‘Die My Love’, also seemed to get the message. She wore a barely-there sheer nude Givenchy dress decorated with just a few strategically placed flowers.
Stars criticize deadly ICE shooting
There’s hardly an evening in Hollywood without a hint of politics.
On Sunday, several stars, including nominee Mark Ruffalo, wore buttons that read “BE GOOD.” This is a reference to Renee Good, a Minneapolis woman who was shot and killed by an immigration officer.
Comedian Wanda Sykes wore the same pin on her lapel. Actress Natasha Lyonne, nominated for her TV show ‘Poker Face’, clipped one to her clutch.
The campaign is supported by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). The ACLU is one of the most prominent civil rights organizations in the country.(AFP)
