Kate Hudson in Versace

Cutaway details are not the most natural of partners for red carpet dresses but it's definitely seems to be a trend at the Golden Globes. The side details on this Versace dress come adorned with bling, naturally. And no-one wears a white dress on a red carpet better than Ms Hudson.

Amal Alamuddin in Dior couture

The first major red carpet dress for the new Mrs Clooney, Amal Alamuddin opted for a classic dress from Dior couture. It's classy understated but those white gloves were an odd choice of accessory.

Lupita Nyong'o in Giambattista Valli

Lupita was last year's red carpet winner, she went all out in this Giambattista Valli couture gown. But unlike last season where she commanded the red carpet, this dress seems to wear her.

Joanne Froggatt in Marchesa

Joanne Froggatt looks every inch the award winner in this gown by Marchesa. A classic red carpet shape with abit of signature Marchesa glitz thrown in for good measure.

Katie Holmes in Marchesa

A bit of a disappointing dress from Katie Holmes, the plum colour is great on her and whilst the dress shape is perfectly nice, the overall effect is a little boring. The hair and makeup however Katie nails.

Reese Witherspoon in Calvin Klein

Reese Witherspoon shows off her veteran red carpet status in this strapless shimmer gown by Calvin Klein. The colour and shape of the gown plus the old school Hollywood hair and makeup are exactly right.

Julianne Moore in Givenchy Haute Couture by Riccardo Tisci

Fellow attendees take note from this master class in red carpet dressing. Julianne can do no wrong, this Givenchy gown, custom-made of course, has it all; bling, feathers, sparkle.

Jennifer Lopez in Zuhair Murad

Jennifer Lopez doing what Jennifer Lopez does best. Classic JLo hair and makeup teamed with a characteristically spectacular dress.

Kate Beckinsale in Elie Saab

A pretty dress from Elie Saab for Kate Beckinsale. The embellishment on the top of this design saves the look as pale colours like grey and nude in real life look amazing but in pictures tend to end up looking a little drab.

Heidi Klum in Versace

Red carpet glamour nailed by Heidi Klum in this red Versace dress. The colour, the one shoulder detail and draped bodice is all perfection.

Jennifer Aniston in Saint Laurent

Jennifer Aniston unsurprisingly went down the black dress angle. She chose a dress by Saint Laurent with sequinned neckline and thigh high split.

In pictures: Golden Globes 2015 Red Carpet

Salma Hayek in Alexander McQueen

Salma Hayek looks dare I say it, a little bit bridal in this white Alexander McQueen gown, the belt saves the look adding a much needed modern detail.

In pictures: Golden Globes 2015 Red Carpet

Sienna Miller in Miu Miu

Sienna Miller opted for a plunging neckline gown by Miu Miu. The embroidery is a nice added touch that makes this look, as expected from this style icon, just a little bit different from your bog standard red carpet dresses.

Anna Kendrick in Monique Lhuillier

A very big dress for a rather little lady, the colour and pattern are lovely but the whole dress is perhaps just a little too voluminous, overwhelming Anna somewhat.

In pictures: Golden Globes 2015 Red Carpet

Naomi Watts in Gucci

It’s always nice to see colour on the red carpet and the yellow of Naomi’s Gucci gown provides a great pop of colour, however the whole look is rather overshadowed by her spectacular Bulgari snake necklace.

Diane Kruger in Emilia Wickstead

Diane Kruger opted for a gown from British designer Emilia Wickstead. Diane never gets it wrong, the key to her style is keeping things simple, the shift shape and silver hue are effortlessly stylish.

Allison Williams in Armani Prive

Allison Williams chose a bright red ruffled gown by Armani Prive. Amongst a sea of red gowns it's nice to see this one with a little added detail.

Dakota Johnson in Chanel

Dakota Johnson is a million miles from her drab Fifty Shades of Grey alter ego Anastasia Steele, she channels a disco ball (rather well I might add) in this silver strapless look by Chanel.

Amy Adams in Versace

A one shoulder gown in a soft powder blue makes for a very pretty gown with the draping adding some detail, but it’s a safe choice for Amy and won’t be winning any awards.

Rosamund Pike in Vera Wang

Where has Rosamund the English rose gone? This dress would be risqué in any environment, on a red carpet it’s rather raunchy.

Jessica Chastain in Atelier Versace

Jessica Chastain opted for a plunging neckline gown by Atelier Versace. The bronze high-shine colour is an odd choice, perhaps she channeling the Golden Globe she was hoping to win.

Felicity Jones in Christian Dior

Felicity Jones looks every inch the Hollywood star in this princess dress. From the high neckline to the jewel tone teal colour, this dress is a class act.

Catherine Zeta Jones in Angel Sanchez

Catherine Zeta Jones went for a classic strapless red dress that is perfectly nice, but is by no means groundbreaking. Amusing comparisons have been drawn with the famous dancing lady emoticon.

Emily Blunt in Michael Kors

Emily Blunt channels a Grecian goddess in this white dress which was custom made for her by Michael Kors. The combination of the dress and an equally Grecian hairstyle may just push her slightly into the fancy dress category.

Jane Fonda in Versace

This is a very sexy dress which is worn rather well by 77 year old Jane Fonda. Bright red, figure hugging and even a side cut-out detail .

Lorde in Narciso Rodriguez

Lorde makes a daring choice in a Narciso Rodriguez suit, great to see a breakaway from the normal red carpet gowns, if only this was a little more fitted.

Lana Del Rey in Travilla

Lana Del Rey appears to be channeling mermaid chic in this emerald green pleated gown.

Patricia Arquette in Escada

Patricia Arquette opts for a classic black one shoulder gown by Escada for a timeless red carpet look.

Helen Mirren in Dolce & Gabbana

Glitz and glam from a red carpet veteran, Helen Mirren opted for a dress in Dolce & Gabbana’s signature bright red with the addition of some bling on the neckline.

Emma Stone in Lanvin

Emma Stone breaks the mould in a Lanvin jumpsuit. Not wearing a dress is a risk at an event like this but the combination of the embellishment of the top half of this with the caped back makes it work.

Viola Davis in Donna Karan

Wearing red on the red carpet is a fail-safe option. Add to that the dramatic train on Viola’s Donna Karan gown and you’re onto a winner.

Kerry Washington in Mary Katrantzou

Kerry Washington is flying the flag for London Fashion Week favourite Mary Katrantzou in a pink and navy gown. It’s a classic shape but with a hint of Katrantzou’s iconic prints.

Melissa McCarthy in a custom dress

Monochrome is a timeless colour combination. A half tuxedo, half dress creation however is not. The bow tie is a nice added detail to this look that Melissa made herself!

Ruth Wilson in Prada

Mossy green is not an easy colour to wear on the red carpet, but Ruth pulls it off in this Prada shift dress complete with contrast stitching detail.

Quvenzhane Wallis in Armani

One of the youngest red carpet attendees, Quvenzhane Wallis is the envy of 11 year olds everywhere in this Armani dress.

Julianna Margulies in Ulyana Sergeenko

A classic red strapless gown for Julianna. The dress falling just above ankle length is a modern hemline update for chic black tie-dressing.

Uzo Aduba

A sequin halter neck number for Uzo, on closer observation the intricate multi-colour beading detail on this dress is quite amazing.

Keira Knightley in Chanel

Keira Knightley likes to think outside the box when it comes to the red carpet, this custom made dress by Chanel isn't to everyone's taste but with its feather embroidery, it's a thing of beauty.

Claire Danes in Valentino

Rather dark for the red carpet but this is another gown where the devil is in the detail. Feathers make up this rather spectacular Valentino look.

Lena Dunham in Zac Posen

Possibly the best Lena has ever looked, a bright red gown with draped back and asymmetric hemline. Flattering and fashion forward.

Taylor Schilling in Ralph Lauren

Another red gown, the bottom half of this gown is great, the top half with a peekaboo neckline let's it down.

Michelle Monaghan in Jason Wu

Michelle perfectly channels 90s glam-rock (think Kate Moss) in this beaded slip dress by Jason Wu.

Maggie Gyllenhaal in Miu Miu

Eek we love Maggie and we love Miu Miu, but this gown is not just the wrong colour but also a little ill-fitting on Maggie.

Gwyneth Paltrow in Michael Kors

Gwyneth Paltrow skipped the red carpet and instead went straight to presenting duties. For the occasion Gwyneth wore a bright pink plunging neckline gown by Michael Kors. It's difficult to assess this gown without the full length visual but the pink colour is a nice shade from the prevalent reds and silvers dominating this year's Golden Globe awards
