Watch as stars walk the Golden Globes red carpet

The 2026 Golden Globes have officially kicked off awards season — and celebrities have taken their fashion game to the next level to celebrate.

Stars from TV and film walked the red carpet in show-stopping looks crafted by luxury designers ahead of the 83rd annual ceremony, held at the Beverly Hilton in California and hosted by Nikki Glaser for the second consecutive year.

One Battle After Another led with nine nods, including acting nominations for Leonardo DiCaprio and Chase Infiniti, and a directing nomination for Paul Thomas Anderson. Meanwhile, The White Lotus garnered the most TV nods with six, followed by Adolescence, with five nods.

This year, many celebrities embraced Old Hollywood glamor with their red carpet looks, including black ball gowns, short bob hairstyles with a front curl, and white dresses. The best looks of the night were simple and elegant, but also featured a modern twist.

From Selena Gomez to Amanda Seyfried to Ayo Edebiri, here were the best-dressed celebrities at the 2026 Golden Globes red carpet.
