Jennifer Lopez covered up in style and Jason Sudekis wore sneakers on the red carpet. But those weren’t the only highlights from the fashion spectacle that was the 73rd Annual Golden Globes Awards ceremony held at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California, on Sunday night. While white was the most popular colour of the night, sapphire blue came a close second and plunging necklines kept eyes firmly fixed on perfect decolletes, it was old-world Hollywood glamour that ruled the roost. From Lady Gaga’s Monroe-esque turn in a black Atelier Versace gown to Cate Blanchett in an ombre fringed Givenchy Haute Couture number and a faux bob that only rivalled Amber Heard’s stylish hair-do, the vintage vibe was hard to ignore. Capes and sheer cover-ups were quite the talking point, as was Lopez’s sunshine yellow Giambattista Valli Haute Couture caped gown, which made for quite a change from the singer’s usual dare-to-bare numbers. Among the young style stars who created an impact on the awards season’s very first red carpet roll-out were Alicia Vikander in a Louis Vuitton apron-style dress, Lily James of Downton Abbey, who wore a diaphanous Marchesa gown, and Saoirse Ronan dressed in Yves Saint Laurent Couture by Hedi Slimane. With the awards season starting off on a promising sartorial note, we can’t wait to see what Hollywood’s leading ladies and their style entourages have in store for us in the weeks to come.
