The new year might have just begun, but it’s already time for awards season, and we’re kicking things off with the Golden Globes 2025 red carpet. With the most prestigious names in film and television in attendance, the red carpet is sure to be an event in itself, especially because so many of them double as fashion and beauty mavens.
Nominated for Best Actress for her role in Challengers and part of the Dune: Part 2 cast, Zendaya has proved over the past year that she’s always one to watch for on the red carpet (if her Met Gala appearances hadn’t already sold you). For both films, she had very thematic press runs — think tenniscore dresses and futuristic full-body armor — with the help of longtime stylist Law Roach.
Both nominated for their roles in Wicked, Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo aren’t ones to shy away from an on-theme red carpet moment either. However, they might just be better known for their glam moments. Grande, who founded her own beauty brand r.e.m., has a signature style but isn’t afraid to go all in on the hottest makeup trends like her fairycore looks for example. Erivo’s forte is detailed, dazzling manicures, even prompting O.P.I. to make her an ambassador.
Selena Gomez, recognized for Emilia Pérez and Only Murders in the Building, is also glam-forward on the runway. The Rare Beauty founder doesn’t miss the opportunity to show it off. She similarly spares no flair in the wardrobe department, even if she has to make an errand run on her way to a red carpet.
Expectations are high with a star-studded guest list, but these celebs did indeed deliver. Below, editors pick their favorite looks from the Golden Globes 2025 red carpet.
