40 Of The Most Outrageous Outfits Ever Worn At The Golden Globes
Actors and designers all love an award show red carpet, don’t they? After all, it’s a chance to show off their finest outfits knowing they’re being seen and gawped at by millions of people. And at the Golden Globes – an event generally considered more casual than the Academy Awards – the fashion often gets fantastically weird. So, let’s run down some of the best “Are they really wearing that?” moments…
40. Cynthia Garrett – 2002
Don’t have a gown handy for the Golden Globes? Wrap yourself in a giant flag instead! To be fair though, that’s not quite what Cynthia Garrett actually did at the ceremony in 2002. Her Stars and Stripes dress was form-fitting and she actually looked pretty good in it. Still, would’ve been more appropriate for the Fourth of July.
39. Lady Gaga – 2019
Of course Lady Gaga would wear something OTT to the Golden Globes! In 2019 when she was nominated for A Star Is Born, the singer wore a blue Valentino dress with a colossal train. Many thought it was tribute to Judy Garland, who wore a similar dress in the original A Star Is Born. Mind you, the latter didn’t dye her hair blue to match like Gaga did.
38. Alan Cumming – 2015
Men tend not to push the envelope on the red carpet as often as women do, but Alan Cumming is one of the major exceptions there. He arrived at the 2015 Golden Globes in a beige-colored Calvin Klein suit matched with the curious and much more casual choice of Louboutin high-tops. Was he planning to play sports afterwards?
37. Sarah Michelle Gellar – 2012
You either loved or hated Sarah Michelle Gellar’s dress at the 2012 Globes. She wore a tie-dye-style Monique Lhuiller number which raised a couple of eyebrows. But Gellar proudly said on the red carpet that her then-two-year-old daughter had picked out the dress so she’d agreed straight away. That kid might well have a career in fashion ahead of her!
