Ah, the Golden Globes: a night of glitz, glamour, and… fashion misfires. As regular people, we are no experts, but some of these looks had us scratching our heads. Here are our top 10 picks for the worst-dressed celebs at this year’s event:
1. Ariana Grande in Vintage Givenchy
Sometimes vintage is chic; sometimes it’s an attic raid gone wrong. Ariana’s dress looks like something my grandma stashed at the back of her closet after her high school prom. Sure, it’s “vintage,” but there’s a fine line between classic and cringe.
2. Ali Wong in Balenciaga
Ali Wong’s dress screamed badly wrapped Christmas present. It was the complete opposite of elegance. The only thing missing was a bow on her head, and we could’ve called it a day.
3. Cynthia Erivo in Louis Vuitton
Cynthia usually brings it, but this dress just… didn’t. The odd shape and unflattering cut left me wondering if it was part of an experimental art exhibit. A+ for taking a risk, but sadly, it didn’t pay off.
4. Melissa McCarthy in Christian Siriano
Melissa is always a delight, but this dress with its massive cape took extra to a whole new level. It dominated the carpet, literally. Word on the street is it took her 15 minutes just to get into the car.
5. Elle Fanning in Balmain
Ball gowns might be making a comeback, but Elle’s poofy, animal-print concoction was a bit much. It felt more costume party than red carpet. Who said poofy leopard vibes were the move this season?
6. Kerry Washington in Balenciaga
Balenciaga strikes again! Kerry’s gloves and shoes were a win, but the dress? A chaotic mess. It’s like they forgot to finish designing it and just said, “Eh, send it out!”
7. Ayo Edibiri in Loewe
Feathers, a visible logo, and a lack of red carpet flair—this look missed the mark. Logos have no place on a glamorous evening like this. It felt more mall run than Hollywood event.
8. Karla Sofia Gascón in Saint Laurent
There’s nothing inherently wrong with Karla’s dress, but nothing screams right either. It was unremarkable, the colors felt off for winter, and overall, it didn’t make a red-carpet-worthy statement.
9. Andrew Scott in Vivienne Westwood
Andrew Scott, aka the “Hot Priest,” served us Tiffany & Co. security guard realness. It’ll haunt him when he looks back at photos in 20 years.
10. Cate Blanchett in Louis Vuitton
Cate’s dress had potential—the color and material were gorgeous—but the top half ruined it. Cate has a stunning figure, but this design hid it all, making the overall look feel underwhelming.
