Last night, the first major event to kick off the award season, the 2014 Golden Globes took place at The Beverly Hilton Hotel in California, USA – and the stars were out in full fashion-force for the event.
Top fashionistas and first timers like Kenyan actress Lupita Nyong’o, Nigerian actor, Chiwetel Ejifor and Hollywood stars Kerry Washington, Zoe Saldana, Leonardo DiCaprio and Usher, to name a few, were definitely some of the best dressed at the ceremony.
Here’s a round up of our favourite looks from the carpet;
Usher looks dapper in this suave suit. We love the unpredictable choice of colour.
Amy Adams in tomato red Valentino – definitely a red carpet hit, but rocking two shades of red is a fashion ‘yes’ for us anytime.
Amber Heard, seen here in Versace. The thigh high slit, the peek-a-boo cut at the back… #Love.
Here’s the gorgeous Zoe Saldana in Prabal Gurung. Choosing a mid-length for an award as top notch as the Golden Globes? Hot, risky and we love that.
Cate Blanchet in also in Valentino – a dress that looked to be made for conservative Cate.
Taylor Swift arrived in grand style with her Carolina Herrera dress and signature red lips, which worked a treat to contrast the pink on her body. #WeLike
Lupita Nyong’o stopped hearts in Ralph Lauren. So nice to see the star in a long dress and an off-shoulder cape that really accentuates her neck. Nice.
Sofia Vegara in Zac Posen. It felt like the queen had arrived… but wearing black! Serious colour for a serous event. The chunky neck piece she wore crowns the look for her.
Helen Miren looked absolutely gorgeous in this dress. Age appropriate, yes, but yet so appealing…
Lastly, here’s Kate Beckingsale in Zuhair Muraid. She worked her curves while keeping the look fresh with just an earring and a simple purse. Love it.
