The Golden Globes red carpet in 2026 felt less like a fashion parade and more like a social media storm. Within minutes of the first arrivals, photos were everywhere — on X, Instagram, and fan pages — and some outfits were already being called “iconic.”

While dozens of stars stepped out in designer wear, only a handful truly broke through the noise. These ten looks were the ones people kept posting, zooming into, and arguing about online.
Timothée Chalamet walked in already riding the high of his Marty Supreme win, and his outfit made sure nobody forgot it. The slightly retro, sharply tailored suit felt very “Timothée” — not loud, but impossible to ignore. Fans loved how relaxed yet confident he looked.
Jessie Buckley went in the opposite direction. Her dark lace gown had a gothic, dramatic edge that perfectly matched the mood of Hamnet. It wasn’t a safe red-carpet choice, but that’s exactly why people noticed it.

Rose Byrne surprised everyone with a soft sage-green gown that looked almost glowing under the lights. Fashion writers on X were quick to call it the best look of the night, and judging by how fast the photos spread, most fans agreed.
Wagner Moura kept things classic in a black tuxedo, but the emotion on his face made the pictures special. His historic Best Actor win turned every photo into something people wanted to save and share.
Teyana Taylor’s gold outfit was anything but subtle. The metallic, sculpted design made her look more like a walking art piece than a typical awards-show guest, and that boldness paid off online.
Host Nikki Glaser had one of the busiest wardrobes of the night. Her opening midnight-blue sequined gown became a favorite, especially as she kept changing looks between segments.
One of the most viral images wasn’t a single person at all. It was the Adolescence cast celebrating together after their big wins. The raw emotion, hugs, and tears made it feel real — and fans loved that.
Helen Mirren, receiving the Cecil B. DeMille Award, looked every bit the legend she is. Her velvet gown had a timeless, powerful feel that stood out without trying too hard.
Seth Rogen ditched the usual black tux for a pastel-colored suit, and it worked. It felt relaxed, fun, and very much in line with his personality, which made it a hit with fans.
Rhea Seehorn also skipped the gown route. Her clean white power suit was stylish, confident, and different — exactly what made it one of the most liked looks of the night.
The Golden Globes 2026 red carpet wasn’t about playing it safe. It was about standing out, and these ten looks did exactly that.
