Awards season isn’t just about trophies—it’s also about the looks. The red carpet is where stars bring their A-game, flexing fits that make the fashion girlies proud.
From the Golden Globes in January to the Oscars in March, these events are all about serving. Celebrities step out in bold designs, colors, and trends every year. With stylists working overtime and designers pulling out all the stops, the carpets stay lit (and the looks go viral).

When it comes to Black Hollywood, you already know we bring the heat. Our stars turn these ceremonies into cultural moments. Icons like Zendaya, Halle Berry, Kelly Rowland, and Cynthia Erivo who is up for several awards this season, consistently remind us why they’re legends on the carpet. They’ve mastered the art of making an entrance and owning their style.
Then there are the wild cards—the ones keeping everyone guessing. Ayo Edebiri has been switching it up since her glow-up on The Bear. From tailored suits to high-fashion looks, she keeps us guessing. And Colman Domingo? He doesn’t just show up; he shows out. His take on menswear is pure Black boy joy, turning every red carpet into a moment.
Let’s also not forget the celebrity couples. Awards season is the ultimate date night – and our favorites often arrive giving us all the #couplesgoals. Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade have a collective style that is unmatched. Gabrielle keeps it sexy and polished, while Dwyane plays with patterns and clean lines.
Meagan Good and Jonathan Majors are another pair giving us coordinated slayage. They don’t just arrive on the carpet—the ridiculously hot couple makes headlines.
