Golden Globes 2025: Most daring looks on the red carpet from Jennifer Coolidge to Cate Blanchett

The Golden Globes was full of stars ... and fashion faux pas.

While the night saw big wins for TV series Shogun and movie Emilia Pérez, some stars were not as successful when it came to their red-carpet looks. Bright blues, recycled dresses and all-white were some of the looks that didn’t quite land as stars walked across the red carpet at the 2025 Golden Globes in Los Angeles on Sunday evening.

“I’m sorry Elle Fanning but this dress is NOT it,” one social media fan wrote about the The Girl from Plainville star.

Fanning wasn’t the only celebrity who saw jeers for their wardrobe choices. These are the most daring looks from the 2025 Golden Globes:

Dwayne Johnson

While the 52-year-old’s playful attire complimented his kid-friendly role as the voice of “Maui” in Moana, Dwayne Johnson’s lilac outfit didn’t seem to fit the unspoken gold aesthetic at the 82nd annual awards ceremony.

The wrestler-turned-actor known as ‘The Rock’ looked to be dressed ready for a spring garden party rather than a glamorous Hollywood affair.

Jennifer Coolidge

Jennifer Coolidge’s kind-hearted, hilarious personality was unfortunately masked by her all-black gown at the Golden Globes. Rather than stepping out in a colorful, or even sparkly, dress, the performer was covered in a dark garment that dulled her bubbly personality.

Elle Fanning

Elle Fanning missed the mark on the 2025 Golden Globes red carpet in a billowing dress embellished with a cheetah-print neckline designed to resemble a 1953 haute couture design by Pierre Balmain.

The ornate gown presented a confusing contrast between its fancy ballgown bottom and the pointed V-cut animal print top blended through a thin belt — an additive that felt a bit like overkill.

Kathryn Hahn

Kathryn Hahn arrived outside the 2025 Golden Globes in a two-tone gown that was not well-liked online. The 51-year-old actor’s ensemble was made up of a black, off-the-shoulder long-sleeve belted on top of a yellow skirt.

X users weren’t too pleased with the “witchy” outfit, as many agreed it was one of their least favorites from the night.

“Kathryn Hahn STUNS in ugliest dress known to man,” one harsh critic wrote, while another shared an image of Hahn next to the caption: “My worst dressed. Some of these pain me.”

Andrew Scott

The 48-year-old Irish actor took too much of a risk and wore a bright blue Vivienne Westwood suit with a matching tie that looked like it was peeled from the walls of a baby’s nursery. One amused fan online poked fun at the ensemble.

“So he found his father’s suit from a Wedding in 1973,” user @HorseOneThms wrote on X.

Cate Blanchett

The 55-year-old actor arrived on the red carpet in a recycled yellow-gold, floor-length dress with crystals decorating the tops of her shoulders like a coat of armor.

Blanchett’s dress stood out because it was the exact Louis Vuitton gown she donned at the Cannes Film Festival in 2024.

Ali Wong

The 42-year-old comedian arrived at the event in a red, strapless gown by Balenciaga, paired with black opera gloves and matching shoes. The look also featured a satin, red bow in the middle.

Her dress turned heads because of the long ruffles that made her look like she was stuck in a bunch of seaweed.

Kerry Washington

The Scandal alum, 47, opted for a neon pink, one-shoulder dress with a long train. She paired the outfit with black opera gloves, matching heels, and sheer tights.

However, many fans on X were not fond of this outfit, with claims that the dress’s fabric didn’t appear to be the best quality.

“What happened to Kerry Washington? She looked awful. Looked like a cheap bulky fabric was wrapped around her, and Her shoes were two sizes too big! This great Actress deserves a better stylish!” one person wrote, while another tweeted: “Oh no, Kerry Washington. What is you doing?!”

Heidi Klum

The 51-year-old model posed outside The Beverly Hilton Hotel in a shimmering, floor-length gown by Maria Lucia Hohan with cutouts just below her chest and a high slit in the front.

While the delicate fabric gracefully swept around her, the bright green color was a gutsy choice amid the sea of gold around her.
