Just as an off-Broadway play can be more captivating than a bigger production, or that easy-to-miss, hole-in-the-wall restaurant is where you had the best meal of your life, the smaller red carpets are where you'll typically find fashion with a capital F. The 14th Governors Awards was one of those instances. The ceremony, a sort of pre-cursor to The Oscars, took place last night in Los Angeles with quite a stunning presentation of sartorial moments. From Julianne Moore in a mirrorball cape dress by Valentino to Florence Pugh in custom, crystal-embellished Rodarte, the best red carpet looks at the 2024 Governors Awards were a feast for the eyes.
Pugh's ensemble was particularly note-worth, as it wasn't Valentino (the actress is an ambassador for the brand), nor was it a sheer (the Oppenheimer star adores a naked dress—as do we!). Other standout red carpet looks include Olivia Rodrigo in a vintage Saint Laurent little black dress and Past Live's Greta Lee in a fire engine red, sculptural Bottega Veneta gown (if you're someone who keeps an eye out for fashion girlies on the come-up, Lee is absolutely one to watch). One of the more understated yet undeniably impactful moments was Golden Globe-winning Ayo Edibiri in a strapless Proenza Schouler dress made of butter-yellow leather.
Ahead, discover our round-up of our favorite red carpet looks from the 2024 Governors Awards.
