Critics’ Choice Awards 2026: 20 Best Red Carpet Looks

2026 opens in full glamour mode with the 31st Critics’ Choice Awards. Held at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica and hosted by Chelsea Handler, the evening brought Hollywood’s brightest to the red carpet, each making a statement in style.

Mia Goth glided in a silk Dior gown, radiating understated sophistication, while Ariana Grande opted for a blush-toned off-the-shoulder satin dress by Alberta Ferretti. Elle Fanning embraced old-school gold glamour in Ralph Lauren, and Sheryl Lee Ralph stunned in a burgundy halter-style Tony Ward creation.

Louis Vuitton dominated the evening, dressing Erin Doherty in a mint green duchess gown, Michael B. Jordan in a sharp burgundy double-breasted suit, and Chase Infiniti in a pastel yellow two-piece. 

Bottega Veneta also made a strong showing: Jacob Elordi showed off a custom double-breasted suit, Owen Cooper layered a leather jacket over wool trousers, and Britt Lower shone in Look 69 from the Summer 2026 show, a masterful blend of silk-viscose and cotton-viscose textures that captured the collection’s modern elegance.
