BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — Fasten your seatbelts, fashion fans! With some of Hollywood's most fashion-forward stars up for awards this year, it's going to be an eventful season. And the Golden Globes gets it all started, with stars (and their stylists) marking their territory at one of Hollywood's splashiest events. Big this year: lots of sparkle and shine, and a return to old-school red carpet glamour. Also: long opera gloves.
Here are some of the looks catching attention Sunday at the Golden Globes:
Ariana Grande: From Glinda pink to Hepburn yellow
She didn't wear pink, the favored color of Glinda the Good. But ''Wicked'' star Grande evoked another Ozian color — yellow (of the yellow brick road, of course) in Givenchy haute couture. The gown was in pale silk with a hand-beaded bodice, a vintage 1966 gown from what the designer calls the Audrey Hepburn era of Givenchy. She wore a Swarovski choker and white opera gloves.
Mikey Madison: New movie star, new fashion star
Few red-carpet arrivals were more anticipated than that of Mikey Madison, the breakout ''Anora'' star who's been making waves in the fashion world, too, this season. Madison wore a shiny gold, strapless column gown from Bottega Veneta that emphasized her much-discussed fashion transformation into classic movie-star glamour.
Cate Blanchett: Glistening in gold
Actor Blanchett looked like an awards statue come to life in a glistening gold gown with a ruched top by Louis Vuitton — one that she also wore at the Cannes Film Festival. New gold stones were added to the gown, designed by Nicholas Ghesquière, to freshen the look.
