Last night’s Golden Globes red carpet was a dazzling homage to the allure of Old Hollywood as top celebrities embraced the vintage glamour of yesteryears.

The stars clearly drew inspiration from the iconic vixens of the 1940s, 50s, and 60s, as noted by celebrity stylist Rochelle White.

Feathers, glitter, and perfectly gelled curls graced Beverly Hills on Sunday, invoking memories of legendary figures such as Grace Kelly, Rita Hayworth, and Ava Gardner.

“There was a genuine tribute to cinematic glamour,” said the fashion expert. “I noticed a focus on sculpted waists, draped satin, classic Hollywood necklines, and elegant gloves, all celebrating the feminine form.”

“The visual storytelling truly captured the essence of classic Hollywood,” she added.

Rochelle added that the opulent red carpet turnout could signal a new fashion cycle – one ‘where clothes are allowed to be beautiful, dramatic and eye-catching again’.

‘Whether younger consumers or older demographics, anything referencing Marilyn Monroe or Elizabeth Taylor really taps into the relevance they have had all these years,’ she shared.

‘It brings back a sense of glamour that maybe was once lost.’

Here, the Daily Mail takes a look at the vintage looks channelled by the starlets of today… 

Amanda Seyfried

Amanda Seyfried, 40, took fans right back to the 1950s with her angelic ensemble from Versace as she attended the awards

Adding even more to the similarities was Amanda’s short blonde bob, which was styled in Old Hollywood waves – a look Grace Kelly was also known to be fond of

Amanda Seyfried, 40, took fans right back to the 1950s with her angelic ensemble from Versace as she attended the awards, being nominated for both her performances in The Testament of Ann Lee and Long Bright River.

Her shoulderless gown, which was adorned with Tiffany diamonds, appeared to take inspiration from actress Grace Kelly, in particular a ruched white off-the-shoulder frock of hers from 1954.

Adding even more to the similarities was Amanda’s short blonde bob, which was styled in Old Hollywood waves – a look Grace was also known to be fond of. 

Jennifer Lopez

Jennifer Lopez is fond of frocks that highlight her hourglass figure, and last night was no difference as she opted for a sheer vintage number from Jean-Louis Scherrer

The silhouette however harked back to a 1956 dress worn by Shirley Bassey. The Welsh singer pictured 

Jennifer Lopez is fond of frocks that highlight her hourglass figure, and last night was no difference as she opted for a sheer vintage number from Jean-Louis Scherrer.

The silhouette however harked back to a 1956 dress worn by Welsh singer Shirley Bassey. While it wasn’t sheer, it highlighted the star’s curves and added extra glitz with a fur hemline.

And much like Shirley, Jennifer pulled her hair up and back for the event, accentuating her look even more.

Kylie Jenner

Kylie Jenner dazzled in a metallic corset Ashi Studio gown and accessorised with more than 100 carats of custom Lorraine Schwartz glitz for the event last night, as she joined her date Timothee Chalamet

In 1967, sex symbol Jayne Mansfield went for a similar look in a satin white dress which featured similarly crossing strap designs across the neckline and décolletage

In 1967, sex symbol Jayne Mansfield went for a similar look in a satin white dress which featured similarly crossing strap designs across the neckline and décolletage. 

And much like Kylie, 28, she had a touch of glitz – with her shimmering clutch – to add sparkle. 

Parker Posey and Sophia Loren

White Lotus star Parkey Posey was the image of opulence in a golden Rodarte gown – but it was the silhouette that drew comparisons with Old Hollywood legend Sophia Loren

In 1958, Italian actress Sophia Loren wowed as she stepped out in a fitted bodice that fanned out into a flowing barrelled skirt

White Lotus star Parkey Posey was the image of opulence in a golden Rodarte gown – but it was the silhouette that drew comparisons with Old Hollywood legend Sophia Loren.

In 1958, the Italian actress wowed as she stepped out in a fitted bodice that fanned out into a flowing barrelled skirt.

And much like 57-year-old Parker, she accessorised with black evening gloves. 

Mila Kunis and Audrey Hepburn 

Mila Kunis, who recently starred in the latest Knives Out, was elegant in Carolina Herrera at the awards

The flirty retro silhouette was a dead ringer for Audrey Hepburn’s ensemble in the hit movie Sabrina – designed by Hubert de Givenchy

Mila Kunis, who recently starred in Wake Up Dead Mad: A Knives Out Mystery, was elegant in a Carolina Herrera dress.

The flirty retro silhouette was a dead ringer for Audrey Hepburn’s ensemble in the hit movie, Sabrina – designed by Hubert de Givenchy.

Much like 42-year-old Mila, Audrey’s look was striking and impactful thanks to its dramatic black and white colouring and delicate floral-inspired designs.

Julia Roberts

Julia Roberts is known for her striking red-carpet looks, and last night her simple but striking black gown with a plunging neckline oozed Old Hollywood opulence

It harked back to a look of Lauren Bacall’s, with the actress starring in a 1944 movie titled To Have and Have Not

Julia Roberts is known for her striking red-carpet looks, and last night her simple but striking black gown with a plunging neckline oozed Old Hollywood opulence.

It harked back to a look of Lauren Bacall’s, with the actress starring in a 1944 movie titled To Have and Have Not.

Both brought theatricality to their looks with dramatic plunging slits, and styled their fair curls to add contrast. 

Pamela Anderson and Katharine Hepburn 

Pamela Anderson owned the 80s and 90s with her looks, but last night proved she can look striking in any decade’s style

In a white dress from Ferragamo, the actress, 58, channelled leading lady Katharine Hepburn in 1940

Pamela Anderson owned the 80s and 90s with her looks, but last night proved she can look striking in any decade’s style. 

In a white dress from Ferragamo, the actress, 58, channelled leading lady Katharine Hepburn in 1940.

Both opted for fairly modest silhouettes which showed off the fabric and artistry that goes into creating such dresses.

Ana de Armas

Actress Ana de Armas sparked comparisons with Old Hollywood icon Ava Gardner in a sleek black Louis Vuitton dress with a slit at the side

The actress, 37, who lit up the red carpet in her sparkling frock, channelled a figure-hugging monochrome frock donned by Ava Gardner in 1952, with the Golden Age performer teaming it with fishnet tights

Actress Ana de Armas sparked comparisons with Old Hollywood icon Ava Gardner in a sleek black Louis Vuitton dress with a slit at the side.

The actress, 37, who lit up the red carpet in her sparkling frock channelled a figure-hugging monochrome frock donned by Ava in 1952, with the Golden Age performer teaming it with fishnet tights.

The two even kept their accessories similar – both wearing diamond necklaces, simple black heels and curling their dark hair. 

Jennifer Lawrence

Jennifer Lawrence turned heads – and raised eyebrows – at the 2026 Golden Globes in a daring ’naked dress’ look

While the Golden Age wasn’t quite as experimental, Lawrence’s look channelled a floral lace dress worn by Rita Hayworth in 1942, accentuated by a sheer halterneck bodice

Jennifer Lawrence turned heads – and raised eyebrows – at the 2026 Golden Globes in a daring ’naked dress’ look.

The 35-year-old actress stepped out in Los Angeles wearing a barely-there, sheer gown that quickly became the talk of the night.

Designed by Givenchy’s Sarah Burton, the see-through dress was embroidered with delicate pink, ivory and green flowers, leaving little to the imagination.

While the Golden Age wasn’t quite as experimental, her look channelled a floral lace dress worn by Rita Hayworth in 1942, accentuated by a sheer halterneck bodice.

It is understood to have been made by Irene Lentz, the head of costume at Columbia Pictures at the time.
