On Friday, Gwyneth Paltrow and Kate Hudson turned heads at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, making a stylish entrance on the red carpet in coordinating blush-pink ensembles, walking hand in hand.

Hudson, celebrated as the festival’s Artist of the Year for her Oscar-nominated work in “Song Sung Blue,” dazzled in a stunning gown adorned with pearl accents and bronze beading, exuding an air of confidence.

Paltrow complemented her close friend’s sophisticated style with a chic sheer, sleeveless pink blouse paired over a matching tube top, offering a glimpse of her midriff. Her ensemble was completed with a matching mini-skirt that featured an eye-catching dramatic train.

The duo accessorized their outfits with dazzling diamond drop earrings. Hudson embraced her signature beachy waves, while Paltrow’s sleek ponytail added a touch of modern flair to her look.

Hudson received her award for portraying Claire Sardina in the musical drama, a compelling narrative about a Wisconsin couple who led the Neil Diamond tribute band “Lightning & Thunder.”

The honor comes ahead of the Academy Awards in March, where Hudson will vie for an Oscar in the Best Actress category 25 years after nabbing a nomination for her role in “Almost Famous.”
