Golden Globes Fashion: Ariana Grande Eschews Glinda Pink for Pale Yellow (Brick Road) Silk

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.

Nicole Kidman: Sparkling in Silver

Where Blanchett glistened in gold, Kidman sparkled in silver, in a daring, one-shoulder backless Balenciaga gown. The "Babygirl" star polished off the look with a chic, voluminous half-ponytail.

Ali Wong: Fiery in Red

Actor-comedian Wong wasn't easy to miss on the carpet: She wore a cascading gown of bright fire-engine red tulle. The grand Balenciaga number was accessorized with a satin belt and glamorous black spandex opera gloves, almost up to the shoulder.

Zoë Kravitz: Old-school Glamour, a Pink Bow

The "Don't Blink Twice" director went traditional with a black velvet Saint Laurent gown featuring a plunging neckline, with a sweet pastel pink silk bow around her waist. She was a favorite of Kevin Huynh, InStyle's fashion director, who said he loved how she "channeled old-school Hollywood glamour."

Timothée Chalamet: No Wool Beanie Here

Globes host Nikki Glaser zeroed right in on Chalamet, one of the hottest stars in Hollywood, in her monologue, telling him: "You have the most gorgeous eyelashes on your upper lip." As for the clothes on his body, Chalamet went more traditional than other recent trips to the carpet, wearing a sleek Tom Ford black suit with embellished jacket, a white shirt and a blue scarf tossed around his neck (or was it a tie?). No wool beanie like in the Dylan-inspired look he wore to the New York premiere of his film, "A Complete Unknown."

Ayo Edebiri: Calling Julia Roberts

Edebiri has been a bright spot of many a recent red carpet. This time, she went in an unusual direction: Menswear. Working with designer Jonathan Anderson at the label Loewe, Edebrii decided to channel Julia Roberts' memorable Golden Globe attire at the 1990 show – a big, boxy gray suit. Edebiri added a brilliant gold leaf necklace to the mix, resembling a long necktie.

Colman Domingo: Still Slaying on the Carpet

One surefire red-carpet star is "Sing Sing" actor Colman Domingo, who consistently wows with his appearances. These Globes were no exception. His Valentino ensemble included a voluminous, ever-stylish silk bow tie in black and white, and a polka dot shirt.

Cynthia Erivo: Five-hour Nails

The "Wicked" actor continued her season-long fashion show in a black embellished dress by Louis Vuitton, choosing not to wear green this time. But it was her remarkably detailed nail art, a hallmark of Erivo's style, that got a lot of attention, too, including her admission on E! News that it had taken her manicurist five hours to create the day's artwork.

Kerry Washington: Opera Gloves Are a Thing

Those opera gloves are really a thing this year: Also wearing them was actor Washington, who sported a neon pink silk taffeta gown, also from Balenciaga, with a train – the combo providing "a bit of edgy glamour," Huynh said.

Angelina Jolie: Mom and Daughter, Coordinated

Jolie was definitely part of the evening's glamour contingent, wearing a glistening Alexander McQueen gown of intertwining metallic colors in a branchlike pattern. Her daughter, Zahara, dressed to coordinate with mom, with a similar pattern on her long white dress. Huynh said it was one of his favorite looks, because while Jolie is often known to wear simple, sleek gowns, "this dazzling, heavily embellished McQueen look made her every bit the silver screen siren."

Tyler James Williams: Schooling the Masses in Fashion

Williams, of "Abbott Elementary," is never safe or boring on the carpet. On Sunday he sported a gray pinstripe suit with cropped, double-breasted jacket with dramatic shoulder pads and a bare chest peeking out, over loose trousers.

Quinta Brunson: Sequins to Spare

WIlliams' colleague, "Abbott Elementary" creator and star Quinta Bronson, looked sleek in a heavily embellished custom Roberto Cavalli gown. Huynh called the color, chocolate brown, "the color of the season."

Glen Powell: A (fashion) Hitman in Armani

Powell eschewed the tie and instead channeled casual glamour in an open-necked brown shirt and black velvet jacket, by Giorgio Armani. Looks like Powell's "are proving that best-dressed lists aren't just for actresses," Huynh said.

The Lookalikes: Dressing Up for the Night

It's been the year of celeb lookalike contests. Max Braunstein won a Powell lookalike contest. Miles Mitchell won a Chalamet event. And so they both ended up at the Globes. Their key fashion accessory: Signs that read "I won a lookalike contest and now I'm at the Golden Globes."
