In the season of awards, this might just be the best dressed red carpet.
London is the city to be right now. Between London Fashion Week and the 77th British Academy Film Awards (BAFTAs), there’s plenty of style inspiration to go around. The latter event, in particular, is generating headlines as fashion-forward celebs parade into Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall to recognise the greatest films of the year — with a focus on British films, of course. As a result, it’s no surprise that celebrities like Emma Stone and Emily Blunt are in attendance tonight.
The British Academy Film Arts Awards red carpet is one of the most glamorous of the awards season, but that doesn’t mean the BAFTAs’ best-dressed celebs stayed safe. In reality, the 2024 BAFTAs featured some of the best red carpet fashions of the year.
With endless outfits to swoon over, some of the biggest names in cinema history descended on the red carpet at this year’s BAFTA Film Awards, which were hosted by David Tennant. Taylor Russell looked stunning in a dramatic Loewe, Florence Pugh donned a massive Harris Reed, and Aye Edebiri looked even more stunning in a custom-made Bottega Veneta.
This year’s group of nominees are no stranger to the awards show circuit, with several being lauded for their red-carpet fashion over the past few weeks. At the BAFTA Awards 2024 (which many consider an important precursor to the Academy Awards, which are scheduled for March 10), chic stars like Ayo Edebiri, Barry Keoghan, Bradley Cooper, Carey Mulligan, Cillian Murphy, Claire Foy, Colman Domingo, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, Dominic Sessa, Emily Blunt, Emma Stone, Greta Gerwig, Margot Robbie, Paul Giamatti, Paul Mescal, Robert Downey Jr., Rosamund Pike, Ryan Gosling, and Sandra Hüller proved that this year’s red carpet brimmed with all sorts of style.
As the BAFTA Awards unfolded, these fashion-forward celebrities set the bar high, affirming their status as style icons. From enchanting gowns to bold fashion statements, the red carpet was a spectacle of elegance and creativity. The 2024 BAFTA Awards will certainly be remembered as a night of exceptional fashion choices and unforgettable moments. See who made our list of the best-dressed stars at the 2023 BAFTA Awards below.
