Carey! Greta! Ayo! Vogue Editors Share Their Favorite Awards Season Looks
After much tussling over Greta Lee on Slack, the Vogue editors have managed to condense an entire awards season’s worth of red-carpet looks down to standout moments from the Golden Globes to the Grammys, the Emmys to the Oscars. Which is your favorite? Thoughts on a postcard, please.

Rosamund Pike in her Philip Treacy apple-shaped mourning veil to shield her ski accident injury at the Golden Globes was an early awards season highlight for me! Channeling her Saltburn character to a tee!

I ll be thinking about America Ferrera s pink chainmail Versace gown for the foreseeable future. The color, the sparkle, the fit... it was perfect.

Lily Gladstone’s Oscars look will go down in fashion history. I loved that Gucci collaborated with the Indigenous quillwork artist Joe Big Mountain on her gown; So rarely do we see big luxury labels give a spotlight to smaller artisans, let alone on such a big scale. Plus, she looked fabulous.

The best look from the entire season didn’t come from a nominee or a marquee awards show. When Maddie Ziegler stepped on the red carpet at the SAG Awards, I was truly at a loss for words. The actor and dancer pulled a truly jaw-dropping vintage Alexander McQueen dress from Shrimpton Couture: the little sister of his iconic Oyster dress. From the spring 2003 “Irere” collection, this tattered chiffon dress made Ziegler look like a mermaid that had washed ashore. This just goes to show that the smaller awards shows can indeed pack a big punch.

Caroline Polachek in Olivier Theyskens at the Grammys
I think about this dress all the time. It s from Olivier Theyskens s fall 1998 collection, his first one in Paris. The pieces were constructed by Theyskens himself with what he had available, and he embroidered this anatomical heart and its veins himself. It s complex, romantic, a little goth, and perfectly emotive, which is also the way I d describe Caroline s music. Theyskens was looking at Florentine studies of anatomy for this collection, as reported by my colleague Laird Borelli-Persson on Vogue Runway. On the red carpet, Caroline described Theyskens as one of her favorite designers of all time, and I feel the same way.
