The Trending Color That Won the 2023 Golden Globes Red Carpet

Hollywood’s most-watched celebs gathered on Jan. 10 at the 2023 Golden Globes Awards, and some swapped viral Barbiecore pink for something much more regal.

Purple, in a variety of shades, was the trending color on the Golden Globes red carpet. Sheryl Lee Ralph opted for a floor-hitting embellished gown by Aliétte (and rocked matching colored eye shadow for the finishing touch) in a vibrant jewel tone. Niecy Nash appeared in a rhinestone-studded Dolce & Gabbana ensemble, complete with a billowing cape, in a rich eggplant. Similarly, Selena Gomez‘s velvet Valentino number was washed in a deep, almost black ultraviolet, with lighter balloon sleeves.
