The Golden Globes kicked off the 2026 awards season Sunday, complete with dazzlingly dressed celebrities – and others who missed the mark.

Nikki Glaser returned to host the ceremony, held at the Beverly Hilton hotel in Beverly Hills, after making history last year as the first woman to run the Globes stage solo.

From Selena Gomez to Timothée Chalamet, some of Hollywood’s biggest names walked the red carpet. And while most turned heads for the right reasons, others captured attention for being more risqué.

From see-through gowns to odd sequin details to over-the-top features, some celebrities made bold choices, garnering strong opinions.

Here are some of the most daring looks from the 2026 Golden Globes:
