And that features on the purple carpet. On the 82nd annual Golden Globes, the celebs are exhibiting up and exhibiting out. Whereas the 2024 Golden Globes carpet was awash with color and celebs dressing for pleasure, the 2025 carpet was slightly extra subdued in tone, with celebs like Ashley Graham, Lilly Singh, and A Full Unknown’s Monica Barbaro strolling the carpet in stark blacks, midnight blues and shades of gray (plus some pops of monochromatic gold and purple seems from actresses Mindy Kaling, Cate Blanchett, Ali Wong, and Maren Morris). Perhaps it’s an indicator that we will anticipate a extra critical tone on the carpet for the remainder of awards season — or only a reminder that nothing can prime an LBD.
