Last year’s SAG-AFTRA strike meant that the 2023 Governors Awards went amiss. This year, the stars are back once again at the Ray Dolby Ballroom in Los Angeles to make up for lost time.

The gala is an annual event held by the Academy of Motion Arts and Pictures to honour achievements in Hollywood and offers awards alloted by the Academy board of governors. And fresh off the back of the 81st Goldest Globes, A-list guests turned up to the awards in their best looks.

With guests including Emma Stone in bedazzled Fendi Haute Couture, Greta Lee in vivid red Bottega Veneta, Margot Robbie in sensual Celine and Penélope Cruz in a Chanel bridal look, the dress code confirmed that 2024 is going to be a year of cutting-edge red carpet fashion.

Ahead, we look at the best looks from the evening.
