Hollywood’s finest stepped onto the red carpet at the 2025 Critics Choice Awards, bringing a dazzling display of fashion to one of awards season’s most exciting nights. Held at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica on February 7, the star-studded event honored the best in film and television, with top contenders vying for gold as the industry inches closer to the Oscars. Host Chelsea Handler kept the crowd entertained with her signature wit, setting the tone for an evening of celebration, standout speeches, and, of course, jaw-dropping style moments.
This year’s red carpet was a true testament to fashion’s power to captivate. Statement couture reigned supreme, with ethereal gowns, daring silhouettes, and modern takes on classic Hollywood glamour stealing the show. Ariana Grande made a grand entrance in an intricately embroidered Dior Couture gown that felt straight out of a fairytale, complete with delicate floral appliqués and dramatic fringe details. Meanwhile, Demi Moore exuded confidence in a bold Schiaparelli creation featuring an avant-garde corset bodice, proving that high fashion and risk-taking go hand in hand.
Cynthia Erivo stunned in a leather-textured Armani Privé number, cinched at the waist with intricate floral embellishments, adding a touch of romanticism to her structured look. Menswear also had its moment, with tailored elegance taking center stage. Nicole Kidman swapped a traditional gown for a sharp Saint Laurent suit and tie, serving sleek sophistication with an androgynous edge.
With awards season in full swing, the 30th Annual Critics Choice Awards once again proved to be a defining moment for both entertainment and fashion. As Hollywood’s biggest names continue to push boundaries on the red carpet, one thing is certain — the 2025 season is shaping up to be one of the most exciting yet.
