unforgettable fashion moments

Making up for more than a year of lost looks, 2021 resurrected
the red carpet just enough to quench our sartorial thirst. Starved
for beauty throughout 2020, this year saw the resurgence of
in-person gatherings, causing our
favorite celebs and tastemakers to take full advantage. Opting
for show-stopping colors and silhouettes, A-listers took to the red
carpet in overtly opulent designs and surrealist styles. From the
sheer naked dresses of Dakota Johnson and Megan Fox to the
completely shrouded
Kim Kardashian appearance in Balenciaga, this year saw a wide
spectrum of style statements. With film premieres, the Cannes and
Venice Film Festivals, the Met Gala, and more events restored, so
too was our supply of mesmerizing red carpet ensembles.
As we continue on in our style stargazing, GRAZIA
looks back on a year filled with the most indelible fashion moments
to grace the red carpet.
