7 Extraordinary Golden Globes Dresses Wild Enough to Dream About

“OMG, did you see her Golden Globes dress last night?” – the words repeated by the coffee machine in the office tomorrow or, better yet, your group chat during the commute to work. While we truly believe every outfit came with a heavy dose of glamour for the evening’s award show, there were seven outfits that stunned, all for different reasons. Billy Porter worked with designer Alex Vinash on a custom creation that had everyone oohing and aahing over his white swan-esque feathers. Meanwhile, Gwyneth Paltrow arrived baring her lingerie completely in a totally sheer Fendi dress. Even more interesting was her accessorizing tactic – the actress let diamonds peek out from underneath her transparent neckline instead of layering her jewels on top. Kerry Washington took a walk on the wild side in a sexy Altuzarra look, complete with the thickest body chain we’ve ever seen (just imagine wearing a bikini with that)! Ahead, you’ll find the dresses that are going to go down in history and definitely make our list of the most memorable, most bold, and most risky ensembles to date.
