Celebrities at the 2026 AFI Awards
Here is a look at who wore what on the 2026 AFI Awards red carpet from Friday
A Quiet Detour
Emma Stone had a rare day off from Louis Vuitton, opting for a pleated custom Calvin Klein Collection top styled with a coordinating belt. The simplicity is what makes this work. It feels easy, familiar, and aligned with her personal style rather than a contractual obligation.
Styled by Petra Flannery.
Dress Over Palette
Britt Lower wore Lanvin Pre-Fall 2026 dress, As you know, brown and black isn’t my go-to, but the dress holds up thanks to its clean silhouette.
Styled by Rose Forde.
Nothing Connecting
If you are anything like me, your eye went straight to the bracelets on Emilia Jones. At first glance, they appeared connected to the belt of her Elie Saab Spring 2026 look, which created visual confusion. Unfortunately, none of the elements feel cohesive enough to pull this together.
Styled by Aimée Croysdill.
A Subtle Shift
Jacob Elordi wore another custom Bottega Veneta suit, though this one should not be confused with his Palm Springs Awards look. The tone leans greener, and the overall effect feels lighter. Also worth noting, I’m missing the moustache already.
Styled by Wendi Ferreira and Nicole DeJulio.
Leather, Done Simply
Jessie Buckley wore a typically understated black leather Khaite dress styled with Khaite Jett pumps and Ana Khouri jewellery. Clean lines and minimal: that’s what we can expect throughout awards season from the Irish actress. But I am hoping she pulls a Carey Mulligan on us.
Styled by Danielle Goldberg.
Consistency Still Wins
Keri Russell once again proves the value of a well cut Lanvin suit. The addition of red accessories was a twist I never expected.
Styled by Frank Fleming.
Flat Result
Mia Goth wore a Calvin Klein Collection Fall 2025 off the shoulder dress, but the overall result feels underwhelming. Stronger styling choices might have brought more interest to the look.
Styled by Jamie Mizrahi.
Consistent Formula
Michael B Jordan wore Zegna, continuing a run of sleek, tailored looks this season. The structure is strong and familiar, reinforcing a menswear lane that clearly works for him. I can’t say I am a fan of those glasses.
Styled by Jason Bolden.
Length Issues
This Elie Saab dress doesn’t work on Rhea Seehorn due to its length. The proportions do her no favours.
Styled by Jessica Paster.
One to Watch
Tramell Tillman continues to build one of the more unpredictable menswear runs this awards season. This Dries van Noten suit shows his confidence in tailoring choices that go against the grain.
Styled by Chaise M. Dennis.
