The Golden Globes are largely considered the red carpet style sweetspot — not as formal as the Oscars, not as wacky as the Grammys. This is the red carpet where celebs have more leeway to test the creative fashion waters (and get a little loopy since they’re served alcohol with the dinner).

This is where you’re most likely to see women in pants — a definite no-no at the more stuffy Oscars. It’s also a launch pad for little known designers (Jennifer Lopez made Zuhair Murad a household name when she wore his peek-a-boo lace design in 2013) and oftentimes our first look at the upcoming spring trends (yellow, exposed shoulders, cleavage and ruffles, to name a few).
