Now that the nominees for the 2020 Golden Globe Awards have been announced, we can’t stop fantasizing about what they’ll wear on the red carpet come January 5. And while some stars are bound to stick with their go-to designers (Michelle Williams will probably dazzle in Louis Vuitton, while Kirsten Dunst will be dressed up in Rodarte), we can still dream. From looks fit for royalty to next-level polka dots and even a true work of art, the pieces on our wishlist are designed to make a statement and earn spots on practically everyone’s best dressed list.
Check out the slideshow above to see which recent runway looks we picked for some of Hollywood’s biggest stars. And don’t forget to tune in to theFashionSpot for our live red carpet coverage of the 2020 Golden Globe Awards.
What We Wish the 2020 Golden Globe Nominees Would Wear on the Red Carpet
Cate Blanchett
Let’s face it: Cate Blanchett can pull off anything. So why not aim high with this artsy Moschino item? The colorful Spring 2020 gown with strong shoulders is truly epic and deserves a turn on the red carpet.
Nicole Kidman
We’re just dying for someone to wear this vibrant Roberto Cavalli Fall 2019 dress during award season and we think Nicole Kidman would work the hell out of this stunner. The boots can go, but the earrings and matching necklace make the look.
Jennifer Lopez
We’re hoping Jennifer Lopez takes a break from Versace for the ceremony. This embellished Alberta Ferretti Fall 2019 black gown still brings the drama thanks to that ruffle-accented sleeve.
Cynthia Erivo
The neon hue of this Valentino Spring 2020 dress guarantees it will stand out on the red carpet. And Cynthia Erivo has the poise needed to pull it off.
Margot Robbie
At the Golden Globes, it’s go big or go home. And this ethereal polka dot Carolina Herrera Spring 2020 gown fits the bill. Margot Robbie always turns heads, but she would stop everyone in their tracks with this grand gown.
Saoirse Ronan
Saoirse Ronan has great fashion sense and we’d love to see her rock this billowy, feather-accented sky blue gown from the Givenchy Fall 2019 Haute Couture collection. It’s majestic enough for the Globes and those flashy dangling earrings are the only accessory she’d need.
Olivia Colman
This Armani Privé Fall 2019 ensemble is fit for a queen.
Charlize Theron
There’s no denying that Charlize Theron looks amazing in sparkling, slinky dresses. But we think this bombshell-worthy Elie Saab Fall 2019 Haute Couture gown and matching choker are calling her name.
Jennifer Aniston
The former Friends star loves a good black dress. But this Elie Saab Spring 2020 pick ups the ante with its intricate design and leg reveal.
Scarlett Johansson
This bright blue dress from Valentino’s Fall 2019 Haute Couture collection is just the right side of sheer. And we're all for seeing Scarlett Johansson sport a dress with a fuller skirt.
Phoebe Waller-Bridge
With a Vogue cover under her belt, you can bet big designers will be clamoring to dress Phoebe Waller-Bridge. We think she would really shine in this heavily embellished Armani Privé Fall 2019 dress.
Beanie Feldstein
Decked out in this Brock Collection Fall 2019 strapless ballgown, Beanie Feldstein would give the Golden Globe statuette a run for its money.
Michelle Williams
A tried-and-true Louis Vuitton devotee, it’s high time Michelle Williams stepped out in another designer. Enter this graphic Carolina Herrera Spring 2020 option that’s a total (and welcome) departure from all those LV gowns.
Renée Zellweger
There’s nothing basic about this black dress from Alexandre Vauthier’s Fall 2019 Haute Couture offering. We just hope Renée Zellweger keeps the complementary sheer cape.
Reese Witherspoon
Simone Rocha’s collections deserve a wider audience and a red carpet appearance or two. Reese Witherspoon wearing this Fall 2019 metallic masterpiece would give the designer all the praise she can handle.
Helena Bonham Carter
This layered black and white Givenchy Fall 2019 Haute Couture gown reads both goth and glamorous, just like Helena Bonham Carter. The pearl accent hanging off the black belt is everything.
Kirsten Dunst
Kirsten Dunst is all about Rodarte, but we’re asking her to switch gears — slightly. Carolina Herrera’s Spring 2020 off-the-shoulder watercolor floral gown has similar ethereal vibes, but in a more streamlined silhouette.
Jodie Comer
Even though the Globes take place in winter, Jodie Comer could really bring a touch of summer to the red carpet in this Oscar de la Renta Spring 2020 sunset ombre dress.
Rachel Brosnahan
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel star would make a statement in this colorful Erdem Spring 2020 dress. Minus the black accessories.
Awkwafina
Awkwafina will look like a golden goddess in this shimmery pleated gown from Oscar de la Renta’s dreamy Spring 2020 collection.
Joey King
We’re all for shorter hemlines at award shows. Joey King is the perfect actress to make this purple Valentino Spring 2020 feathered frock end up on all of the best dressed lists.
