I was so happy to see Lady Bird awarded so much during the Golden Globes – it’s a gem of a film, a perfect little coming-of-age movie which is perfectly and brilliantly acted. Saoirse Ronan picked up Best Actress in a Comedy, and the film picked up Best Comedy/Musical. Laurie Metcalf lost Best Supporting Actress to Allison Janney, but Metcalf is still great, let’s be real. Greta Gerwig – the writer/director – was snubbed for a Best Director nomination, and she lost in the Screenplay category. I hope people wise up in time for the Oscars, or else Natalie Portman is going to have to stand up there and say “and here are the all-male directors” again.
As for fashion – the women participated in the #WhyWeWearBlack thing. Saoirse wore Atelier Versace – a one-sleeved, futuristic look with some “pops” of what looked like silver. I think very highly of Saoirse’s beauty and fashion sense, so I still don’t know what I think of this 100%. Like, I think her hair was too white-blonde, but the whole look sort of worked, right? She went for a complete “futuristic” look, as if she was inspired by Blade Runner.
Greta Gerwig wore Oscar de la Renta and Laurie Metcalf wore Sachin and Babi. They were super-cute.

I thought she looked great.
Me too.
I almost love the dress. I think the silver shoulder was enough, it didn’t need the silver on the waist. And I’d have done away with the cuff, this dress doesn’t need accessories. But still, one of my favourites of the night.
It’s ridiculous that Lady Bird is winning Best Picture all over the place but Greta didn’t even get a nomination. I’m not saying she deserves to win (Del Toro or Guadagnino do), but she unquestionably deserves the nom.
Which is what I think Natalie Portman’s jab of “And here are the all male nominees” was about. 😉
Me too
I like it, I don’t love it. But yes, Saoirse’s dress and styling works. I love how Greta looks and I am going to lose my sht if she isn’t nominated for an Oscar for Best Director.
Saoirse is starting to morph into Diane Kruger and I don’t mean it in a bad way.
Saoirse is a baby Blanchett. That’s a compliment. Also, Timothee? Cute as a button, that one.
YES
his hair, OMG.
I gasped when I saw it and I usually loathe Versace. The gown was on message without being on trend. Even though the left arm was bare it still reminded me of epic fantasy novels where archer assassins wear shifts with one sleeve missing to better guide their shots – this look just screamed strength, unassailabke power and elegance to me.
yes usually i think these looks so weirdly disproportionate but the dress and the jewelry created an illusion of symmetry. it is perfectly tailored. she looks so pretty going to get her award.
Not something I would even consider trying on but Saoirse looked fantastic in it. She carried it very well and that’s a dress that could overwhelm some women.
Saoirse looked fantastic, but I think she did not need the silver bracelet. Her dress had enough silver. Loved it. With her hair up, she looked stunning to me.
I absolutely love her Saoirse’s gown, she looks amazing
Love the dress, I think it’s one of the most interesting looks of the evening. I do agree that the bracelet doesn’t add anything.
I like Saorise’s look, but I thought the cuff needed a little more something to it. I don’t like the design. It looks too much like an afterthought.
My nitpick is her styling: I don’t like her makeup. I like that it is muted, but it crosses over into dull.
Still, I think this style overall suits her. Severe lines compliment her delicate, ethereal looks by softening the edges and in return, they bring out the otherworldliness of her eyes.
Agree the cuff was overkill and I think a bolder pop of lipstick would have elevated her look. Nevertheless, she looked terrific.
I love, love, love the dress and her look. Love the purple stone earrings.
I really don’t think she was going for futuristic. That looks futuristic exactly zero. It’s also fug.
Greta’s necklace is amazing!
Yes, they all look lovely. The dresses are pretty. But that necklace is gorgeous!
