The old adage “dress to impress” was clearly top of mind when celebrities chose their 2026 Actor Awards red carpet looks. So far, we've seen fresh-off-the-runway Chanel gowns, designer feather boas, top hats, and twenty-year-old designer pulls—the biggest of fashion big guns. But when you’re attending an awards show where your peers handpick who takes home a trophy, phoning it in isn't an option.
Formerly known as the SAG Awards, the ceremony has been rebranded as the 32nd Annual Actor Awards Presented by SAG-AFTRA. It’s a mouthful, sure, but it helps emphasize that the event celebrates the hard work of the actors in the Actors Guild. Hosted by Kristen Bell (the Nobody Wants This star's third time emceeing the gig), tonight's ceremony features nominees like Rose Byrne, Emma Stone, Jenna Ortega, and Teyana Taylor.
The name-change isn’t the only new development. The 2026 Actor Awards red carpet also has a theme: reimagining Hollywood glamour from the ‘20s and ‘30s. The dress code comes as part of the annual film and TV awards show’s new collaboration with fashion magazine Elle. It’s a Met Gala-like move that, yes, adds another hoop for celebrity stylists to jump through. At the same time, it makes the arrivals all the more entertaining to watch.
Keep scrolling to see how the A-list attendees addressed the 2026 Actor Awards red carpet dress code. Stay tuned, here, too, as we'll be routinely updating this list throughout the night.
