The 2026 Actor Awards best-dressed list promised a shake-up before the night even started. This year, nominees including Teyana Taylor, Jenna Ortega, and Keri Russell had a red carpet fashion assignment: Follow the ceremony's first-ever dress code.
"Reimagining Hollywood Glamour from the '20s and '30s" was the directive. And no, it didn't end up requiring a sea of flapper-inspired slips and fringe to make the 2026 Actor Awards best-dressed list. The Fashion Month runways—and connections to major houses like Chanel, Dior, and Prada—allowed several guests to meet the requirements while staying true to their personal style. Rose Byrne and stylist Kate Young sourced an angelic look from Chanel's latest Metiers d'Art collection, while Chase Infiniti worked her ongoing Louis Vuitton collaboration to source a shimmering gold gown and matching beaded cap.
