Kristen Bell stepped onto the red carpet at the Golden Globe Awards 2026 in Los Angeles wearing a colorful, asymmetric gown by the late Giorgio Armani, marking one of the evening’s most distinctive fashion appearances.
The custom look featured a striking bodice with a diagonal neckline and a single spaghetti strap, creating an off-balance yet refined silhouette. The upper portion transitioned into a long black skirt finished with an opulent sheen, adding contrast and depth to the design while maintaining a sense of understated elegance. The gown reflected Armani’s signature balance of structure, restraint and quiet glamour.
Bell was accompanied by her husband, Dax Shepard, who opted for a classic suit and tie, keeping his look timeless and complementary to Bell’s statement ensemble.
The outfit was styled by Nicole Chavez, Bell’s longtime collaborator, who has worked with the actress across numerous red-carpet appearances and fashion campaigns. The styling emphasized clean lines and minimal accessories, allowing the architectural details and fabric of the gown to remain the focal point.
Bell attended the ceremony as a nominee for Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Television Series — Musical or Comedy for her role in the Nobody Wants This. The nomination marked her third nod in the category, following her recognition for “The Good Place” in 2019 and a previous nomination for “Nobody Wants This” in 2025.
As one of the evening’s notable fashion moments, Bell’s appearance underscored both her continued presence during awards season and the enduring influence of Giorgio Armani on the modern red carpet.
