These 2021 Critics Choice Awards Fashion Moments Will Make You Want To Dress Up Again
They really delivered.
Award season has officially started and despite the changes in format across the board (and virtual broadcasting), it seems celebrities are doing their best to bring us glamorous moments similar to those seen on pre-pandemic red carpets. As it happens, the fashion seen at the 26th Critics Choice Awards (hosted by Taye Diggs) was no exception. A-listers the likes of Yara Shahidi, Anya Taylor-Joy, and Cynthia Erivo delivered truly memorable style moments that you'll likely be thinking about all week long.
Just as oversized gowns swept the 2021 Golden Globes a week prior, sleek pantsuits were the trend du jour for Critics Choice on March 7. Attendees like Andra Day and H.E.R. embraced the unexpected look with gusto, with Mank's Amanda Seyfried leading the charge. Her suit by Miu Miu featured a bedazzled tuxedo bib top that was a modern spin on a classic Old Hollywood look.
Not to be outdone was Erivo, whose custom Vera Wang dress featured an elaborate mesh overlay that covered a black flowing skirt — it was truly a sight to be seen.
