Awards season isn't slowing down just yet, and neither are the stars on the red carpet.

The 2026 Costume Designers Guild Awards (CDGA) took place at the historic Ebell of Los Angeles on February 12, and celebrities, including One Battle After Another star Teyana Taylor and Song Sung Blue actress Kate Hudson, made a statement in their striking red carpet looks.

The CDGA recognizes outstanding achievement in costume design for film, television, short form productions, and costume illustration, so it's not surprising that fashion played a big part on the night.

Tracee Ellis Ross, Janelle Monáe, Jodie Turner-Smith, and Katherine LaNasa all looked incredible, opting for bold colors and statement pieces as they took to the stage to honor their colleagues.
