The SAG Awards fall in the middle of a busy awards season schedule, however the show’s red carpet seemingly always produces a number of the season’s most memorable looks.
Last year’s awards show alone introduced a number of unforgettable red carpet looks, many of which gave a nod to Pantone’s fall 2019 color predictions. Take awards season favorite Lady Gaga, who attended the SAG Awards in an off-white, feather detailed Dior couture dress that had just hit the Paris runway six days prior.
Yara Shahidi, for another, brought a dose of playfulness to the SAG Awards red carpet in 2019 in a sequin, blush-toned catsuit from Fendi’s couture fall 2018 collection, one of the last designed by the late Karl Lagerfeld.
