It’s official. 2016 is the Year of the Cape. It’s empowering, it’s glam, and we bet it makes twirling really REALLY fun. What makes us so cape-confident? Because a lot of ladies rocked the cape dress at the 2016 Golden Globes.
Each celeb had their own unique way of wearing a cape, depending on the style and cut and color of their dress, and everyone looked stunning. Take a look and prepare to make some major heart-eyes.
Cate Blanchett:
We’re no fashion experts, but Cate Blanchett’s dress looks like blush-pink unicorn hair, and it’s taking our breath away.
Emilia Clarke:
I would not expect anything less epically beautiful from the Queen of Dragons herself (and it’s kinda Morticia Addams-y too? Which we LOVE).
Taraji P. Henson:
Cookie, I mean, Taraji looks regal AF — pretty sure her character on Empire would full-heartedly approve of this dazzling gown.
Jada Pinkett Smith:
The teal! The matching open-toed shoes! The shimmery belt! Oh, Jada Pinkett Smith, we bow down.
Jennifer Lopez:
Mustard yellow is always a ~tricky~ color to pull off, but Jennifer Lopez nails it, accenting it with sparkling heels, diamond necklace, and that deep red lipstick.
Saoirse Ronan:
Saoirse Ronan, you angel human. The only thing missing from this ensemble is a floating halo.
Regina King:
If anyone can pull off a golden-sequin gown with a translucent cape, it’s Regina King. We applaud.
