All Dressed Up and Nowhere to Go? In lieu of a Red Carpet, Celebs (and their Stylists) turn to Instagram

The 26th annual Critics’ Choice Awards, honoring the year in film and television, took place a little over a week ago in an in-person/virtual hybrid format. And while award shows in 2021 feel a lot like dropping in on a Hollywood Zoom call, the stars who received the coveted link joined the video hangout from their couches in everything from custom couture to feathered sleepwear.

In case you missed it, a big new trend this year is not posing ON the red carpet, but posing FOR Instagram, where celebrities don’t just tell you “who” they’re wearing, but where they got the tights, shoes, who did their hair, and all the other nitty gritty dish. Here are just a few of the highlights:
