We revisit the most talked-about looks from the BAFTA 2026, where cinema and high fashion once again converged in London.
As London remains immersed in the Autumn/Winter 2026 runway season, attention shifted to the Royal Festival Hall. The BAFTAs once again confirmed that the real parallel competition unfolds not only within the award categories, but also on the red carpet.
Among the most discussed appearances was Emma Stone, who chose a structured Louis Vuitton design — sophisticated and minimalist, perfectly aligned with the refined elegance that has defined her recent style era. In contrast, Timothée Chalamet reinforced his status as a menswear reference in a Givenchy look designed by Sarah Burton, blending classic tailoring with contemporary attitude.
Another standout was Regé-Jean Page, impeccable in a Hugo Boss suit, proving that well-executed simplicity remains one of the most effective sartorial statements. Representing a new generation, Sadie Sink confirmed the growing influence of emerging stars within the international red carpet circuit.

The evening also gathered names such as Monica Bellucci, Kate Hudson, Glenn Close, Patrick Dempsey, Jacob Elordi, Jessie Buckley and Gillian Anderson, alongside the commanding presence of Teyana Taylor in Burberry. The pairing of Paul Mescal and Gracie Abrams in Prada delivered a youthful aesthetic, while Archie Madekwe opted for Dior, and Aimee Lou Wood and Tilda Swinton prioritised individuality over trend-driven choices.
As is often the case at the BAFTAs, fashion did not simply accompany cinema — it competed with it. At times, it even overshadowed it.
