As 2023 draws to a close, we revisit some of the most memorable looks on the red carpet this year. This year the red carpet was dominated by cat cosplay outfits which made waves online. Starting off with the videos of Kim Kardashian trying to befriend Karl Lagerfeld's cat Choupette, to the iconic Doja Cat red carpet turnup and interview where she just continuously mewed to the camera; and the unforgetable Jared Leto costume show off.


Margot Robbie in Vivienne Westwood

This undoubtedly was the Margot Robbie year, with the anticipated Barbie movie release which took the streets of some of the biggest cities across the globe, to the Barbenheimer which became a cultural phenomenon and wrote another page into the Pop culture history books.


Rihanna in Valentino

Rihanna showed up to the Met Gala 2023 in a stunning white Valentino gown, fashionably late, for the "Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty" inspired event.


Harry Styles in Egonlab

Harry Styles paid homage to Freddie Mercury in a Egonlab jumpsuit, a staple which has become a popular choice for the artist during his Harry's House tour. The jumpsuit was hand-embellished in Swarovski crystals and took over 150 hours to make.


Anne Hathaway in vintage Valentino

For the Fashion Awards 2023, Anne Hathaway wore an ivory gown from the Valentino Autumn/Winter 1993 collection, featuring ribbed details which create beautiful geometric shapes, carefully accentuating the body silhouette.


Jared Leto at the Met Gala

Jared Leto surely knows how to make an entrance at the Met Gala. With this year's theme being the icon Karl Lagerfeld, the stars decided to put on a costume, and turn into his favourite cat - Choupette. It's not a very traditional approach to the red carpet dilemma, but one we can definitely appreciate.


Elsa Hosk in Viktor & Rolf

The supermodel Elsa Hosk wore a Viktor & Rolf gown from the SS23 collection to the Cannes festival and caused a stir online. The optical illusion of a dress had us all gasping for air, in a stunning baby pink revealed under a two layer blue dress which covered the front and back.


Sienna Miller in Schiaparelli

Rihanna made a bit of a wave in the past year, and here Sienna Miller seems to have taken a page of her book, carefully showcasing a baby bump in a Schiaparelli custom gown at the Vogue World London event.


Cardi B in Gaurav Gupta

In early Spring Cardi B wore a Gaurav Gupta custom gown to the Grammys. An architectural masterpiece of one of India's rising talents made headlines across the globe in opulent blue.


Fan Bingbing in Christopher Bu

Fan Bingbing took over Cannes Festival this year with an iconic look by Christopher Bu - a stylist turned designer from China.


Rihanna in Schiaparelli

Rihanna had such an incredible year, with her return back to performing, that we just had to feature her twice. This time she's wearing a custom Schiaparelli Haute Couture gown to the 80th annual Golden Globes.
