Fanning walked the Golden Globes red carpet in a Balmain gown designed in 1960, according to her stylist, Samantha McMillen. An oversize bow adorned the strapless neckline, and the A-line skirt featured an asymmetrical hem.

Bows have been big in bridal fashion over the last few years, so Fanning's look would be perfect for a wedding.

Greta Lee put a modern spin on the bow trend.

Lee chose a cream Loewe gown for the Golden Globes, where she was nominated for her performance in "Past Lives."

The front of the gown had a subtly scooped neckline and a mermaid skirt, creating a simple silhouette. But the back of the dress was more dynamic with its vertical bow that knotted in the middle.

Danielle Goldberg styled the look.

Jonathan Bailey's all-white look at the Golden Globes would be fitting for a summer wedding.

Bailey's custom Givenchy suit consisted of an oversize jacket, high-waisted trousers, and a semi-sheer shirt with no tie. Black loafers and a watch tied it all together.

The ensemble looked formal yet relaxed.

Elizabeth Olsen wore an actual wedding dress to the 2024 Golden Globes.

Olsen chose Vivienne Westwood's Lyra dress from the designer's 2023 bridal couture collection.

The white gown's corset bodice was framed by intricate lace appliqué on the sweetheart neckline and the top of the skirt.

Another stretch of sheer lace covered the bottom of the skirt, and a delicate train flowed out from the back of the gown, adding glamour to the ensemble. Elizabeth Stewart styled the look.

Sheryl Lee Ralph's Emmys dress combined the structure of a suit with the glamour of a gown.

If you're torn between wearing a gown or a suit to your wedding, you could take inspiration from Ralph's stark-white Emmys dress.

Designed by Christian Siriano and styled by her daughter Ivy Coco, the bodice looked like a low-cut suit with oversize lapels and a belt resembling double-breasted buttons.

The form-fitting skirt flared at the bottom, nodding to a more traditional bridal look.

Charlie Puth's long jacket for the Emmys offered a fun alternative to a traditional suit.

Puth walked the Emmys red carpet in a nontraditional suit from Balmain. He paired high-waisted, white trousers and a blazer coat with a black, polka-dotted shirt made of a silky material.

The outfit would be a one-of-a-kind wedding look that still fits the occasion.

The sparkly embellishments and feather detailing on Issa Rae's Emmys gown would stand out at a wedding.

If you want a subtle pop of color at your wedding, the Pamella Roland gown Rae chose for the Golden Globes could be the perfect dress inspiration, as its pale-yellow hue is warm without being over the top.

Feathers and sparkly embellishments covered the sheath-style gown with a high neckline. The dress had an effortlessly glamorous feel.

Ayo Edebiri rocked an all-white suit at the Critics Choice Awards.

The Row designed Edebiri's relaxed, all-white suit, which she paired with a high-neck T-shirt thanks to her stylist, Danielle Goldberg. Black shoes, long earrings, and round, black sunglasses completed the look.

If you're looking for a nontraditional wedding look, this suit could be perfect for you.

Keri Russell's high-neck gown combined ruffle detailing with asymmetrical sleeves.

Russell attended the Critics Choice Awards in a high-neck gown designed by Stéphane Rolland and styled by Frank Fleming.

The dress had a straight silhouette, flowing into a dramatic train, and large ruffles ran down the center until they tapered off at the bottom. It could easily work for a bride who wanted a sophisticated look.

Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor embraced the suit dress trend at the Critics Choice Awards.

The "Origin" star's custom Jovana Louis dress looked like a true suit on the bodice, with a collar, asymmetrical lapels, and a built-in tie. But it turned into a gown as it flowed down, with ruffle detailing on the long sleeves and a mermaid train.

Taraji P. Henson's strapless gown for the Critics Choice Awards was simple and elegant.

Boss designed Henson's custom white gown, which Wayman + Micah styled for her.

The strapless gown was fairly simple, but a fold on the neckline and a coordinating scooped belt at the waist gave it a modern structure. A thigh-high slit and a train gave it a boost of drama.

Fantasia Barrino rocked the bridal cape trend at the Critics Choice Awards.

Like Henson, Barrino chose a strapless, white gown for the event. But she paired her dress, designed by Alin Le' Kal, with a massive feathered cape.

It sat on her shoulders and flowed down around her like a train, fitting right into the bridal cape trend that has been popular in recent years. The cape's volume contrasted perfectly with the structured dress.

Allison Howell Williams' strapless jumpsuit could be a perfect alternative to a wedding gown.

Zuhair Murad designed the white jumpsuit Williams wore to the Critics Choice Awards.

Two lapels formed a point in the strapless neckline, and a belt cinched Williams' waist before flowing into tapered pants. Sparkly embellishments on the bodice added a pop of glamour to the look, which Cristina Ehrlich styled with silver jewelry.

Taylor Swift's white Grammys dress featured a thigh-high slit and a bold train.

Swift walked the Grammys red carpet in a strapless Schiaparelli gown styled by Joseph Cassell. Ruching collected on one of Swift's hips, cutting into a slit and a dramatic train.

The star paired the dress with black gloves and shoes, giving it a red-carpet edge, but the gown could easily translate to a bridal look, too.

Summer Walker's all-white, textured gown coordinated with her hat.

Usama Ishtay styled Walker's ensemble for the Grammys.

Her strapless gown was form-fitting and had a corset bodice. But the simple silhouette contrasted with the sparkly, white feathers that covered the dress from head to toe. A coordinating, oversize hat completed the look.

Olivia Rodrigo's vintage Grammys dress featured subtle sparkles.

Rodrigo donned a vintage Versace gown from 1995 at the Grammys.

The silky cream dress had a sweetheart neckline and spaghetti straps, and delicate, pink beading adorned it. A bride looking for a hint of sparkle would love the gown.

Boygenius' coordinating suits included a delicate pop of color.

White suits are a classic wedding ensemble, and the members of Boygenius offered a fresh take on the look with their Grammys outfits.

Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers, and Lucy Dacus wore matching custom suits designed by Thom Browne for the event.

They paired their cropped jackets and high-waisted pants with black ties, black shoes, and pink flowers on their lapels, bringing a bit of color to their ensembles.

Kat Graham's dress had an elegant cape and illusion detailing.

Graham's Stéphane Rolland gown was one of the most daring white dresses on the Grammys red carpet.

An angular cape made up the top of the bodice, flowing over Graham's chest. The gown hugged her figure, and half of the bodice was made of sheer fabric, cutting across her middle.

White gloves brought elegance to the modern look.

Kelly Clarkson's off-the-shoulder dress would be fitting for a modern bride.

Clarkson's white Jason Wu Collection dress hugged her figure, flowing out gently around her feet.

Her gown sat off her shoulders, and the fabric cut across the bodice to create structure. If you added a veil, the look could instantly become bridal.
