32 Incredible Celebrity Red Carpet Looks From This Year That I Haven't Been Able To Stop Thinking About

We're nearing the end of 2022, which means it's time to look back at the most important thing of them all: Who wore the best, most iconic, and spectacular red carpet looks from this year.

Looking back at 2022 as a whole, the fashion feels a little...underwhelming. Perhaps it was the few people who actually went in theme to the Met Gala. Perhaps it all seemed dull in comparison to a surprisingly strong 2021. Either way, the Venice Film Festival ended up being the most exciting red carpet. Take from this what you will.

Before we get into it, although this list is purposefully unranked, I want to highlight one person who consistently brought it: Jodie Turner-Smith. Narrowing down her looks was exceptionally difficult. Secondly, I'd like to shoutout Taylor Russell — if this year is anything to go by, her red carpet evolution will be one to watch.
