- America Ferrera
America Ferrera, who is 39 years old, surprised everyone with her outfit choice for the Barbie press tour. Usually seen in black or muted colors at award shows, she decided to channel her inner doll in a stunning Versace gown. The bespoke dress was so intricate that it took 400 hours to make and went through 10 versions before it was perfected. Ferrera's stylist, Karla Welch, couldn't contain her excitement and mentioned, "We thought we’d save the pink for last."
Gabrielle Union, who is 51 years old, looked stunning in a sparkly flared Carolina Herrera mini dress paired with a coordinating maxi skirt. This unique combination brought back the peplum trend and showcased the importance of being creative in fashion.
Zendaya, 27, put a modern twist on the corset trend with her stunning gown by Armani Privé. The dress had a black bodice peeking out from under a chrome pink gown adorned with palm trees.
- Hailee Steinfeld
At the event, Steinfeld, who is 27 years old, brought some drama to the red carpet. She looked whimsical, artistic, and youthful in a strapless Elie Saab dress. The gown had a plunging sweetheart neckline decorated with crushed gold embellishments. It flowed into a billowing skirt and she accessorized with a neck scarf.
Lupita Nyong’o, 41, looked stunning in a sky blue custom Armani Privé gown at the 2024 ceremony. The gown, adorned with sequins and feathers, accentuated Nyong’o’s figure and gave her a regal appearance. Originally made for the 2020 event, Nyong’o opted to wear it this year. The gown perfectly complemented Da’Vine Joy Randolph’s Louis Vuitton dress as Nyong’o presented her with the Best Supporting Actress award, a category Nyong’o had won in 2014.
