She nabbed the award for Best Actress in a comedy last year for Lady Bird. But at this year’s Golden Globe Awards ceremony, Saoirse Ronan failed to pick up the Best Actress award in a drama.
Although she lost to veteran actress Renee Zellweger, Saoirse dazzled like a winner in a shimmering slinky gown by Celine.

The 25-year-old actress, who usually wears dresses with modest silhouettes on the red carpet, went the sexy route for the event.
Dressing outside her comfort zone, she went braless and showed a hint of sideboob in the sequin-embellished floor-length gown. It features a plunging cowl neck, an open back, spaghetti straps, and a dangerously high slit, perfectly highlighting her figure.
The dress is a clear departure from her rather modest style. Stylist Elizabeth Saltzman told Vogue that Saoirse “feels different in Celine.”
“She talks about the brand so much, I had to listen to her,” said stylist Elizabeth Saltzman on Saoirse’s choice to wear Celine.
The London-based stylist continued, “We wanted to celebrate Saoirse’s femininity while being powerful and a little bit sexy.” “You don’t think of Saoirse showing skin. This was all about showing skin,” she added.

To complement the ‘70s-inspired gown, hairstylist Adir Abergel styled Saoirse’s hair in soft waves with a little volume at the crown and rolled tips.
Celebrity makeup artist Kara Yoshimoto Bua used Chanel makeup to beautify the actress. She simply enhanced her natural beauty with a flush of pink eyeshadow, mascara, pink lipstick, and blush on.

For her accessories, she wore a pair of elegant earrings and several rings from Atelier Swarovski. The Irish/American actress teamed her sensational frock with strappy sandals by Celine.

After the ceremony, Saoirse headed to the 21st Annual InStyle and Warner Bros. Golden Globe after party, wearing the same alluring look.

On the night before the Golden Globes, Saoirse joined A-listers at the BAFTA Tea Party in Los Angeles.
She looked youthful in a Giambattista Valli Spring 2020 outfit, which included a sleeveless zip-up top with bows on the sides and a high-waisted mini skirt with a high slit and scalloped hem. The two-piece ensemble is intricately detailed with gold beads and floral embroidery.

Saoirse pulled her hair back in a bun, showing her gold earrings. The Lady Bird actress wore a natural makeup look with a hint of shimmery pink eyeshadow and lipstick.

For her feet, she opted for a pair of Roger Vivier sandals in white satin. They feature ankle straps with crystal buckles, open square toes, and 4-inch heels with crystal accent.

On Friday, Saoirse was named Best International Actress at the 9th Annual AACTA International Awards for her role in the Greta Gerwig movie, Little Women.
The Irish-American actress took to the stage at Mondrian Los Angeles to pick up her award. She was clad in a black metallic Ralph & Russo Couture gown, which features a floor-length pleated skirt and a bustier bodice with a sweetheart neckline.
