We appreciate that A-listers and their stylists are under no small amount of pressure. One misstep and you’re sure to feel the wrath of fashion police (both the official media and social media kind). But there are few things we appreciate more than a great red-carpet risk. Before the big ceremony on Sunday, we’re saluting some of our favorite looks from the Globes over the years. Our credo: Make it big, make it blingy, but for God’s sake, just don’t make it boring.
