From Michelle Pfeiffer to Chase Infiniti and more

The Gotham TV Awards Just Delivered One of the Best-Dressed Nights of the Year
The Gotham TV Awards red carpet does not get the same breathless coverage as the Emmys or the Oscars, but based on the fashion that showed up this year, it arguably deserves it. According to Harper's Bazaar, the night drew a guest list that collectively understood the assignment — and then rewrote it entirely.
The headline looks leaned heavily into the houses having their moment. Michelle Pfeiffer arrived in Chanel by Matthieu Blazy, a pairing that felt almost cosmically right — two icons, one image. Rhea Seehorn wore Valentino by Alessandro Michele, whose maximalist romanticism suits her particular brand of quiet intensity in the best possible way. Sarah Pidgeon and Paul Anthony Kelly both dressed in Tom Ford by Haider Ackermann, making the case that the new creative era at Ford is ready for its red-carpet close-up.
Then there was the vintage contingent, which frankly stole the conversation. Myha'la sourced an archival Gucci pull, Joy Sunday went deep into the Roberto Cavalli archive, and Haley Lu Richardson unearthed a vintage Donna Karan piece that reminded everyone why the '90s never fully left. Vintage on a red carpet used to read as budget-conscious; now it reads as the most considered choice in the room.
The rest of the carpet filled in beautifully. Kerry Washington in Oscar de la Renta, Lili Reinhart in Valentino, Kate Mara in House of Gilles, Grace Gummer in structural Issey Miyake, Brittany Snow in Reem Acra, Aja Naomi King in Ulla Johnson, and Molly Ringwald in emerging label Lein — a name worth remembering. Jeremy Pope in Gucci and Chase Infiniti in Louis Vuitton rounded out a red carpet that felt genuinely diverse in its fashion vocabulary, not just its faces.
The Gotham TV Awards just quietly confirmed what the fashion industry already suspects: prestige television has cultivated a generation of actresses with actual style conviction, and the red carpet is better for it.
