The Screen Actors Guild Awards, commonly known as the SAG Awards, began decades after the Oscars and Golden Globes in 1995. Despite that, the annual event is one of the most anticipated on the awards season calendar, honoring the very best of both film and television. The red carpet has been home to some major fashion moments, too, from Halle Berry’s satin gown at the inaugural edition to Zendaya’s jaw-dropping Valentino couture in 2023. While actresses tend to favor glamorous gowns from the likes of Dior, Valentino, Givenchy, and more during the fête, some—like Jodie Foster and Yara Shahidi—aren’t afraid to take a risk with pants, playful skirts, or even the oddball fully tailored outfit.
