The Golden Globes 2021 might have been a largely virtual affair - with a few in-person presenters who walked what was a dramatically scaled-back red carpet - but boy did the 'attendees' still bring the glamour. Working from home with their personal posses of make-up artists and stylists, the dresses were bigger (Rosamund Pike in Molly Goddard), bolder (Viola Davis in Lavie by CK) and better (Anya Taylor-Joy in Dior) than ever before. From Emma Corrin's video call collar to Cynthia Erivo's zesty appearance, here are all the best dressed stars you don't want to miss seeing.

Viola Davis
Nominated for her role in Ma Rainey's Black Bottom, Viola Davis struck a power pose in her printed dress from Lavie by CK. The Oscar-winning actor took to her feed the night before the ceremony to say #TimesUpGlobes, addressing the fact that out of 87, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association does not have a single Black member. 'The journey of a Black artist is littered with obstacles in creating, developing and being acknowledged for our work. If we continue to keep silent, the younger generation of artists will have the exact same load to carry. No more excuses. #TIMESUPGlobes #TIMESUP.'
Anya Taylor-Joy
Anya Taylor-Joy brought old-world glamour to proceedings, with ice blonde waves and a swooshing emerald gown by Dior Haute Couture.
Cynthia Erivo
Cynthia Erivo's one of the red carpet's best disruptors - and she didn't disappoint for last night's ceremony, appearing in sculptural and shockingly-bright Valentino Haute Couture, and jewellery from Maria Tash.
Elle Fanning
Nominated for The Great, Elle Fanning opted for a liquid silk slip dress from one of her favourite labels, Gucci.
Emma Corrin
Emma Corrin 'arrived' with a bang, scooping her first major award for The Crown, and proving that the video call collar is still very much in business.
Gillian Anderson
The Iron Lady herself - Gillian Anderson - ditched the skirt suit and pearls for something a little more red carpet-worthy courtesy of Dior Haute Couture.
Olivia Coleman
Olivia Coleman stuck to her fashion guns for last night's ceremony with pin-sharp tailoring from Giorgio Armani.
Margot Robbie
Chanel's polka dot gown, with its pretty tiered skirt, looked a treat on presenter Margot Robbie.
Angela Bassett
Angela Bassett's amethyst-coloured gown from Dolce & Gabbana (complete with a fabulously feathered shoulder) dialled the drama up to 10.
Maya Rudolph
Valentino's bold florals were a match made in heaven with Maya Rudolph.
Tiffany Haddish
Tiffany Haddish looked like a shimmering statuette in her armour-like gown by Alberta Ferretti.
Jane Fonda
Jane Fonda opted for understated glamour at last night's ceremony with pearl white suiting, and jewellery from Pomellato.
Catherine Zeta-Jones
Proving the leg pop isn't quite done, Catherine Zeta-Jones wowed in Dolce & Gabbana.
Salma Hayek
Wearing Alexander McQueen, Salma Hayek made a case for dressing to match the carpet.
Gal Gadot
Gal Gadot bucked the trend for floor-sweeping gowns with a bright white minidress.
January Jones
Last seen at 2011's Golden Globes, January Jones dug this sizzling red number out of her wardrobe for its 10th anniversary on the red carpet.
Sarah Paulson
Only Sarah Paulson, nominated for her spine-tingling performance as Nurse Ratched, would be able to swing a custom-made cast by Prada.
Lily Collins
Lily Collins channelled Sylvie (Emily in Paris's chicest character in our books) in one-shouldered Saint Laurent.
Nicola Coughlan
Nicola Coughlan wore a perfectly puffed prom dress by Molly Goddard, and knock-out jewels by De Beers.
Regina King
Another contender for best statuette impersonation, this time Regina King, nominated for One Night In Miami, who worked a balcony shot beforehand in her gilded Louis Vuitton.
Rosamund Pike
Molly Goddard's stellar tulle tiers also found their way onto Rosamund Pike.
Kaley Cuoco
The award for the best princess dress goes Kaley Cuoco, who dazzled in Oscar de la Renta.
Andra Day
Winning big for The United States Vs Billie Holiday, Andra Day stole the show in Chanel.
Laverne Cox
Laverne Cox's whole look, especially the floor-trailing sleeves on her gown by Thai Nguyen, was breath-taking.
Susan Kelechi Watson
In one of our favourite looks of the night, Susan Kelechi Watson wore the couture version of a beaded fringe curtain by Georges Hobeika.
