Beautiful Hollywood Red Carpet Outfits On A Budget—How You Can Look Like Your Favorite Celebrity Without Breaking The Bank!
From Jennifer Lopez’s sizzling green Versace gown that left little to the imagination at the 42nd Grammy Awards to Cher’s revealing all-black ensemble at the 58th Academy Awards, the stars are always vying for that top spot on the tabloids, newspapers, and magazines with their flamboyant outfits.
The red carpet award shows are attended by some of Hollywood’s brightest stars and broadcasted on media networks for millions of fans worldwide. If you’ve ever wanted to replicate your favorite celebrity’s red carpet look on a budget, here is a list of some glamorous outfit replicas that can be yours for less than $250!
Sarah Jessica Parker – Price Undisclosed
Sarah Jessica Parker completely owned the 2015 Met Gala red carpet in her stunning H&M black attire and custom headpiece from Philip Treacy. The thigh-high slit also gave fans a peek at her toned legs as she walked up the stairs of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
According to sources, Parker had already spent months designing her outfit for the Met, when she was contacted by H&M. She was sold on the brand’s drive for sustainability linked to their Conscious Collective which was made from organic materials. Parker is reprising her role as Sarah Sanderson in the upcoming sequel of Hocus Pocus, currently in production.
Angelina Jolie – 169.99
Angelina Jolie stood out from her A-list counterparts in 2004’s 76th Academy Awards with a beautiful Marc Bouwer satin white gown, a tastefully modern take on classic Hollywood style. With a plunging neckline and fabric that flowed down to the red carpet, this became one of Jolie’s most iconic looks of all time.
In a recent poll conducted by British marketplace OnBuy, more than 3,400 fashionistas voiced their opinion, with a majority vote of 16% going for this satin white outfit as the best Academy Awards outfit ever worn by a celebrity. In case you’re wondering, the runner-up spot was taken by Kate Hudson’s Versace number worn on the 2003 red carpet.
Demi Moore – Price Undisclosed
Demi Moore caused quite a stir at the 1989 Oscars Awards when she turned up in black bicycle shorts she had kept from her younger years. Fortunately, her incredibly embarrassing choice of wardrobe was overshadowed by the fact that the show had no host, which meant the show was a disaster and a night to forget.
Except for the 2020 controversy, this was the last time the Oscars were held without a host. Funnily enough, Moore had apparently DIY’d her costume herself from a pair of spandex, bike shorts, and a corset. Moore is presently working with director Amanda Kramer on her new movie Please Baby Please.
Nicole Kidman – $168.99
Nicole Kidman stepped out at the 2018 Academy Awards in a show-stopping electric blue strapless Armani Privé gown that featured a bold front slit in the middle and a bow at the waist. The shocking blue fabric had a shiny, glittery finish, perfect for catching the camera flash and providing a little extra pizzazz for the paparazzi photos smeared across the front pages of newspapers the next morning.
Kidman also paired her Italian costume with silver Christian Louboutins and Harry Winston accessories along with an Omega timepiece. She is currently keeping herself busy with the filming of Aaron Sorkin’s drama-biography Being the Ricardos.
