Ukraine at the Globes
On 7 January, the 76th Golden Globe Awards took place at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in California. An evening all about the red carpet, stunning dresses and suits, and, of course, an atmosphere of fun, the event was of significance for the Ukrainian fashion industry with two Hollywood stars strutting the stuff in Ukrainian designs.
It’s no secret that Ukrainian brands are starting to fill the wardrobes of many international stars, including Beyoncé, Jay Z, Rihanna, Bella Hadid, and Madonna. However, celebrities wearing creations by Ukrainian designers on the red carpet is incredible progress.
American comedian Megan Mullally, well-known for her role on Will & Grace, appeared in a dress by Ukrainian brand NAVRO, highlighted further as she took to the stage to present an award. Mullally shared photos of the evening on her Instgram page, where she says she ordered the dress online without the help of a stylist. If you haven’t come across it yet, the blue maxi dress, with its appealing print, is hard to miss.
Later, at the after-party, American actress Jamie Chung was seen wearing a chic red dress by Nadya Dzyak. Chung is famous for her MTV reality series The Real World: San Diego, and such films as Grown Ups, Sorority Row, and The Hangover Part II. “The incredible Jamie Chung in our dress at the Golden Globe Awards yesterday,” wrote Dzyak later, “means miracles really do happen.”
