The 2026 Actor Awards Fashion Looks Teyana Taylor

The celebrities were out in full force on the 2026 Annual Actor Awards red carpet (formerly known as the Screen Actors Guild Awards), at the Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall in L.A. on March 1. And along with a new name for the ceremony, is also the debut of its first-ever dress code. Developed in collaboration with Elle, the theme for the night is "Reimagining Hollywood Glamour from the ’20s and ’30s." Early arrivals, including red carpet host Paige Desorbo and show host Kristen Bell, proved that stylists and designers fully understood the assignment. Bell’s first of three looks of the night was a Georges Hobeika couture gown from the label’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection, accessorized with Messika jewelry.

The year’s buzziest nominees, like Kate Hudson for her role in Song Sung Blue and Teyana Taylor for One Battle After Another, did not disappoint. Hudson went the classic route, wearing a beautiful Valentino cape gown with a keyhole cutout in the center, while Taylor channeled a surrealist art-deco silhouette from Thom Browne complete with faux nipples. Both looks interpreted the theme in their own subjective way, yet it worked for the leading ladies.

Taylor’s on-screen daughter, Chase Infiniti, who is becoming as recognized for her style as much as her acting work, continued her awards season style streak in another effortless ensemble. Infiniti played up classic Old Hollywood in a custom Louis Vuitton gown fit with a matching crystal cap and De Beers jewelry. She revealed that the look was inspired by the late French dancer and singer, Josephine Baker.
