This Sunday marks the 77th annual Golden Globe Awards, celebrating the year's best moments in TV and film. While the list of nominees for 2020 includes plenty of shockers and snubs, the much-anticipated event is, even more notably, bound to bring all manner of fabulous red carpet fashions. (It also kicks off awards season, meaning the spectacular designs will just keep on coming.) In honor of the spectacle, Vogue is looking back at some of the glitzy ceremony's most memorable gowns on the step and repeat.

Past awards ceremonies conjure up an overwhelming number of fashion moments that continue to stand the test of time, even several decades later. (Fun fact: the first Globes were hosted in 1944.) Throwing it way back, the early years focused on Old Hollywood glamour: in 1957, Elizabeth Taylor went all the way with an embroidered gown, tiara, and door-knocker earrings; later in 1962, Marilyn Monroe accepted her Henrietta Award in a black sequined style. Then, in the 1970s and '80s, a more-is-more mentality overtook the carpet: Sonny and Cher showed up in 1973 looking fresh out of Studio 54, with Cher clad in a heavy fur and groovy midriff-baring ensemble. In 1987, singer Melba Moore attended in a puff-shouldered red gown that could easily appear on a Valentino runway today.

Later on, in the '90s, gowns were pared back with more severe, straight-down silhouettes. (Minimalism and clean lines were all the rage.) In 1999, Angelina Jolie wore a simple tank dress covered in silver sequins. (A woman ahead of her time, she even wore square-toed sandals with it.) In the early '00s, starlets began favoring flowy, romantic fits and dainty shoulder straps. Take Halle Berry in 2003, who slipped into one of her best red carpet looks to date—a pastel blue number with form-hugging ruching in all the right places.

By the late '00s, fashion got a little more, well, noughties; Beyoncé wore a glittery gold dress by Elie Saab in 2007, a fitting choice given she was nominated for her turn in Dreamgirls. That same year, Reese Witherspoon brought back short hemlines in that infamous yellow Nina Ricci number. Which leaves us with the recent years: a fan favorite will always be Lupita Nyong'o in 2014, when she wore a red Ralph Lauren cape dress. Or, in 2016, Brie Larson opted for a gold halter gown by Calvin Klein—a look that shined quite literally, just like the Globes statue itself.

In 2018, the Golden Globes saw attendees wore black in honor of the #TimesUp movement, protesting sexual harassment and gender inequality in Hollywood. But last year, the red carpet made a return to anything-goes fashion; highlights included Lady Gaga's lilac Valentino Haute Couture gown—a fitting creation for the A Star Is Born actress—Danai Gurira's fiery red Rodarte gown, and Janelle Monae's unexpected evening tweed by Chanel. Here, find the best Golden Globes red carpet moments of all time.
