11 Red Carpet Attires With Fascinating Behind The Scene Stories That'll Leave You In Awe

We all love to see our favorite celebrities wear gowns, tuxedos, or just get glammed up during a grand event after a successful movie, single, or similar occasion. Red carpet outfits hold significant meaning in the world of lights, cameras, and fame.

The red carpet moment is one of the opportunities where celebrities can garner the public's attention, and the most important aspect of all – wearing a fashion designer's piece of art. Whenever it is time for the Met Gala, Oscars, or similar events, one of the buzz centers of attraction is these celebrities' #OOTD or, should we say, #GOTD (Glam of the Day).

Yes, our celebrities and fashion designers can slay it when they arrive at the venue; some even perform while walking on the red carpet. However, they have certainly gone through so much just to achieve that fashion performance on the day.

We, the viewers and fans, might not see it clearly, but it’s a work of art and a team effort from the celebrity to the fashion designer to create a look that will continue to dazzle throughout the night.

Here are 11 red carpet outfits with interesting backstories you never knew until now!

1. My hair, my say; my dress, my way. Hayden Panettiere may have had a bad experience with her fashion designer and brand as she wore the dress she liked (and bought) during the Golden Globe Awards.

She specifically wanted to wear Tom Ford’s design, but the brand representatives didn’t accommodate her interest. Our girl bought a side-split monochrome dress with a spaghetti strap halter neck and absolutely slayed the day.

5. Go big or go home. During the 2018 Met Gala, Blake Lively hired a bus to travel with her custom-made Versace dress, which featured stunning details of rhinestones.

6. Selena Gomez stunned with her look during the Hollywood Beauty Awards, but unfortunately, she could not eat or even lift her cup to drink water due to a fashion situation. Her beautiful blush pink Patou off-shoulder dress was too low on her arms, which prevented her from eating.

7. As badass as her role gets, so did Keira Knightley’s dress before walking on the red carpet. During an event back in 2005, her dress got ripped from the bottom to the top, but thankfully, she always comes prepared and changed her red carpet moment in just a flash.

8. Nothing beats a traditional solution. Kylie Jenner rocked her 1987 vintage Jean Paul Gaultier green dress during the 72nd Annual Parsons Benefit, but it was too small, so her assistant sewed the dress to fit her body.

13. Kim Kardashian had the privilege of wearing Marilyn Monroe’s iconic dress (which is also one of the most well-known gowns from the 20th century) to the 2022 Met Gala. Her duty as a fashionista called, and she had to lose 16 pounds in 3 weeks to achieve this look, and she did it!

Dressing up and walking on the red carpet for a prestigious event is not a joke in the world of fashion. It takes serious quick thinking and movement to save a look when a wardrobe malfunction occurs at the moment.

Kudos to the successes of these #GOTDs!
