Selena Gomez’s Golden Globes Dress Was So Cinderella-Coded

Selena Gomez paid tribute to her roots at the 2025 Golden Globes — at least sartorially. “It feels very Cinderella-like,” she said of her look in a red carpet pre-show interview on ET & Variety Live at the Golden Globes, which could be a reference to either her Disney days or her 2008 film Another Cinderella Story that only OG Selenators would clock.

Either way, the fairy-tale moment was fitting. After all, the actor racked up an impressive two noms at the Jan. 5 event: Best Actress in a Comedy Series (Only Murders in the Building) and Best Supporting Female Actor in a Motion Picture (Emilia Pérez). Although the ultra-rare double nod was a testament to her acting chops, her elegant outfit proved she’s an equally major fashion icon.

Selena’s Off-The-Shoulder Gown

Gomez has a signature style: pantsuits, tuxedo dresses, and no-fuss black gowns. For months, she’s worn them repeatedly and exclusively to star-studded bashes and red carpets. The fact that she wore color to the Globes, then, was already a deviation from the norm and a treat. But the satin powder blue — similar to the hue Cinderella is known to wear — was nothing short of regal.

Designed by Prada, the dress featured an off-the-shoulder neckline with folded details on each sleeve. Its silhouette was simple; apart from a cinched waist, the dress followed her figure without being too form-fitting. She clutched a matching blue scarf over her forearm, vaguely recalling Jackie O, her other design inspiration, whom she name-checked in the same red-carpet interview.

Although her style typically teeters on the minimalist side, the occasion called for grander jewelry. With the help of stylist Erin Walsh, the Rare Beauty founder accessorized with a sparkly diamond necklace, studs, and rings from Tiffany & Co.

As for her beauty look, the “Calm Down” singer wore a pink lip and smoky eyes and styled her bob in Old Hollywood-style curls.

Shoutout To Her Date

Gomez, who announced her engagement to Benny Blanco on Dec. 11, was accompanied by her new fiancé. The music producer wore a white shirt embroidered with pearls and beads, which he topped off with a cream pantsuit seemingly made of a terrycloth material not unlike a robe’s.

What a stylish duo.
