Olivier Awards 2026 Red Carpet Rundown

Posted on April 14, 2026

We gave Olivier Award winners Cate Blanchett and Rachel Zegler some spotlight time, but it’s time for us to round up the rest of the elegantly attired attendees and give them all a piece of our minds. Shall we do it together? Like a slightly bitchy family? Let’s.

 

Adjoa Andoh in Roland Mouret

Love ourselves a sharp pewter look and this dress definitely qualifies. We don’t think the silver sandals look right with it, however. We’re thinking bronze or gold.

 

Beverley Knight in Khaled & Marwan

Pure stunning. And very helpful to any fellow attendees who need to check their makeup but don’t want to stand in line for the ladies room.

 

Bryan Cranston and Robin Dearden

Acceptable and on point, but her gown looks a little chintzy and flimsy to us.

 

Elizabeth Hurley

No arguments here. This is downright demure for her. She looks great in white and we’re surprised to admit that we like the construction of the skirt. She just needs to yank on the neckline a little to get it centered properly.

 

Jane Krakowski

Can’t argue with that. It’s a little generic, but theater award ceremonies – especially British ones – don’t really call for high glamour or flash.

 

Marianne Jean-Baptiste in  Jenny Packham
Pin

Lovely and sharp. Hair and makeup are beautiful, earrings are well chosen.

 

Minnie Driver in Emilia Wickstead

It’s a pretty floral and we always feel reluctant critizing florals on the red carpet because so many stars and stylists are scared of them, but it does come off a little bedsheety, especially since the styling is practically nonexistent.

 

Monica Barbaro in Roberto Cavalli
Pin

Love the drapey, delicate quality of the bust and we don’t mind the black skirt, but that transition from bodice to skirt is kind of ugly and tacky looking to our eyes.

 

Olivia Williams in Taller Marmo
Pin

It’s too much — literally. We’re all for coverage and comfort but she can have that even if she got rid of several yards of fabric in this look.

 

Rosamund Pike in Burberry
Pin

This might be the most conventional thing she’s worn in years. We’re not mad at it, but it seems kind of boring for her. We like the shoes, but we think they’re too fussy for the style of dress. Not loving the wethead look at all.

 

Russell Tovey
Pin

Looks good, but that’s a goofy-ass way of posing to show your pocket chain.

 

Tom Hiddleston and Zawe Ashton
Pin

He looks great. We can’t say we like anything at all about her dress — not the color, not the tiered tutu, not the high waist and not the fluffy shoulder treatment.

 

Vanessa Williams in Mary Katrantzou
Pin

Great dress but that hem length is awkward and those overly complicated shoes don’t look like they’re worth the hassle.
