In Hollywood, A-list celebrities are known for bringing glamorous designs to the red carpet—but it’s their stylists who are often the brains behind the operation. Working in tandem with their famous clients, red carpet stylists craft unforgettable fashion moments that are often discussed for years to come. This was certainly the case in 2024, with the likes of Zendaya, Nicole Kidman, Emma Corin, Colman Domingo, and more serving up major looks throughout the year. In honor of the banner year in fashion, Vogue has rounded up the standout stylists who helped make the past 12 months an extremely fun (and chic) ride.
What were the parameters for making the list? We looked to those who too risks and brought boldness to the red carpet (see: Rihanna in a fuzzy hat, or Zendaya in archival Galliano-era Dior) and also highlighted stylists who maintained a clientele with varying aesthetics. (Danielle Goldberg, for one, is currently working with everyone from Ayo Edebiri and Greta Lee to Saoirse Ronan—each known for having a strong sense of personal style.) Pepper in a few custom couture or fresh-off-the-runway looks, and we solidified a list of stylists who are fast becoming Hollywood’s most in-demand style savants.
Below, meet the 14 best red carpet stylists of the year.
