Reach for the stars in a Valentino gown like Emma's
Emma Stone looks la la lovely as per usual on the Golden Globes red carpet.
She opted for a custom made Valentino number that quite literally matched her brilliant star-power with its shiny cosmo embellishments throughout.
We love the delicate straps and plunging neckline done in soft pink pleats for a look that is ladylike, feminine and sexy all at once.
The gossamer thin fabric is dreamy and swoon worthy which is why we think Emma Stone might be in top running for our red carpet favorite.
Sadly, her dress was a bespoke piece by the Italian designer so we won't be able to get our hands on the exact one. That's why we've rounded up the next best thing in our edit below.
