Ruffles, tulle and volume — this season's gowns are anything but minimal.

Why it matters

Red carpet looks are built by whole teams, which is exactly what makes them fun to look at. The interesting part is the idea behind a look, and what travels from the step-and-repeat into real life.

What to keep in mind

  • Look for the one detail you could borrow
  • Notice what keeps coming back season after season
  • Remember the lighting, the fitting and the glam squad

The bottom line

Take the inspiration and leave the pressure.
