- The Golden Globes red carpet has become a must-see event for daring celebrity fashion.
- In the past, stars like Jennifer Lopez and Anne Hathaway have worn bold, skin-baring styles.
- More recently, Miley Cyrus stole the show with an eye-catching outfit covered in cutouts.
On the Golden Globes red carpet, just about anything goes.
While some stars stick with glamorous gowns and diamond accessories, others take major fashion risks.
Backless tops, see-through dresses, and neon outfits have all had their moment in the spotlight.
Here's a look at those styles and some of the other boldest pieces ever worn at the prestigious event.

The loose-fitting piece had thin shoulder straps, silver sparkles from top to bottom, and plunging fabric that dipped just above her backside.
It was so bold that MacDowell opted not to wear any dramatic makeup or jewelry — only a touch of red-tinted gloss.

She wore a John Galliano for Dior gown designed to look like it had been shredded.
The sleeveless piece had an asymmetrical neckline, tears across its bodice, and a ruched skirt decorated with blue sparkles and a thigh-high slit.
The outfit was memorable and one of the most daring ever seen at the event. Love completed it with silver sparkles dusted across her hair.

Dressed by Elie Saab, Hathaway wore a sleeveless gown that was bold in both color and shape.
Its hot-pink fabric was infused with spots of green, and the band beneath its neckline was embellished with small beads.
The garment also featured a deep, square-shaped neckline and a nearly hip-high slit that revealed her metallic sandals.

She walked the red carpet that year in a sparkle-covered gown from Marchesa.
Two swaths of fabric covered her chest and created a plunging halter neckline, also making way for a backless bodice.
The latter feature emphasized the gown's mid-rise, floor-length skirt.

She did so via a long-sleeved minidress designed by Zuhair Murad.
The garment, made entirely from lace, was see-through and featured a deep V-shaped neckline. Its form-fitting bodice was also connected to its short skirt.
Berry perfected the outfit with simple sandals, an updo hairstyle, and statement earrings.

Instead, she wore only a blazer, crystal body chain, and floor-length skirt from Altuzarra.
The outfit was edgy, daring, and perfectly accessorized. Washington wore the three pieces with strappy sandals, silver jewelry, a short bob haircut, and vibrant red lipstick.

She wore a sleeveless, sharply structured Valentino gown. It had a full skirt that hovered above the ground, statement stitching, and pockets on each side of the dress.
Erivo wore it with platform heels and cream-colored gloves that extended over the elbow.

She wore a white Iris van Herpen dress with sheer panels and a scale-like pattern. The garment was handmade and looked more like an art piece than a traditional red-carpet gown.
She wore the piece with two rings and simple black sandals.

Celine designed her showstopping dress, which had an open back that plunged to her hips and crystal-covered shoulder straps.
It was also daring across its bodice, where the gown had a deep neckline and thin, sparkling slits.
The dress made for an ensemble that was equally daring and chic.
