- The 2026 BAFTA Film Awards were held at the Royal Festival Hall in London on Sunday.
- Chase Infiniti and Michael B. Jordan were among the stars who wore standout red-carpet looks.
- Other celebrities missed the mark with their outfits, including Kirsten Dunst.
The biggest film stars of the year gathered in London on Sunday to celebrate the big screen.
Celebrities, along with the Prince and Princess of Wales, attended the BAFTA Film Awards at the Royal Festival Hall in London, where "One Battle After Another" and "Hamnet" took home top awards.
There were plenty of stylish looks on the red carpet, but there were also some lackluster fashion moments.
Take a look at the best and worst outfits celebrities wore to the 2026 BAFTAs.
Chase Infiniti's gravity-defying skirt elevated her strapless gown.
The "One Battle After Another" nominee made her BAFTA debut in a maroon Louis Vuitton gown.
The strapless dress hugged her figure before flaring at the knee, creating the illusion that her skirt was floating around her ankles.
Coordinating pumps and De Beers jewelry, including bejeweled dangly earrings, completed her avant-garde ensemble.
The fabric of Jessie Buckley's gown didn't suit the silhouette.
Buckley, who won a BAFTA for her performance in "Hamnet," walked the red carpet in a bright-blue Chanel gown that was custom-designed by Matthieu Blazy.
The gown cinched at Buckley's waist and dipped in the back, flowing into a column-style, floor-length skirt. Silver brooches sat on each of her shoulders for a touch of glamour.
The silhouette was pretty and evoked a Grecian feel, but the dress was made of heavy velvet. The silhouette and fabric didn't look right together, and the dress may have popped more on the red carpet if it had been made of something like chiffon instead.
Buckley's costar Paul Mescal and his girlfriend Gracie Abrams looked effortlessly chic on the red carpet.
Mescal and Abrams made their red-carpet debut as a couple in style at the BAFTAs.
Mescal, who was nominated for best supporting actor for "Hamnet," wore a Prada suit. His jacket was unbuttoned, he wore no tie, and his shirt cuffs were folded over for a relaxed look.
Abrams also wore black, choosing a Chanel gown. Her dress was adorned with sparkly embellishments, with the neckline trimmed with green beading and the gown itself adorned with fish.
Their stylish outfits went well together, but didn't feel too matchy-matchy.
Michael B. Jordan's charcoal jacket was the star of his look.
Nominated for his performance in "Sinners," Jordan wore a Prada suit to the BAFTAs.
His double-breasted, charcoal jacket had padded, pointed shoulders. Jordan paired it with a black blouse, black tie, and slim-fitting black pants.
A silver brooch brought a touch of glamour to the tailored suit.
Kirsten Dunst's pink jacket overpowered the rest of her ensemble.
Dunst arrived at the awards show in a Valentino ensemble. The look included a white blouse, a black skirt with a cutout on the waist, strappy black heels, and a pink jacket.
Her jacket featured voluminous, bubbled sleeves and thick lapels on either side of its opening for a dramatic look.
There were pretty elements to the outfit, but the jacket distracted from them. She may have looked more stylish on the red carpet if she had just left the jacket at home.
The dramatic cutout on Renate Reinsve's gown made it stand out.
Reinsve attended the BAFTAs in a Louis Vuitton gown.
The strapless, black gown had a cutout on one side of the bodice, leaving her torso exposed in a triangle shape. The skirt flowed to the ground and into a subtle train. A silver choker sat on her neck, completing the simple but beautiful outfit.
The actor, who was nominated for her performance in "Sentimental Value," wore one of the most fashionable looks of the night.
