Red Carpet Fashion at Variety's Power of Young Hollywood 2026
Celebrities from music, film, television, and social media gathered to celebrate their influence at Variety’s annual Power of Young Hollywood event.
Last night, young celebrities in LA brought their most elegant fashion A-game to the red carpet. Stars showcased a variety of trends that have been impacting both red carpets and street style throughout 2026. Vibrant hues like pistachio green and tomato red were seen on Madison Beer and Olandria Carthen, while all-black looks with lingerie-inspired details were opted for by Kiernan Shipka, Inde Navarette, and others. This season’s top shoe styles were also present, ranging from sophisticated pumps to delicate slip-on mules and kitten heels. The night’s hairstyles featured siren-inspired waves, undone curls, and ponytails, while dark, lined, and concealer-covered lips were popular finishing touches.\n\nMadison Beer, fresh from her engagement to football star Justin Herbert, hit the red carpet in a custom minidress version of a Geyanna Youness gown. The pistachio-hued piece featured a fluttery hem and plunging neckline, which she matched with slip-on mules. Kiernan Shipka perfected summer’s lace trend in a black minidress from Roberto Cavalli, paired with floral Calzedonia tights and classic pumps. Inde Navarette slipped on a black dress with a lace bodice and sheer corset, complemented by matching platforms and Cartier pendant necklaces. Tate McRae went for a strapless black Versace dress from the brand’s Spring 1998 collection to accept the night’s Triple Threat Award, adding blue sandals with thong straps and low heels for a burst of color. Olandria Carthen never feared a statement look – as evidenced by her bright red dress made with allover floral embroidery, creating a lacey effect.\n\nThe event honored singer Tate McRae, actor Tyriq Withers, and more for their cultural contributions this year. The evening’s hairstyles featured siren-inspired waves, undone curls, and ponytails, while dark, lined, and concealer-covered lips were popular finishing touches. Young Hollywood understood the assignment when it came to trending beauty looks.\n\nThe best red carpet looks from the special night can be seen in the accompanying images.
