SAG Awards 2026 Worst Dressed: Jenna Ortega, Emma Stone, Yerin Ha and others miss the glam mark

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: The 32nd SAG Awards 2026 took over the Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall in Los Angeles on Sunday, March 1, with Kristen Bell hosting. While the night celebrated the year’s best in film and television, the red carpet turned heads, sometimes for all the wrong reasons.

Amid the glitter and glamour, some outfits left critics and fans doing double takes, shaking their heads, and asking, “What were they thinking?” While the awards honor talent, the worst-dressed looks remind us that even stars can stumble spectacularly in style.

So, let’s dive straight into the top 10 red carpet disasters that dominated conversations this year, the outfits that had everyone talking, but for all the wrong reasons.

1. Sarah Pidgeon

Sarah Pidgeon’s pink Balenciaga look appears sweet from afar, but the drop waist screams “1920s prom,” not SAG glam. Her minimalist take misses the mark; it’s cute, but utterly wrong for the awards red carpet.

2. Odessa A’zion 

Odessa A’zion’s red carpet look is a hair disaster that rivals her signature curls. The 'Marty Supreme' star might have started a big-hair trend, but her dress looks like a tangled version of it, and it completely misses the mark.

3. Jessie Buckley

Jessie Buckley’s red carpet look is a major disappointment. The 'Hamnet' star and Best Female Actor in a Leading Role winner wore a white-and-black gown so plain it feels like one of the least interesting things she’s ever worn. 

4. Rhea Seehorn

Rhea Seehorn’s red carpet dress immediately brings kitchen tools to mind. The 'Pluribus' star and Female Actor in a Drama Series nominee can’t save the look, as the thick, heavy-looking fabric completely overwhelms her.

5. Yerin Ha 

The 'Bridgerton' star Yerin Ha took a bold turn on the red carpet, skipping a ballgown for pants, and we can respect that. But the top, with its deep-sea-creature vibes and awkward proportions, completely throws off the look.

6. Emma Stone

Emma Stone’s dress choice leaves us scratching our heads. The purple, long A-line gown has potential, but pairing it with an open-front cardigan completely ruins the red carpet vibe.

7. Jenna Ortega

The 'Wednesday' star Jenna Ortega’s dress looked almost forgivable from afar, but up close, the frayed skirt and artful tears push it into red carpet disaster territory. She may pull off boudoir vibes, but sexy with a hint of violence is a hard pass.

8. Amy Madigan

Amy Madigan’s coat-and-pants look might work elsewhere, but not at the SAG Awards. The black coat with the scarf detail screams James Bond vibes, and unfortunately, not everyone can pull off 007 on the red carpet. 

9. Michelle Monaghan

What on earth is Michelle Monaghan wearing? The black dress with a light coffee-brown underlayer just doesn’t work. It feels mismatched and easily earns a spot in the worst-dressed category. Even just the black top alone would have worked, but this combination completely misses the mark.

10. Li Jun Li

Li Jun Li had all the ingredients for a stunning look, but this red wine sequin dress misses the mark. From the front, it seems perfect, but the side bow tie ruins the glamour, and even the color can’t save it.
