Shailene Woodley returned to the Emmy Awards red carpet in Los Angeles for the first time in nearly a decade, but her appearance quickly became one of the most talked-about moments online.
The actress attended the 2026 ceremony outside the Peacock Theater wearing a high-fashion Balenciaga ensemble designed by the brand’s creative director, Pierpaolo Piccioli.
Her outfit featured a light-blue, high-neck top paired with wide-leg gold trousers covered in crystals and sequins.
While the look was designed as a bold fashion statement, it received a wave of criticism and mixed reactions online, with some social media users going as far as calling it one of the worst looks of the evening.
Woodley arrived at the ceremony as a newly crowned Emmy winner. She took home the award for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama Series for her role as Annie, a former tour guide at Graceland, in Hulu’s series “Paradise.”
