Lady Gaga, Kerry Washington and Ariana DeBose were among the stars bringing a burst of colour to the red carpet as awards season kicked off with the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) awards.
Hollywood stars marked the return of red carpet fashion, after a long stint of largely virtual ceremonies, with eye-catching gowns.
