Julia Roberts has delivered countless unforgettable Golden Globes moments over the years, but her appearance at the 83rd ceremony still managed to surprise even seasoned red carpet watchers. At first glance, her look felt timeless and elegant. A closer look revealed a playful detail no one saw coming.
Roberts arrived at the Beverly Hilton in a glamorous floor-length gown defined by structured shoulders, a plunging neckline, and a skirt that skimmed the red carpet with classic Hollywood ease. The silhouette alone would have been enough. Then the camera zoomed in.
Resting against her chest was a sparkling strawberry pendant, crafted from Swarovski crystals and suspended on a delicate gold chain. The unexpected accessory immediately became the focal point of the look, adding a whimsical twist to an otherwise traditional gown. Whether the strawberry carried deeper meaning or was simply a bold styling choice remains unclear, but it brought undeniable charm to the evening.
The detail didn’t stop there. Roberts leaned fully into the theme, pairing the necklace with strawberry-shaped earrings and a matching ring. Even her manicure followed suit, finished in a rich red shade that tied the entire look together. It was playful, deliberate, and impossible to ignore.
Her signature Hollywood waves framed her face perfectly, and her megawatt smile did the rest. In a sea of dramatic gowns and heavy diamonds, the strawberries stood out as one of the night’s most memorable style moments.
Roberts attended the ceremony with her husband, Danny Moder, and the night carried professional significance as well. She is nominated for Best Actress in a Motion Picture — Drama for her performance in After the Hunt.
The story follows a Yale philosophy professor whose carefully ordered world starts to fracture when her most gifted pupil, played by Ayo Edebiri, makes a shocking allegation against one of the professor’s closest allies and fellow academics, portrayed by Andrew Garfield. As loyalties are tested and truths blur, the film unfolds as a gripping psychological drama, now available to stream on Amazon Prime Video.
The field is crowded with formidable performances, with Julia Roberts up against a powerhouse lineup that includes Jennifer Lawrence for Die My Love, Jessie Buckley for Hamnet, Tessa Thompson for Hedda, Renate Reinsve for Sentimental Value, and Eva Victor for Sorry, Baby.
Awards aside, Roberts once again reminded everyone why she remains a red carpet icon. With one unexpected accessory choice, she turned elegance into conversation — and proved that sometimes, the smallest details leave the strongest impression.
