Celebrities allocate a decent amount of time to prepping for the red carpet. From grooming to attending several wardrobe fittings, there’s a lot of prep that goes into attending such a glamorous event. Case in point: the red carpet look. Typically this is the part where a celebrity and stylist collaborate to find a perfect gown or jumpsuit for the highly documented moment. Between fittings and the final look, we’ve picked up on a few flattering style tricks that celebrities lean on when it comes to being photographed on the red carpet. Learn their secrets ahead.
