Let me tell you, folks, when Glenn Close walked the red carpet at the 2019 Oscars, she didn’t just show up—she made a statement. Dressed in a jaw-dropping gold Carolina Herrera gown that weighed a staggering 42 pounds, Glenn wasn’t kidding around. And let’s not forget the over four million beads that adorned this masterpiece, adding even more flair and sparkle to her look. That’s what I call making an entrance!
Now, at 71 years young, Glenn wasn’t just there to dazzle us with her fashion choices. She was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role for her role in The Wife. Unfortunately, the award went to Olivia Colman for The Favourite. But here's the thing—had Glenn won, she would’ve had the ultimate twinning moment with the golden statuette because, let’s face it, she looked like the Oscar itself in that radiant gold gown!
Glenn Close’s Golden Look
It wasn’t just the weight and the beads that made this dress special. The ensemble featured a tuxedo-like bodice, long sleeves, and a glittery cape, giving it a modern yet timeless appeal. The dress was a true work of art, and it was clear that Glenn had put a lot of thought into her choice for the evening. It’s not every day you see someone rocking a 42-pound dress with such elegance and grace!

Red Carpet Drama
Before the 91st Academy Awards began, Glenn took to the red carpet to show off her stunning gown. When Ryan Seacrest invited her for an interview, she wisely asked her agent, Kevin Huvane, to help her navigate the stairs due to the weight and complexity of the gown. “Be careful coming down!” Ryan cautioned, and who could blame him? That gown was no joke!
Glenn Close’s Award Season Success
While Glenn didn’t take home the Oscar that night, her award season was nothing short of remarkable. She had already won accolades at the Golden Globes, the SAG Awards, the Independent Spirit Awards, and the Critics’ Choice Awards. It’s safe to say that Glenn Close is a force to be reckoned with in Hollywood.
