Hollywood stars Margot Robbie, Nicole Kidman, Halle Berry and Allison Williams chose shimmering, sequinned gowns for the Screen Actors Guild awards after a Golden Globes ceremony dominated by black.

Kidman, who won a gong for her role as a domestic violence victim in Big Little Lies, opted for an Armani bronze sequinned gown with a large shoulder embellishment.

Her co-star Allison Janney, who won the best supporting actress prize for playing Harding’s mother, selected a metallic silver gown with a high neck, long sleeves and dramatic shoulders.

Halle Berry, who served as a presenter, opted for a bronze sequinned gown with a dark train by Pamella Roland.

Other stars who opted for sequins included Get Out star Allison Williams, who wore a white and silver Ralph & Russo dress with a tiered, fringed skirt.

British star Millie Bobby Brown, who was nominated for her role as Eleven in Stranger Things, chose a pale pink knee-length sequinned dress with a long train and teamed it with white Converse trainers.

Susan Sarandon, nominated for her performance as Bette Davis in Feud: Bette and Joan, chose a navy blue, sequinned, off-the-shoulder dress teamed with statement sunglasses.

She arrived at the ceremony with her Thelma and Louise co-star Geena Davis, who opted for a black strapless gown.

There was also plenty of colour on the red carpet as The Good Place star Kristen Bell, who served as the first-ever host of the show, opted for a dark pink strapless gown to make her entrance.

Reese Witherspoon, who was also nominated for Big Little Lies, opted for an off-the-shoulder green dress by Zac Posen.

Holly Hunter, who was nominated in the supporting actress category at the ceremony for her role in comedy The Big Sick, chose a gold gown with deep pockets.

Alison Brie, who was nominated in the leading actress in a TV comedy category for her Netflix series GLOW, appeared to be inspired by her female wrestler character as she opted for a red asymmetric gown with a thigh-high split and purple lightning bolt detail as she arrived with husband Dave Franco.

This Is Us star Chrissy Metz, who was nominated as part of the best ensemble in a drama series category, also opted for a bold colour.

The actress chose a blue floor-length gown with flower embellishments on one shoulder and across the front.

It was the same shade of cobalt blue chosen by her co-stars Susan Kelechi Watson and Mandy Moore.

This Is Us won the gong for best ensemble in a TV drama at the ceremony.
