SAG awards dress code: Black-Tie attire will take center stage
The 2025 SAG Awards will require all attendees to adhere to a formal black-tie dress code, a stark contrast to 2024’s fiery red theme. Floor-length gowns, tuxedos, and polished accessories might dominate the carpet, with organizers emphasizing classic Hollywood sophistication. The move will align with Netflix’s push for a polished broadcast aesthetic.
Attendees must adhere to heightened security protocols, including mandatory photo ID checks at entry points. To maintain professionalism, union officials have banned photo/autograph requests during the event. While cell phones are permitted, personal cameras and recording devices will be confiscated, a policy that drew mixed reactions last year when multiple influencers faced rejection for unauthorized filming.
