America Ferrera was the epitome of elegance as she stepped onto the red carpet at the 81st Annual Golden Globe Awards in Beverly Hills on Sunday.
The Barbie actress, 39 – who recently showed off her preparations for the special awards ceremony – joined other celebrities during the event at the Beverly Hilton Hotel, such as Taylor Swift and Margot Robbie.
The star flaunted her stunning figure wearing a fitted, silver gown that was made of a dazzling sequin material and contained floral embellishments throughout the material.
Her short, brunette locks were parted to the side, and curled into slight waves that almost brushed the tips of her shoulders.
She accessorized her look with a few dainty necklaces as well as dangly, silver rhinestone earrings.

America’s makeup was classically done, and comprised of a layer of mascara to her lashes as well as a shimmering, pink shadow around her eyes.
The Ugly Betty alum also added a light pink blush and highlighter to her cheekbones, while a glossy, rosy pink tint was worn on her lips for a finishing touch.
The beauty paused for a brief photo session as she stepped onto the red carpet, and was also joined by husband Ryan Piers Williams.
The actor was dressed to impress sporting a classic black suit which was paired with a white dress shirt as well as a black tie. To complete the look, he slipped into a pair of sleek, black shoes.
Ferrera and Williams notably tied the knot back in 2011, and share two children: Sebastian, five, and Lucia, three.

The hit movie – which notably garnered around a whopping $1.44 billion in the global box office – also received three nominations for Best Original Song.
America took on the role of Gloria in the film, who was an employee working at Mattel and ended up helping Barbie – played by Robbie.
She received a Critics’ Choice Movie Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress based on her portrayal of the character.
While talking to Elle late last year in November, Ferrera reflected on her career and what else she aims to achieve in terms of her career in the industry.
‘What I continue to wish for my career, and women’s careers and people of color’s careers, is that we don’t have to exist inside of these boxes or these lanes – that we don’t have to be relegated to represent just the thing that the culture wants us to represent.’
The actress added, ‘I want to be more of who I am as a person, and to get to make art that doesn’t fit into any of the boxes…’
‘And isn’t about the dominant conversation people have wanted to have about me because I’m a woman who doesn’t fit into stereotypical Hollywood,’ she continued.
Shortly before heading to the Golden Globes on Sunday, the mother-of-two jumped to her Instagram stories to give her fans a glimpse as she prepped for the big day.
