Selena Gomez’s style has been capturing attention lately, marking a significant shift towards bolder, more eclectic choices.
At the 2024 Governors Awards, held on November 17, Gomez took a daring step into menswear territory, showcasing a striking look that merged feminine touches with gothic influences.
The star donned a breathtaking floor-length beaded gown from Ralph Lauren that cleverly emulated the classic elements of a tuxedo. This intricate design featured a preppy mock neck collar accompanied by matching white cuffs, complete with black cuff links that beautifully contrasted the all-black fabric of the gown.

Incorporating a darkly romantic element into her attire, Gomez’s gown served as a nod to the Addams Family’s iconic character, Wednesday Addams, infusing a playful yet sophisticated goth vibe into the evening’s festivities.
While the dress leaned towards a preppy goth style, Gomez’s accessories reflected a contrasting opulence synonymous with old Hollywood glamour. Her hair, styled in a chic ballerina bun reminiscent of a wet hair look, was complemented by a deep side part.
The style allowed her stunning Boucheron diamond earrings—designed to resemble bedazzled feathers—to shine brightly, capturing the gaze of fellow attendees.

Each accessory played its part in elevating the gothic aesthetic to new heights of elegance and sophistication.
