Skylar Diggins-Smith, the WNBA star, ignited the red carpet at the 2026 Golden Globes, turning heads with a show-stopping gown. This wasn't just any dress; it was a statement, a dazzling display that perfectly complemented her role as an ambassador for Saratoga Water, the event's official water sponsor.
Her attire was nothing short of spectacular. The custom-fit, glitter-infused creation featured a daring, sky-high slit and an off-the-shoulder design, all brought together by a dramatic train that subtly echoed Saratoga Water's signature cobalt blue. A sophisticated up-do completed the glamorous look.
Saratoga Water, founded in Saratoga Springs, New York, has become increasingly trendy. Their Instagram post on January 12th, captured the essence of the moment: "Let every occasion be defined by taste."
Diggins-Smith's own Instagram post was simple, yet elegant: "83rd Golden Globes," accompanied by a list of fashion credits.
Saratoga Water's comment on her post, "Just a sparkling moment at the Globes. No notes. 😉 We’re lucky to partner with the best 💙✨," perfectly encapsulated the sentiment. Fans were quick to share their admiration. One fan raved, "[I’m] actually gonna need a couple business days to process how good she looks." Another added, "At this point, what do we even say!? Queen Sky 👑👑👑." A third fan exclaimed, "Perfection 🔥🔥🔥 LOVEEEEEEE it Sky!!!! Shut it down tonight."
But here's where it gets controversial... The dress, while undeniably stunning, sparked a debate: Did it overshadow the event itself? Or did it perfectly enhance the glamour of the Golden Globes?
On Saratoga Water's page, the dress's bright blue accent was a hit. Fans clamored for Saratoga-themed merchandise, with one commenting, "Honestly! I need a Saratoga jacket 💙💙 just because." The brand responded enthusiastically, "We love the way you think! 💙." Other comments included, "💧💙The cobalt blue is so enchanting! 💙💧" and "Love Saratoga water! Elegance is in the color and the Name💙."
