Los Angeles - From flowing gowns to

tailored tuxedos, Hollywood's film and television stars dressed

in their finest black on the Golden Globes red carpet on Sunday

in solidarity with the Time's Up campaign to fight sexual

harassment in the workplace.

Jessica Chastain, Laura Dern and Natalie Portman led female

and male nominees as well as attendees dressed in black at the

awards show where the sexual harassment scandal roiling

Hollywood is expected to dominate the conversation.

"We're here for the Time's Up movement. Octavia (Spencer) is

my date - girl power! We stand in solidarity against any abuse

of power," Chastain, nominated for "Molly's Game" and wearing a

black velvet gown with a silver sequined back, said in a

televised interview with NBC on the red carpet.

"It's about people who are voiceless, and it's about

empowerment," added Spencer, who is nominated for "Shape of

Water."

In the week leading up to the awards ceremony, more than 300

Hollywood industry figures including actors, directors and

writers, launched the Time's Up campaign to address workplace

sexual harassment misconduct.

Portman, who joined Instagram in the past week to promote

awareness of Time's Up, opted for a black velvet dress and

accompanied a pregnant America Ferrera, wearing a black sequined

dress with a tuxedo jacket, on the carpet.

"It's an incredible opportunity to get to go with a friend,

an activist, someone who can have our voices together because

we've been separated for so long ... and how much louder and

stronger our voices can be when we come together," Portman said.

Dern, in a strapless black gown, was accompanied by Monica

Ramirez, the co-founder and president of the National Farmworker

Women's Alliance (Alianza Nacional De Campesinas), which

represents more than 700,000 women working in the agricultural

industry, fighting workplace sexual misconduct.

"It's time for us to make a difference," Dern said.
