10 Years of Celebrity Fashion Woes
Thanks to today’s highly paid personal stylists and other celeb handlers, our red carpet photo ops with our favorite media personalities are looking more and more picture perfect: stylish, glamorous ensembles with preciously matched accessories. In other words, BORING. But every once in a while, a star gets off the leash and sneaks out after mustering the audacity to (gasp) DRESS THEMSELVES. Here’s some delightful results of celebs thinking outside of the fashion box over the years:
“That’s so Raven” Raven Symone tries to interpret Afro-chic. Or something. Whoops she apparently forgot her trousers too.
Ah, the quirks of high fashion. This is Madonna in her Louis Vuitton muppet dress that she wore to a GUCCI event. Okay, firstly it’s not really appropriate wearing a competitor’s label to another’s event. And secondly… let’s just say some frocks that debut on the runway (or on Oscar the Grouch) are better left there.
We seriously long for the day where Amy Winehouse wakes up, looks in the mirror and say: “What the heck am I thinking?”. This chick should fix her hair, make up and clothes at least as often as she checks into rehab. Saying “No, no, no” all the time won’t help.
Swans everywhere hung their heads in shame when eccentric singer Bjork decided to wear one of their own as a cocktail dress.
Who can ever forget Dennis Rodman’s antics? Well we can’t and now you know why. Next!
Oh Jessica. You knew it was oh so wrong when you picked up the soccer mom jeans. But you couldn’t help yourself.
Mary Kate Olsen and her twin sister, Ashley, are hardcore fashion devotees and must have whole apartments devoted to wardrobe storage. But we think MK borrowed somebody else’s dress here. And that somebody is 14 sizes larger than she is.
Okay, don’t get us wrong. By no means we’re hating on Jennifer Hudson. Girl is sweet and talented. But this dress by Oscar de la Renta which she wore to the 2007 Oscars is clearly selected by some alien who longs to go back to his planet. J-Hud’s ugly silver phyton bolero is indeed distracting, and if you wanna know who forced her into this getup, well… he’s on our list too. Prepare yourself as we present the man who represents Vogue magazine… Andre Leon Talley.
Blue PVC, velour pants and matching bedroom slippers. Just what you want to wear in the front row of a runway show. Reminds us of Cookie Monster turned flasher. Next!
Meanwhile Sandra Oh, of Grey’s Anatomy, was in for this bow-wow look.
While we sorta like the Korean-inspired dress, we do have a problem with the bow. No good, Sandra. Next!
We love Mariah Carey. Love HER we say.
Rose McGowan in a chain metal dress but forgot to put on the actual dress.
Renee Zellweger looks like she just rolled out of bed. And whatever happened to satin lining… or black bras?
So embarrassing when you come back from the ladies room strutting your stuff, oblivious to the toilet paper stuck to your behind. Looks like Rihanna got the seat cover caught too.
Okay, a multiple choice problem now for you: Paula Abdul wants to be:
- An equestrian enthusiast
- A marching band leader
- A 5-star general of her imaginary army of fans
Stop the presses: “Pamela Anderson Covers Up Her Chest in Public”. Uh wait a minute…
Our girl Beyonce is always prim and proper. But this time, we hate her single glove. It’s tacky, it’s Michael Jackson-ish and does it really deserve a pose on the red carpet? We don’t think so. Next!
Strong enough for a man… not strong enough for a hot sweaty mess aka Fantasia Barrino.
Okay, we love Katie Holmes. But we don’t really get what she’s trying for here. Does she want to be a red-carpet virgin or does she want to go wild?
We’re not hating Sarah Jessica Parker nor Lindsay Lohan nor that too pale socialite girl here, but we’re cursing the designer: Giambattista Valli for lending this supposedly great dress to 3 different high profile people to high profile events. Well, LiLo wore it for a video shoot, but still! This is a disgrace to the fashion world and although we don’t really hate it, we feel that this dress deserve to be on our list.
Katy Perry might love to kiss girls, but it’s obvious that she loves Christmas more. And in her case, we have to say that we agree with the song… Too Much Love Will Kill You, as Katy Perry committed fashion suicide onstage.
And last but not least, Ms. Imogen Heap and her spectacular getup that she wore to the Grammys. She claimed this monstrosity was designed by one of her fans. See, that’s why you get fans only to adore you. Not to dress you.

There are some pretty hideous outfits going on there. I'm not sure what Paula was trying to pull off there. Maybe a Pirate or a general from the American Revolutionary War?

I think some of these are bad, some are good. But anything is better then boring. Like Jessica Simpson. She put on a bit of weight, obviously. But high waist pants are certainly not mom jeans any longer. Suburban moms wear low rise boot cut jeans and high heeled boots. They have been scince 1999. At least Jess has finally stopped wearing boot cuts jeans.

And who care if three different women wore the same dress. In the real world millions of women wear the same stuff. Get over it. In fact get over the idea that you are funny. Most of these people know they look out there. You can't laugh at them if they are in charge of the joke. Just makes it look like you take yourself too seriously, and they don't.

OK. Madonna in the weird green Louis Vuitton thing. Now thats strange. verystrange, not to mention that it is tacky to wear that to a Gucci show. Plus its never good to be compared so directly to a fashion model. No matter what you look like they tend to look better. I now see what you mean.

these people have money and time to dress the way they believe they should dress, I just pay little or no attention to these starts and how they dress or want to dress, i have better things to do with my life, than to care what these stars or not. I dont care
