Naked covered in a beaded curtain you hang over your doorway in your dorm room. Just no.
Brie Larson:
Missed the mark in a Prada ensemble that looked like a last-minute choice, not living up to the gala’s glamorous expectations. #mehatbest
Queen Latifah:
Overwhelmed by an opera coat that swallowed her stunning presence, turning what could have been fab into drab.
Dia Lupa:
A chaotic mix of lacy tablecloth vibes paired with a corset that made her look more tossed salad than tossed couture. #wwwhhyyyyyyy
Serena Williams:
Faced a style setback in a Balenciaga piece that was a fashion miss, more than a fashion hit. #punintended
The Worst: Lizzo
In a see-through dress with a headpiece that made her look like she was wearing a lampshade. Literally, she was wearing a cone of shame.
