Hello fashion lovers! ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ’„

As much as we love to look up to celebrities for fashion inspiration, there are moments when we cringe at their outfit choices and wonder, โ€œWhat were they thinking?โ€ In this blog, we will take a look at some of the biggest fashion snubs and wins from celebrities, and the context behind each choice.

Letโ€™s dive in! ๐ŸŒŠ

The Met Gala: Best and Worst Dressed

The Met Gala is an annual fundraising event for the Metropolitan Museum of Artโ€™s Costume Institute, and is known for its extravagant fashion moments. While some celebrities brought their A-game, others missed the mark completely.

๐Ÿ‘ Best Dressed: Rihanna ๐Ÿ‘—๐Ÿ‘‘ Rihanna never disappoints and her 2018 Met Gala look was no exception. She channeled the theme, โ€œHeavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination,โ€ wearing an intricately beaded, jewel-encrusted Maison Margiela ensemble complete with a matching mitre hat.

๐Ÿ‘Ž Worst Dressed: Katy Perry ๐Ÿ‘”๐Ÿ™…๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ Katy Perryโ€™s 2019 Met Gala look was definitely one of the most talked-about, but not in a good way. Her Moschino gown and burger-shaped clutch missed the mark on the theme, โ€œCamp: Notes on Fashion.โ€ Instead, it left people feeling confused and unimpressed.

Red Carpet Fashion Faux Pas

The red carpet is a place where celebrities showcase their best fashion choices, but of course, there are always those who missed the memo.

๐Ÿ‘ Fashion Win: Lupita Nyongโ€™o ๐Ÿ‘—๐ŸŒŸ Lupita Nyongโ€™o slayed the 2014 Academy Awards red carpet in a powder blue Prada gown that was embellished with pearls and a deep V-neckline. The dress was unforgettable and landed the โ€œ12 Years a Slaveโ€ actress on multiple best-dressed lists.

๐Ÿ‘Ž Fashion Snub: Bjรถrkโ€™s swan dress ๐Ÿ‘—๐Ÿฆข In 2001, Bjรถrk showed up to the Oscars wearing a swan dress by Macedonian designer Marjan Pejoski. The dress has gone down in history as one of the most memorable fashion faux pas, as it led to a media frenzy and became a punchline for many jokes.

Celebrity Style Icons

As much as we love seeing fashion snubs and wins, there are also celebrities who consistently impress us with their style choices.

๐Ÿ‘‘ Style Icon: Zendaya ๐Ÿ‘—๐Ÿ’• Zendaya has become one of the biggest style icons of her generation. She consistently slays on the red carpet, and it pays off, as she has been named to numerous โ€œbest dressedโ€ lists. Her style is consistently fresh, unique, and daring.

๐Ÿ’„ Style Icon: Sarah Jessica Parker ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘— While Sarah Jessica Parkerโ€™s โ€œSex and the Cityโ€ character, Carrie Bradshaw, is known for her fashion-forward outfits, Parker has continued to impress with her real-life fashion choices as well. She always adds an unexpected twist to her outfits, and pushes boundaries with her accessories.

Conclusion

At the end of the day, fashion is a form of self-expression, and while we may not always agree with celebritiesโ€™ outfit choices, itโ€™s important to remember that fashion is subjective. Whether itโ€™s a hit or miss, the impact of a celebrityโ€™s outfit choice can have a lasting effect on the industry and fashion enthusiasts alike.
