Oscar Coverage: Worst dressed - Tilda Swinton

Filed under: Red Carpet Trends





Tilda Swinton is a great actress! So I don't get why she always wears totally insane outfits to award shows. She should know how to work the red carpet by now, but for some reason she insists on dressing in the most unflattering clothing that she can get hands on.

This year, Tilda's unflattering outfit of choice is what looks like a giant velvet trash bag. She did get the memo that one shoulder is in, unfortunately, she took it one step further and went with just one sleeve. Her poor left arm must be cold with all the wind and almost rain going on today!

And I'm pretty sure she doesn't realize that she's at the freaking Oscars! I understand the need to look natural. I have no problem with ladies who aren't girly and into wearing tons of making. But you just cannot go completely barefaced to the Oscars. Hilda, you are at the biggest event of the year. A little bit of lip gloss never hurt anyone. And would it have killed you to smile?
