    The NME awards are notorious for eccentric fashion choices, but none of them could compare to the outfit "created" by "music artist" La Roux. Wow.

    Naomi's extra-long gown at the Vanity Fair Oscar afterparty seemed familiar. So we checked and, sure enough, we had seen it before -- on Daryl Hannah in the 1984 hit movie Splash!!

    Michelle Monaghan sports an orange Louis Vuitton dress with a sequined side cut out. And tulle. And net. And mesh. And matching LV shoes with feathers. Will it ever stop?

    Keira Knightley's smug expression is just begging us to judge this outfit that's somehow too small and too big at the same time.

    We just have two questions: Why is Tilda Swinton wearing the human flesh dress made by serial killer Buffalo Bill in Silence of the Lambs? And couldn't she at least have it tailored to fit her?

    Neither the color green nor those unfortunate shoulder pads are helping Jennifer Connelly look any healthier on the red carpet -- girl needs to eat!

    Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, went pattern crazy while playing with the puppies at the Metropolitan Police Dog Training Centre in Cornwall, UK.

    Up-and-coming Australian actress Teresa Palmer is drop-dead gorgeous. The shiny hair, the bright, expressive eyes, the thin-but-not-scary-skinny body ... she seems to have the whole package. Except, maybe, for the whole dressing for the red carpet part.

    The thing is, we love the fit of this dress -- it's super flattering and classy. And Teresa shines in light colors, so the white and beige is beautiful. But seriously, what is the deal with the beige bra cups?

    Should we get past the weird boob accessories since we love the rest of the look so much? Or are those a deal breaker?

    Of course Teresa isn't the only celeb who suffers from the occasional red carpet flop. Scarlett Johansson clearly has her off days.

    Oversized gold coat, check. High waisted pants that are way more frumpy than fashionable, check. What the heck was Scarlett Johansson thinking when she wore this outfit to the photocall for The Spirit in Madrid? This outfit is old lady-ish, and not in the sometimes hip Mary-Kate Olsen kind of way.

Filed under: Vintage and Retro

Worst dressed celebrities of the year

Filed under: Celebrities with Style

InTouch did a reader poll to find out which female celebrity deserves the title of Worst Fashion Offender of the year. Obviously the Olsen twins won. Is anyone really surprised by that?

But, there were a few shockers too. Victoria Beckham was on the list. Personally, I think she dresses well. Her style isn't all that original, but it's certainly not bad enough to be considered offensive!

Anyways, the rundown goes like this: Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen, Courtney Love, Sharon Stone, Victoria Beckham, Tilda Swinton, Lindsay Lohan, Amy Winehouse. Let's discuss.

Courtney Love and Sharon Stone are basically permanent hot messes. All in favor of their placement on the list say, "Ay." AY!!!!

Lindsay Lohan has long since worn out the welcome of leggings as part of fashion. They were cute for about a minute, when properly placed underneath long tunic tops or short dresses -- not as pants.

Amy Winehouse constantly looks dirty and drugged, so I think it's safe to say she probably doesn't even realize what she's wearing half the time. I feel like we can't hold her responsible for the horrible fashion choices she has made.

Tilda Swinton isn't enough of a Hollywood player to be on this list (and I do mean fashion wise, because I realize she's an amazing actress). Sure, her Oscar dress was bad. Really bad. But, aside from that can you actually remember any other outfit she's worn to any other event? I doubt it.

The choice of Victoria Beckham totally confuses me, but I already said that. And, as for the Olsen twins, love 'em or hate 'em, they always keep people in the fashion world talking.

Do you disagree or agree with the women on this list?

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?
