Young Hollywood has been pretty obsessed with floral headbands for some time now -- Mischa Barton even started her own line! But nothing Mischa could even dream of would touch the amazingly arranged and over-the-top pieces shown at "Tulips and Pansies: The Headdress Affair," an annual event that joins top designers from the worlds of fashion and flowers to collaborate on headpieces made from living plants and flowers. The result? A runway show like none other.

This year's event took place on May 14th at The Edison Ballroom in New York City and benefited Village Care of New York (a non-profit that helps people living with HIV/AIDS). If you're as obsessed with this whimsical living art as we are (and really, how could you not be?), head over to AOL Home to see more fabulous (and watering-can worthy) creations.

We love Christina Hendricks, in all of her sexy babiliciousness and glory. Watching her strut across the offices of Sterling Cooper makes us want to rush out for some hardcore vintage shopping and a box of red hair dye.

Worst Oscar styles EVER: Cher, 1986

Email thisPosted Feb 21st 2008 at 4:54PM by Kristen Seymour

Filed under: Celebrities with Style, Red Carpet Trends

Cher and Bob Mackie are a match made in kooky, crazy, red carpet fashion fashion heaven. Or hell. It's a toss-up. But that's nothing new -- she has sported a number of, well, unusual ensembles to awards shows over the years.

At the 1986 Academy Awards, Cher showed up in full glory sporting this costume (I call it a costume because how many gowns come with a crazy headdress like this? And is that a cape?).

Other than the obvious first question, which would be a startled "What the ...?" the next question has to be, "How is that skirt staying up?" But you have to hand it to her -- she looks totally composed while wearing it, a feat I'm sure most women would not be able to pull off, no matter how phenomenal her acting chops might be.
