I don’t normally comment on who wore what at events anymore because I don’t want to judge others, but after seeing some of the Grammy outfits this year I have to wonder what has happened to good taste.
Clothes are a great way to look better – to accentuate the good parts and hide the bad bits. Clothes also help to empower, entice and protect – they communicate who we are and who we want to be. There was a lot of flack over Lady Gaga’s tiny muffin top at the Super Bowl Halftime show – not really worth even mentioning, although I wonder why she didn’t wear something cut a smidgen higher to begin with – that is what clothes are for. So I have to wonder what these people were thinking when they put on their outfits…
Costume ball?:
-
- Gumball machine
-
- Miss CD 1995
-
- Ferrero Rocher chocolate
Oh alright.. I’ll go, but I’m wearing something comfortable:
-
- Stealing a bathrobe and towel from the hotel?
-
- Blue satin men’s pyjama’s?
-
- Making no effort on the left and too much effort on the right
It worked then, so I am going to wear it again:
-
- 17 years later wearing another version of that famous green dress
-
- 17 years later, trying to copy J-Lo’s famous green dress, but with shoulder pads!
-
- Mother of the bride c. 1991
I think I have seen this before:
-
- Seen it — yawn
-
- Ann Margret in Vegas?
-
- Versace c. 1994?
I have a ton of money and no taste:
-
- Don’t know who made this one but it was obviously expensive because she couldn’t afford shoes or a trip to the hairdresser as well…
-
- Tom Ford miss
-
- Shame on you Gucci
What occasion is this for again?:
-
- Porn Awards (note that Lady Gaga wears higher cut shorts this time to disguise the muffin top…)
-
- Meeting friends for lunch?
-
- Republican convention or inaugural ball – but the Grammy’s?
Bathrobe guy’s partner is wearing a good dress, though – big thumbs up for that, it’s really chic and follows the golden rule of showing off just one part in extremis, while keeping the rest under covers.
I like the dress too, although I didn’t think her shoes needed that extra touch of colour – the dress already had a LOT to say! Regardless, she wasn’t the problem!
