6 Celebrity Fashion Flops That Redefined the Meaning of 'Ridiculous'
Well, at least we can all learn their lesson.
For many years, Jennifer Lopez has stunned the public with her elaborate evening gowns, but at the premiere of the 2018 comedy film Second Act, the actress seemed to have lowered her bar for fashion and style as she put on the unusual childish design by Giambattista Valli.
The bubblegum-colored high-low gown, featuring a fluffy train made of layers and layers of tulle, was a bit too much even for the never-aging star. Lopez's figure was literally drowning in the massive hem, and the actress actually had to arrive at the event by bus — because the gown was too large to fit in a car.
The actress' iconic character Carrie Bradshaw is remembered for her impeccable style, but Sarah Jessica Parker has had her fashion slip-ups. One of them was in 2019, when the star arrived at the New York City Ballet Fall Fashion Gala wearing a voluminous Zac Posen gown: the fancy hot-pink dress distorted Parker's body proportions and made her look like a Pavlova dessert.
Nowadays, Rihanna prefers short dresses and skirts, but the singer's style used to be more conservative some years ago. At the 2015 Grammys, the star wore a Giambattista Valli dress, which she hoped would make her look taller. Instead, people made jokes about Rihanna's pink princess gown: the raised empire waistline and puffy multi-layered skirt made the singer look like a cake.
Dior's creative director Maria Grazia Chiuri created the iconic 1950s-inspired look for Elle Fanning, and the actress donned the outfit at the Cannes Festival in 2019. Unfortunately, the milky silk blouse with leg-of-mutton sleeves and pleated skirt, teamed with a black macramé hat, did not look particularly good on the actress: it appeared as if she borrowed the elegant retro set from her mother's wardrobe.
Sweet-voiced Ariana Grande tried on the modern-day Cinderella look for the 2020 Grammy Awards as she wore another splendid princess dress by Giambattista Valli. The stunning gray outfit was clearly too large for the singer, and Grande had trouble moving around in it during the night.
The fiery-red Dolce & Gabbana dress was Katy Perry's choice for a 2019 Christmas event. The singer was super excited to show off the corseted gown with a heart-shaped neckline and a puffed maxi-length skirt, paired with a cute beret, but critics thought the outfit was too bright, stealing all attention away from the star.
