Rita Ora is trying to make straitjackets chic

Rita Ora’s a risk taker, which always wins you more style points than playing it safe, even when you commit a minor fashion crime like this one. Is her look a tad too avant-garde for everyday wear, or are sanitorium-breakout vibes going to be the next big thing? That was a rhetorical question, and you’ll understand why when you see her head-to-toe outfit down below.

  Ally Brooke

  In this outfit, Ally looks less like the front-and-center star she really is and more like a background dancer. This is the outfit of someone who needs to be on par with the lead singer, but can’t stand out too much, and girl, you deserve to stand out. Getty Images

• Mel B

  Is that an anthropomorphic half-zested lemon? Oh, no it’s just Mel. These citrusy sequins are not a good choice, and the fact that it’s in the form of a wrap dress with random floral accents takes it to a whole other level of awful. This dress puts a sour taste in your mouth. Getty Images

• Natalie Portman

  More sequins! While Natalie’s champagne gown is a much better choice colour-wise, the silver lining to the neck and cuffs are a touch too much. And then on top of that are the bubbly shoulders, which are a little too round to have that 80’s power-suit vibe that they’re going for.Getty Images

• Tyra Banks

  Looks like Tyra is in a sequined state of mind too. While this outfit is a little less off-the-wall than Mel’s, it suffers from a bad case of basicness. How many girls wear something just like this to the club on New Year’s? Tyra is way better than this. Getty Images

• Rita Ora

  Rita’s straitjacket looks to be a few dozen sizes too large. While she looks super sleek in those shades and over-the-knee boots, her top/dress is just a nonsensical jumble of fabric and straps. It’s times like these when the deconstructed trend goes too far.Getty Images

• Dakota Fanning

  Dakota looks truly ageless, in large part because this dress could be worn by a tween or the mother of the bride. The daisy pattern is quite cute, but this dress doesn’t look like it fits particularly well, and the slight ruching in the middle of the bust is very outdated. Getty Images

• Bella Hadid

  On the other hand, we have the exact opposite of timeless, because this look could not be any more 2018. Bella is a total trendsetter, which is amazing, but if there is any hope for future generations, this had better be the last time anyone tries this hairstyle. Getty Images

• Cate Blanchett

  On anybody else, this dress could be a win, but the pieces Cate usually chooses have a cool-girl atmosphere that it just doesn’t have. It’s sweet enough, but compared to Cate’s usual style, it seems boring and old-fashioned. Getty Images

• Kylie Minogue

  This fabric is totally something Queen Ravenna from Snow White and the Huntsman would wear. Unfortunately, the liquid-mirror material is being wasted on this silhouette. Keeping it minimal was a good move, but the cut of this dress is something everyone’s seen a million times before.Getty Images

• Chloe Sevigny

  Chloe has such a unique sense of style, and usually it’s something that everyone can appreciate, even if you wouldn’t wear it yourself. That’s was makes it so unique. This dress, however, looks like a little girl’s birthday dress crossed with a lampshade. Getty Images

• John C. Reilly

  Good for John for dressing somewhat in theme for the photocall for his latest film, the western The Sisters Brothers. That said, this yellowy beige is the wooooorst. Sand is not a great colour for a three-piece suit, and especially when it has these strange stripes.Getty Images

• Dua Lipa

  These disco-ball Alberta Ferretti separates are kind of fun, but in a costume-y way. In a “let’s see if I can make an outfit by wrapping these bolts of fabric I had lying around” way. Dua’s shoes are super cool, but the rest of this look doesn’t have any of her street-style chill-ness.Getty Images

• Isla Fisher

  The idea behind Isla’s dress should be a recipe for success, but the messy execution of the ruffles at the bust keeps it (and Isla) from reaching its full potential. The skirt is meticulously crafted, so it’s a shame that the ruffles up top didn’t seem to get the same attention to detail. Getty Images

• Jenna Coleman

  This is like if there was a parallel universe where the trends of the seventies collided with what people thought was futuristic… in the seventies. The gold arm bands and collar bone cut-outs are just plain odd, but the carpet-like fabric is even worse. Getty Images

• Olivia Munn

  Another day, another PJ set. Maybe it’s the business of the pattern, or maybe it’s missing the shine of silk, but this take on the slumber-party outerwear trend doesn’t look quite as fancy as it should. As actual PJs they’re super chic, but at a premiere they’re pretty lackluster. Getty Images

• Shailene Woodley

  This suit is almost a perfect look for Shailene. It’s sophisticated yet effortless. Where it all goes haywire is with the boots, or rather the fact that you can see all of them. These wide-leg pants are meant to overlap your footwear, not cut off abruptly at the ankles. Getty Images

• Tilda Swinton

  This week Tilda rocked three totally different red-carpet looks, and they couldn’t all be winners. This one shoots to the bottom of the list because of the matching gloves and the way they look against the inexplicably wide sleeves. Why, Tilda? Why? Getty Images
