Once you see it on the red carpet, you realize that’s what this runway dress was meant to be: a major red carpet moment.

The angelic feather and the silk flowing skirt makes this feel more ethereal than naked dress. The perfect construction makes one forget that a wardrobe malfunction is even a possibility. 

Paul Mescal at the Oscars

The ’70s tuxedo with white jacket never looked as good as it did on Mescal. And the subtle mullet was the haircut of the year. 

And the worst…

The Rock at the Oscars

We know that The Rock is the most beloved man, so it pains us that in this satin peach jacket he’s looking more like a stuffed pillow from a Las Vegas honeymoon suite. Terrible.

Raise your hands if this look has shown up in your nightmares more than once. 

Florence Pugh at the Oscars

This is unfortunately what happens when you can’t settle on one concept. The result resembles Pugh getting caught in her comforter on the way out the door. 

Sam Smith at the Brit Awards

Rather than red carpet chic, this more closely resemble “The Incredibles” at a Halloween party. Not ideal. 

Heidi Klum at the Golden Globes

This would be a disqualifying dress for “Project Runway.”

Doja Cat is fearless; at times it pays off and at times, it doesn’t. This was the latter. But we still love her.
