Turkeys by the frock
Published November 23, 2006 at midnight
Beauty, talent, loads of cash and a body to kill for?
All those things still can't always buy a celebrity good fashion sense.
As we present our annual Fashion Turkey Awards, we must admit we couldn't help but gobble up all the missteps we could find. See, in today's red-carpet world they're becoming more and more rare. Stylists now direct famous leading ladies on everything from dress choice to hairstyles to makeup application. They earn big bucks to keep their star clients from designing their own one-sleeved frocks (hello, Kim Basinger), wearing nothing but a few strategically-placed strings (that was you, Rose McGowan) or, say, turning a tuxedo jacket backward (the horror, Celine Dion!).
And while this well-paid-for guidance has transformed, for example, Demi Moore from wearing bicycle shorts to the Oscars into the Gucci-clad fashion plate she is today, we can't help but give thanks that we still have the Britney Spearses and Lil' Kims of the world to gawk at.
So, as you dig into your turkey dinners today, take a moment to savor this feast of fashion don'ts.
Repeat offenders
Oops, Britney Spears. Motherhood has certainly not helped your sense of style. And Lil Kim? Jail time obviously did nothing to change your crimes of fashion, either.
Perhaps the years biggest fashion offenders, these two repeatedly hit awards shows and other appearances in too-small, overly revealing styles that may have been meant to say flash, but instead screamed trash.
