Oscars 2013: Where Have All The Fashion Disasters Gone?

The red carpet just isn't the same in the age of the stylist. As a whole heap of beautiful designer dresses were waltzed down the red carpet at the Oscars 2013, Team MyDaily waited for the frock shockers to make their dramatic entrance. Er, we're still waiting.

Where were the Bjork swan dresses and the Demi Moore spanx/curtain ensembles? We'll tell you where, in the dusty long-forgotten award season wardrobes of days gone by. Before someone was there to say, "Hey Cher, we know you're super famous and everything, but that dress looks a bit cobwebby and silly".

We can't quite believe that the most horrendous outfit offering came from Heidi Klum? She doesn't even look THAT bad, just ~~very~~ a little tasteless...

Anne Hathaway looked slightly worrying in her Prada dress, but it wasn't the dress' fault, it was Anne's for refusing to wear a bra! Did she not look in the mirror before she hit the red carpet? Is her stylist actually a frenemy a la Mean Girls in disguise?

Another look that had us muttering 'meh' came in the form of Kristen Stewart. Again, the dress was alright, not exactly nice but not exactly terrible *snore*. The most show-stopping thing about this ensemble was the crutches...

We think these girls would do well to sack their stylists and give going solo a go. Imagine how much better Anne would have probably looked if she didn't have a lady with a tape measure telling her, "See-through-ish pink is SO your colour." Unfortunately we doubt we'll live to see the day the celeb stylist is given the boot. We'll just have to look back at the Nineties with a melancholy smile. Ah, those were the days...

Kate Winslet In 1998, Kate was nominated for Best Actress in Titanic. Unfortunately, this green McQueen dress sunk on the Oscars red carpet, too.
Worst Dressed Oscars Of All Time
Kate Hudson Though the actress was wearing top designer Stella McCartney for her red carpet turn at the 73rd Annual Academy Awards in 2001, the ageing hair and makeup (not to mention granny panties-effect of the dress) made Kate look decades older than her 21 years.

Tyra Banks There's a fine line between fairy tale and fairy cake, and this frou-frou frock by Vera Wang that Tyra wore to the 2000 Oscars looks like a gown that only Barbie could pull off.
Worst Ever Red Carpet Fashion
Celine Dion Celine's backwards tuxedo from the 1999 Oscars was a Dior creation - but even that fact couldn't save this from being one of the most ridiculous looks to ever hit the red carpet.
Worst Ever Red Carpet Fashion
Whoopi Goldberg It's a jungle out there, but we don't need to dress like the wildlife. This muu-muu practically engulfed Whoopi at the Oscars in 2009, swallowing up her hands and feet.
Worst Ever Red Carpet Fashion
Diane Keaton Androgynous dressing has always been part of Diane Keaton's ethos, but she took the English gent look a little too far when she arrived at the 76th Annual Academy Awards in 2004 in this three-piece Ralph Lauren suit.
Worst Dressed Oscars Of All Time
Charlize Theron We're pleased to report that Charlize survived the 78th Annual Academy Awards in 2006, despite being nearly suffocated by the insane amount of excess fabric on the Dior dress she donned.
Worst Dressed Oscars Of All Time
Tilda Swinton Unfortunately, Tilda's velvet Lanvin frock looked like a shapeless sack at the 2008 Academy Awards - and it's too dark and dense for the star's au naturel complexion. On the plus side, it didn't stop her from picking up the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her role in Michael Clayton.

Gwyneth Paltrow Gwyneth's gothy makeup and braless approach did her no favours in the style stakes at the 2002 Oscars, when she wore this frock by McQueen.

Not exactly a red carpet dress, and her hair looks greasy. Shame as she usually looks nice whatever she wears.

Looking at attractive women is sometimes good. Taking a break from corruption, fraud, and murder attempts. I take pleasure in beauty....................................................

Why do these women have to have their boobs hanging out, to take attention away from their face?

I presume there are a load of women who are interested in how these people dress but isn't this idea of competing with each other to see who can show most boob a thing of the past. They have no heidea and it is about as interesting as Beckham's debut.!!!!

What's your problem, "celebrity writer" Ellen Stewart? You're clearly not related to Rod! What you "celebrating"? Puritanism? If ya got it, flaunt it and let it all hang out, surely! I'd suggest you consider applying for a job at the Catholic Herald, frumpy!
