The past week has been filled with stunning celebrity looks, from the Democratic National Convention (DNC) to red carpets for new movies like Zoë Kravitz’s “Blink Twice.” While there were some hits and misses in terms of style, one thing is for sure – there was a pop of color in fashion compared to last week’s muted blacks and neutrals.
The DNC, which took place from Aug. 19 to 22 in Chicago this year, was a star-studded event with celebrities bringing out their A-game in terms of looks. Oprah Winfrey made a surprise appearance in a vibrant all-purple look, while Michelle Obama opted for a sleek and slender outfit for her speech.
Other stars like Jenna Ortega, Penelope Ann Miller, and Heidi Klum also made captivating fashion choices. Jenna Ortega continued her “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” press tour with a goth-inspired look on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.” Penelope Ann Miller turned heads at the “Reagan” premiere in a vibrant red gown, while Heidi Klum showed that a casual look can still shine on the red carpet at an “America’s Got Talent” event.
However, not everyone hit the mark in terms of fashion this week. Stars like Cara Delevingne, Naomi Ackie, Idris Elba, Kylie Cantrall, and Da’Vine Joy Randolph missed the style mark with their questionable outfit choices.
Last week, Yahoo Canada readers voted Lily Collins as the best-dressed celebrity, while Halle Berry’s La Perla lingerie outfit was crowned the worst look. Who do you think were the best and worst-dressed stars of this week? Cast your vote and read on to learn more about the style choices stars made over the past few days.
BEST DRESSED: Oprah Winfrey
Oprah Winfrey stole the show at the DNC with a monochromatic purple suit by Christian Siriano. The outfit featured a sharp-shouldered jacket, a corset belt, and matching wide-leg trousers, paired with plum-colored pumps and accessories. The media queen looked elegant and powerful in this vibrant ensemble.
WORST DRESSED: Cara Delevingne
Cara Delevingne’s look for the “Blink Twice” premiere in London missed the mark with an oversized bejeweled brown jacket paired with a lime green sweater vest and pinstripe baggy black trousers. The outfit was confusing and lacked cohesiveness, making it a questionable choice for the red carpet.
BEST DRESSED: Jenna Ortega
Jenna Ortega continued to serve looks on her press tour for “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice,” opting for a custom black Dion Lee outfit with silver chains draped over it. The goth-inspired ensemble was edgy and captivating, showcasing the actress’s unique sense of style.
WORST DRESSED: Idris Elba
Idris Elba’s outfit for the “Shifters” West End premiere after-party was disheveled and lacked style. The asymmetrical grey and brown buttoned shirt paired with matching pants and Converse shoes did not make a fashion statement, leaving the actor looking less than polished on the red carpet.
BEST DRESSED: Michelle Obama
Michelle Obama stunned in a navy Monse sleeveless jacket and cropped trousers at the DNC. The former first lady showcased her toned arms and impeccable style, pairing the outfit with silver hoop earrings and black pumps for a sophisticated and chic look.
WORST DRESSED: Kylie Cantrall
Kylie Cantrall’s ensemble at the “Only Murders in the Building” Season 4 premiere was a caricature of 2000s fashion, with an off-the-shoulder knit top, pleated mini skirt, newsboy hat, and knee-high tights. The look was over-the-top and lacked cohesion, making it a miss on the red carpet.
BEST DRESSED: Penelope Ann Miller
Penelope Ann Miller brought glamour to the “Reagan” premiere in a vibrant red gown with ruffles and a thigh-high slit. The actress looked stunning in the one-shoulder neckline dress, paired with gold jewelry and silver sandals for a red carpet-worthy look.
WORST DRESSED: Da’Vine Joy Randolph
Da’Vine Joy Randolph took a high-fashion risk at the “Only Murders in the Building” premiere but missed the mark with a strapless Mugler dress and a mini bob hairstyle. The outfit featured fringe-like leather straps and was paired with black heels, creating a disjointed and unflattering look on the green carpet.
BEST DRESSED: Heidi Klum
Heidi Klum kept it simple yet stylish at an “America’s Got Talent” red carpet in a cropped safari shirt and mini skirt by Patou. The model looked effortlessly chic in the tan ensemble, paired with nude heels, gold and silver jewelry, and striking red nails for a polished and modern look.
WORST DRESSED: Naomi Ackie
Naomi Ackie’s white draped Loewe gown at the “Blink Twice” premiere looked like a curtain transformed into a last-minute red carpet outfit. The cowl-neck dress with cutouts lacked sophistication and elegance, making it a miss in terms of red carpet fashion.
In conclusion, the past week was filled with a mix of stunning and questionable celebrity looks, from the DNC to movie premieres. While some stars nailed their fashion choices, others missed the mark with confusing and unflattering outfits. Fashion is subjective, and everyone has their own unique style, but it’s always interesting to see how celebrities express themselves through their clothing choices. Let us know your thoughts on the best and worst-dressed stars of the week!
