While there were celebrities who went out of their way to look sexy and gorgeous on the red carpet, there were also some who gave up on the gorgeous part and went for outrageous instead.
It should be noted that a couple of the disastrous outfits were not purely unintentional. Some attendees knew drama was needed, even at the expense of looking cringe-worthy.
1. Lady Gaga Pays Tribute to David Bowie in Bold Marc Jacobs Gown
We should be getting used to Lady Gaga’s crazy red carpet antics by now, right?
But after she spoiled us with classy looks at other events, this was just a significant step back. The ’80s called, and they wanted their Marc Jacobs dress and blue eyeshadow back.

2. Florence Welch Fails in Gucci Pre-Fall 2016 Dress
This dress proves that even Gucci can go wrong. We loathe the crepe-paper-like hem.
That glittery ribbon on the dress also made the singer look wrapped up and ready to be sent as a gift. And, please, the no-make-up makeup look is so overrated.

3. Ciara Rocks High-Slit Alexandre Vauthier Haute Couture Dress
Are waist-high slits in vogue now? What has the world come to? This Alexandre Vauthier dress needs to tone down on the sexiness meter.

4. Elle King Rocks Custom Christian Siriano Dress
This Christian Siriano dress looks like a crow threw up all over it.

5. Andra Day Rocks Retro Michael Costello Dress
There is absolutely nothing flattering about this dress. Not the color. Not the shape. Not the length. And definitely not Andra’s belief that something furry can make it look pretty.

6. Anoushka Shankar Wears Blue Manish Arora Dress
We hope she didn’t pay a lot for this Manish Arora dress. It looks like something you can buy at a bad wholesale dress shop.

7. Diana Gloster Rocks Tarik Ediz Gown Printed With Music Notes
Remember Katy Perry’s gorgeous Valentino gown at the 2014 Grammy Awards? That’s the right way to wear musical notes on yourself. Diana should take notes, no pun intended.
