The annual Met Gala never fails to wow us with the best and worst looks that we tend to remember for a whole year until the next Met event. And while this year’s affair certainly gave us a fair share of standout heels and glamorous ensembles, there were also a few ladies who stood out for all the wrong reasons.

Katie Holmes, who is known to always wear prim and sophisticated dresses, decided to turn things up a bit in the spirit of the event and wore a completely befuddling dress that gave her the “Worst Dressed” title for the night.

Wearing a mustard yellow Marchesa gown, it seemed like Katie was channeling Belle of ‘Beauty and the Beast’ but fell short of impressing the crowd. The puffy ball gown drowned her out, and her messy beach waves were out of place, too.

What do you think of this red carpet look?
