BAFTA: Best looks from 2016
As the BAFTAs are being handed out this Sunday we take a look at last year’s best looks.
Best aged: Kate Winslet
This woman is FORTY ONE years old. How on earth does that work? Why did my aunt look like a raisin at that age and this star looks like an angel? Give me your secret, Kate. Ageing has begun.
Most creative styling of pearls: Kate Capshaw
Pearls will always be a classic accessory which means that tons of people have worn it before you. Kudos to Kate for her attempt to go a little crazy with the pearls, but instead of thinking “rad!” I’m thinking “why”. Better luck next time, Kate!
Most pointless straps: Emilia Clarke
Why would you have extra straps if all they do is fall down anyway? Why are they so loose? Are they meant to be like that? Isn’t that annoying? I mean, the dress would be even nicer without that element. Next time, bring scissors!
Dress most inspired by tracksuits: Gwendoline Christie
I don’t exactly know what I’m looking at here. It isn’t #athleisure, and it isn’t fashion. Gwendoline still pulls it off though, amazingly enough.
Most blue dress: Laura Whitmore
I quite like this dress, and I also like the idea of wearing a dress that makes it easy for people to find you. I mean, these awards tend to have a lot of guests in addition to press and fans, but I don’t think anyone struggled to find Laura this evening. Teal, teal, teal – THERE SHE IS!
Closest resemblance to a figure skater: Luiciana Barroso
This dress belongs on an ice skating rink. Maybe she went to the one in Gillingham after this event? Matt Damon looks well excited at the thought of it.
Most confusing: Lily Donaldson
People tend to dress up for these events, so this outfit is making me wonder what Lily was thinking – did she think BAFTA stood for Beach Attire For The Adventurous? It doesn’t help to wear a long skirt, Lily – you still look under dressed. Maybe you can bedazzle it next time or something.
Most fortunate blow of the wind: Domhnall Gleeson
I can’t tell if this look is on purpose – why does everyone else’s hair look fine while his is all over the place? I can’t tell if I love it or hate it either, but what I will say is if this look wasn’t planned, there is a thing called hairspray. Just a tip!
Best Trump-ish tan: Valentino Garavani
The fashion legend knew how to fake tan long before Trump did – you’re looking at the OG orange. I guess living in Italy helps.
Best pyjamas: Dame Maggie Smith
Looks like Maggie’s heading straight for bed after this. Can’t blame her as these awards tend to drag on forever, which can be boring sometimes. Maybe she even took a nap in her seat.
Best dressing gown: Julie Walters
We’ve all been there – you’re running out of time and you leave the flat in your slippers. Looks like Julie forgot to take her dressing gown off – oh well, let’s hope she remembered once she got inside.
Best confetti dress: Gemma Khan
Gemma, you’ve done it! Imagine all that confetti that goes to waste after it has been popped. What a brilliant way to recycle the bits that normally go straight in the bin. This is recycle goals! Taking notes!
Best resemblance to a peacock: Stefanie Powers
Okay, celebrities, the feathers have got to go. I have yet to see a dress with feathers that doesn’t make you look like a bird. It just isn’t necessary. Imagine this dress without the feathers. Better, right?
Best leather dress: Alicia Vikander
I haven’t seen a good leather outfit on the red carpet since the Beckhams’ leather suits in the 90s, and I have WAITED! Finally. Hats off to you, Alicia.
