15 Celebrities Who Stole the Show With Their Outrageous Outfits

Everyone cares about first impressions, especially celebrities, since they are usually the center of attention. Some of them take huge risks to steal the limelight and manage to rock the most daring looks of the night. And, in case you don’t believe us, we have gathered 15 examples of stars who wore outfits as beautiful as they were unique.

1. Kylie Jenner

At the 2017 Met Gala, the famous model wore a Versace gown made of mesh and embellished with jewels, fans, and beautiful golden flowers, which gave the unusual outfit a very elegant touch on the red carpet.

2. Christina Aguilera

At a 2018 Harper’s Bazaar event, the main attraction in Christina Aguilera’s outfit was not the fabric, but the feathers that covered it. Designed by Carine Roitfeld, this gown surely stole all the looks at the time.

3. Solange Knowles

At the 2021 Met Gala, the famous singer wore a dress that looked like a sculpture. Even though it hasn’t been very comfortable, it must have grabbed all the camera flashes.

4. Jennifer López

Jennifer López isn’t afraid to wear see-through dresses to public events, and the 2015 Met Gala was no exception. Her gown, designed by Donatella Versace, only covered her body with a shiny red dragon that made her look like the protagonist of a fantasy tale, or who knows? Maybe like the Mother of Dragons from Game of Thrones.

5. Iman

At the 2021 Met Gala, the model wore a dress designed by Dolce & Gabbana, which had a large skirt adorned with feathers reminiscent of classic medieval dresses or, perhaps, a cage. But regardless of that, the outfit was definitely out of this world.

6. Lil Nas X

Surely, Iman’s dress must have been the talk of the town, and Lil Nas X did not want to be left out. So, at the MTV Video Music Awards, he wore a similar outfit with the original skirt and the giant headdress but in black.

7. Joy Villa

As flamboyant as it may look, Joy Villa’s gown was not a Halloween costume, but rather an avant-garde outfit she wore to the 2016 Grammys. Without a doubt, if there had been an award for the most unique dress, she would have won it.

8. Gigi Hadid

Most celebrities usually put on more or less flashy dresses for different events. But Gigi Hadid decided to attend the 2019 Met Gala wearing a white, silver, and gold striped catsuit, accompanied by a headdress adorned with feathers. She also made up her eyelashes in white, which made her look like a snow queen.

9. Megan Pormer

At the 2019 amfAR New York Gala, model Megan Pormer wore an haute couture gown that had some Maleficent vibes. And, while it probably stole the spotlight, we wonder if it was comfortable to walk around with all that garb on her arms and mostly on her face.

10. Frances McDormand

Wearing a dress at the 2018 Met Gala was not enough for McDormand, so she complemented her outfit with a bouquet of leaves on her head as if it were a hat. A somewhat crazy decision, but we must admit that she wore this accessory with a lot of style and conviction.

11. Fredrik Robertsson

At the 2022 Met Gala, creative director Fredrik Robertsson wore a custom-designed jumpsuit made from recycled fabric and digitally printed. The “feathers” that adorned his suit and defied gravity were also laser-cut. It took twelve people and a total of 750 hours of work to make this outfit, and it was only worn for one night!

12. Paris Hilton

At the 2018 amfAR Gala, Paris Hilton wore an outfit designed by Nicolas Jebran, which, with all its transparencies and floral embellishments, made her look like a living, modern version of the Venus de Milo.

13. Cate Blanchett

At the 2018 Cannes Film Festival, Cate Blanchett wore an Iris van Herpen gown, which took 300 hours to custom-make. Not only did it take a lot of time, but it also required manual labor and laser-cutting machinery to shape the three-dimensional silhouettes of the attire that simulated leaves.

14. Z LaLa

On the red carpet of the 2016 Billboard Music Awards, the singer wore an all-black party dress that had a skirt that looked like a cage and a towering wig. Her entire outfit was designed by stylist Mel Ottenberg.

15. Beyoncé

At the 2015 Met Gala, Beyoncé wore an outfit designed by Givenchy. It had transparent fabric adorned with beautiful and colorful stones, which delicately highlighted the singer’s beautiful figure.

Why do you think celebrities choose such extravagant outfits? If you had the chance to walk down a red carpet, what would be your ideal outfit?
