About who started the fashion for extravagant dresses, fashion critics have been arguing for a long time. True, it is worth clarifying what is considered extravagant. At the beginning of the 20th century, it could be simple dresses above the knees, for the 21st century it is raw meat, which, by the order of the designer, has become the most discussed outfit. In this article, we will talk about the most extravagant dresses that turned the outdated views on evening dresses.
Lady Gaga
This, perhaps, no one will forget. At the 27th MTV Video Music Awards 2010, the outrageous queen appeared in a dress made of raw meat. It is unlikely that anyone until this day could have thought that meat can be worn. Only a no less outrageous designer, whose ideas about dresses are very far from traditional - Frank Fernandez, could have thought of this. As the main accessories, the singer had a clutch and a hat made from pieces of raw meat.
This outfitcaused a lot of outrage among the "greens", but many print publications dubbed him the top fashion statement of 2010.
Lady Gaga herself admitted that the choice fell on this kind of dress because of disagreement with the policy of the US army, which considers people worthless pieces of meat.
Joy Villa
Perhaps it was thanks to Lady Gaga's trick that the fashion for extravagant dresses reached a new level. How else to explain the fact that the little-known singer Joy Villa showed up at the Grammy 2015 in the orange grid? Perhaps this is due to the lack of popularity and the desire to stand out.
As they say: bad PR is PR too. The singer's outfit was recognized as one of the worst and was heatedly discussed in the gloss, which allowed Joy to remain on the top news list for a little longer.
Jennifer Lawrence
In this case, it is not so much the dress that is extravagant, but its cost. The work of art, created by the fashion house Dior, cost the actress $4 million. Jennifer Lawrence wore an insanely beautiful ivory puffy gown to the 2013 Oscars.
Despite the fact that the actress got entangled in a lot of layers, a train and fell when she got up on stage, this dress is definitely recognized as one of the most beautiful to appear on the red carpet. Maybe it was it that brought Jennifer Lawrence that very cherished statuette.
Barbra Streisand
Let her outfit at the 41st Oscars in 1969 not be called a dress, but the adjective "extravagant" is clearly indispensable here. The American actress and singer wore a black translucent pantsuit studded with sequins. And if in a darkened room the outfit looked very decent, then after Barbara entered the stage, a half-naked Oscar winner appeared in the light of spotlights.
According to the actress herself, she did not suspect that the costume would be so transparent, but it was too late to say anything. Most of the fashion publications called her outfit the worst and a complete failure.
Cher
This American actress and singer is outrageous. Cher has repeatedly shown the public her outrageous creative nature with the help of the most extravagant outfits, but one of them surpassed all previous ones.
Surely in the memory of many still her outfit from the awards ceremony of the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences "Oscar" in 1986. That year, Cher appeared in an image somewhat reminiscent of the stage outfits of the cult rock band Kiss, but only in a skirt. Her head was decorated with a porcupine with 800 needles sticking out in a chaotic pattern. A specific outfit for the ceremony was created by an American designer, the king of everything brilliant - Bob Mackie. This extravagant outfit made it to the list of the worst outfits in Oscar history.
Conclusion
In addition to the original beauties listed above, there are morea large number of stars who constantly challenge modern ideas about fashion and normality. In this list, Madonna, who loves corsets and awkward skirts, would look very harmonious; Miley Cyrus, who cut her hair like a boy and decided one day to demonstrate all her charms on the red carpet. In no way inferior in extravagance is Kim Kardashian, who showed up for one of the awards in a gold robe that was a little small in her hips. But that's why they are public figures, so that they can easily get away with everything, even the most extravagant evening dress.
Mere mortals are very far from the world in which world celebrities spin every day. By virtue of their creative nature, much is forgiven them and much is allowed. Each of their outfits, even the most disgusting, creates an advertisement for them, on which they earn their millions of dollars, but ordinary people should not wear something like that - and ordinary girls will look ridiculous and absolutely inappropriate in unusual outfits.
It is worth paying attention to the figures of the stars. Even if the outfit is the most extraordinary, attention will be diverted by inflated abs and toned forms. Extravagant dresses for obese women, capable of emphasizing the sensual nature and features of the figure, simply do not exist. For the most part, these outfits look like bags of an incomprehensible shape or absolutely awkward raincoats.
However, if you still decide to conquer others with your appearance or demonstrate your individuality, then there are many salons offeringextravagant dresses for women of different ages and body types.
Of course, you can try to create another masterpiece from meat or porcupine - who knows, maybe next time one of the stars listed above will order your outfit from you.
