Sometimes celebrities aren’t the fashion icons we’d like to think they are. There’s a fine line between bold and just plain outrageous, and when it comes to red carpet events, they tend to cross that line A LOT! Here are all the dresses we absolutely hated at the Met Gala 2016.
This year’s theme was ‘Manus x Machina: Fashion In An Age Of Technology’. This accounts for all the metallic dresses we saw on the red carpet, but some of them just looked like train wrecks!

1- Michelle Williams

I was kind of expecting more from Michelle. Even though this dress is a Louis Vuitton, it basically looks like she got it off the rack and is wearing a fanny pack at the front. I was expecting an impressive ball-gown, but instead received an underwhelming cocktail dress.

2- Zayn Malik 

Zayn would have looked alright if he had just showed up in the Versace suit he’s wearing, but instead he decided to pair his suit with a medieval armor. While most celebrities were dressed in metallics, we’re not really sure why he thought this would be a good idea.NEW YORK, NY - MAY 02: Zayn Malik attends "Manus x Machina: Fashion In An Age Of Technology" Costume Institute Gala at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 2, 2016 in New York City.

3- Katy Perry 

Katy Perry looks like she stepped out of a Japanese anime in this Prada dress; she also had her eyebrows bleached and don’t even get me started on the wig! C’mon Katy; I expected better from you!katy-perry-2016-met-gala-carpet-04

4- Demi Lovato

Demi arrived in sleeked back hair and a metallic Moschino dress. But the truth is… there is such a thing as too much sequins!635978283744402573-GTY-527447748

5- Madonna

It’s true. I do kind of miss the days when Madonna used to wear black lace, but now that I see this Givenchy dress, I’ve changed my mind. What’s worse is the amount of tape that she’s used to cover herself with.635978279346082185-AP-APTOPIX-2016-Metropolitan-Museum-of-Art-Costume-Institute-Be.1

6- Selena Gomez 

This Louis Vuitton dress so lacks luster, I definitely wanted more than just clodhopper boots and a maxi dress! This look just makes me want to sigh out of boredom.Selena-Gomez-Met-Gala-2016

7- Kim Kardashian and Kanye West 

This metallic dress might have worked but instead it just makes Kim look like she came out of a sci-fi movie. And to top off this bad look, she bleached her eyebrows and made Kanye put on contact lenses that made him look like a futuristic alien. 635978285099435945-AP-2016-Metropolitan-Museum-of-Art-Costume-Institute-Benefit-Ga

Well, that’s about all I can handle from the Met Gala this year. Hopefully, these celebrities will learn the error of their ways in time for next year’s gala.
