Worst Oscar Dresses and Fashion Choices of All Time

Each year, watching the Academy Awards reminds us that celebrity fashion is almost as important as the award show itself.

Unfortunately, not everyone gets it right, but there is a silver lining — the worst choices are often the most memorable. 

Check out some of the worst Oscar dresses and men’s fashion choices ever seen on the red carpet. 

This Oscar outfit was no accident on Davis’ part and was worn in protest. She was nominated for best actress for her role in “Dangerous,” but she actually hated the film.

She reluctantly went to the award show in this plain dress after Warner Bros. forced her to show up. The collar is so large because the dress was designed to look like something the hired help would wear, which is how she felt about being employed by the studio. 

Bonham Carter got plenty of flack for this outfit, and it’s made plenty of “worst dressed” lists.

However, she has a unique style all her own, even if this dress didn’t work as well as her others usually do. 

Ann Margaret would have been 24 in 1965, but this outfit and styling ages her by about 20 years.

It would have also been very warm for Los Angeles, too, even in winter!

Eilish is still young, and this ensemble was a big misstep for an event as formal as the Oscars.

However, she really made up for it at the Met Gala just a year later!
