You can tell these two had a good time coming up with this, and she's perfect in it. Every choice is interesting. ## Lupita in Jason Wu ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-wu-GettyImages-692733618-1496714770-640x963-1591680007.jpg) The precision of that tailoring makes this seem lackluster, like, "Wait, how are we gonna get it to stay up? I guess just go crossbody, like it's a purse." ## Coco Rocha in Cynthia Rowley ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-rowley-GettyImages-692732816-1496721742-compressed-1591679989.jpg) I picture Coco unzipping the dress bag Cynthia sent over, goggling at this for a second, and then hissing, "Once again, Coco, YOU have to do all the work here." ## Meg Ryan in Siriano ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-siriano-BGUS_878159_052-1496721697-compressed-1591679997.jpg) This is very good on her. ## Kerry Washington in Prabal Gurung (with Swarovski) ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-prabal-BGUS_878159_050-1496721302-compressed-1591679981.jpg) This is a pretty idea, but it looks like her right boob is contemplating an escape. Not that hard, mind you. It's not tunneling through the Shawshank wall, or anything; it's just a passing fancy, a wisp of a thought. ## Bella Hadid in Off White ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-off-white-BGUS_878127_030-1496721603-compressed-1591679973.jpg) This is all very nice, and then we get to the shoes, which just look like she's wearing tw house-arrest anklets. ## Nicole Kidman in Oscar de la Renta ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-odlr-BGUS_878159_013-1496721632-compressed-1591679964.jpg) It's never ideal to look like your dress got caught in your underwer while you were on the toilet. ## Diane Kruger in Monse ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-monse-GettyImages-692708878-1496715438-640x997-1591679957.jpg) This is definitely not the worst Monse, but it's also a fashion representation of getting a drink hurled at you. ## Priyanka Chopra in Kors ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-kors-GettyImages-692733948-1496721754-compressed-1591679950.jpg) She looks great in this, but maybe a bit more like she's about to go on Seth Meyers's show. ## Chloe Grace Moretz ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-GettyImages-692715794-1496721115-compressed-1591679890.jpg) Same with this. She's going to brunch. Maybe someone told her this WAS a brunch. ## Ashley Benson in Kate Spade ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-kate-spade-BGUS_877959_045-1496721261-compressed-1591679940.jpg) This does feel more like a knockoff of Valentino or D&G, which we noted at the time as well. ## Ellie Kemper in Kate Spade ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-GettyImages-692726374-1496721125-compressed-1591679915.jpg) That feels a BIT more on-brand? Or at least less imitative. It also does feel a bit brunchy. ## Josephine Skriver in Naeem Khan ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-GettyImages-692735580-1496721183-compressed-1591679932.jpg) This suit made a lot of appearances: About eight months later, [Eve wore it to the Grammys](https://www.gofugyourself.com/photos/grammys-2018-pants-patterns/60th-annual-grammy-awards-arrivals-9?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io), and then a year and a half after *that* [Kourtney Kardashian donned it for the People's Choice Awards](https://www.gofugyourself.com/photos/the-rest-of-the-peoples-choice-awards/45th-annual-peoples-choice-awards-arrivals-barker-hanger-los-angeles-usa-10-nov-2019-38?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). Eve did it best, then Kourt, then Jo here, and I thnk it's because Eve mastered the mystery of wearing no shirt under a sexy big blazer. ## Joan Smalls ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-GettyImages-692725704-1496721713-compressed-1591679907.jpg) The dress is nothing special, but she looks sublime. ## The Olsens ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-GettyImages-692725452-1496715870-640x963-1591679898.jpg) Let's get them back on TV as the stars of a experimental drama about rival sisters who conduct all their argument via fierce pluck-offs on their vintage harps. ## Gabrielle Union in Rodarte ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-GettyImages-692715382-1496721098-compressed-1591679881.jpg) This outfit is bonkers, but something about Gabrielle's unamused facial expression is making it all work for me? It's intense Important Fashion Editor energy, but in a way where I'd really LIKE it if she took over *Vogue*. ## Amanda Peet in Brock ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-brock-BGUS_877959_036-1496721247-compressed-1591679873.jpg) So many Brock dresses look inspired by a young maiden having a tryst in the hay. ## Kate Bosworth in Brock ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-brck-BGUS_878001_013-1496721273-compressed-1591679866.jpg) That one is better. ## Jaime Alexander in Marc Bouwer ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-bouwer-BGUS_877959_019-1496721221-compressed-1591679857.jpg) That's an intriguing solution at trying to keep her keyhole for popping open, btut I'm not sure it's the most elegant one? ## Hailey Baldwin ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-BGUS_878159_026-1496721664-compressed-1591679849.jpg) But really, everyone takes the elegance cake over Hailey Baldwin here, who looks like she made that herself because her parents told her she had, like, *tons* of vision. ## Chloe Sevigny ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-BGUS_878104_054-1496721286-compressed-1591679841.jpg) The event was sponsored by Red Lobster. ## Brit Marling in Sies Marjan ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-BGUS_877959_050-1496721562-compressed-1591679833.jpg) I wasn't familiar with Brit here at the time of the original posting. I've since watched *The OA*, and... yeah, this feels about right. ## Olivia Munn ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-BGUS_877959_033-1496721234-compressed-1591679824.jpg) At the time, I thought that looked like kicky lawn furniture. Now I look at it and think, "Ohhhhh, what I would do to be in the presence of some kicky lawn furniture." ## Mandy Moore ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-BGUS_877959_007-1496721195-compressed-1591679816.jpg) As Tim Gunn would say, that's a lot of look. ## Arizona Muse in Kors ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-arizona-kors-GettyImages-692734086-1496721162-compressed-1591679799.jpg) This is very soothing, by comparison. ## Brooke Shields ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-GettyImages-692735344-1496721172-compressed-1591679923.jpg) "I was the last slide, originally. I, in my big flowery gown, was the big finish. I wonder what got the nod this time." ## Alek Wek in Balenciaga ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/06/2017-balnciaga-BGUS_878159_021-1496721649-compressed-1591679807.jpg) Why this, OF COURSE. Alek wore this hilarrible wearable gift on the runway, and then here again, and she is providing the literal bow we can tie on this retrospective. I appreciate the metaphor.
