Rita Ora

Yes, she's a dinosaur. For this particular event (or I suppose a costume party)....I confess that I kind of love this. Lady Gaga's absence has created a vacuum.

If you get this in the course of your daily life, however, you should see a professional.

Rita Ora

The actual dress here is from her collection with Primark, which is a British brand which is....I guess the closest American equivalent is Target. It's obviously very simple, but she wears it well.

Kristen McMenamy

It was raining at this event, which is why her dress looks patterned -- I think it is wet. She certainly has the oomph to carry this well.

Aweng Ade-Chuol in Vetements

Speaking of oomph! She gets bonus points for also being nice and cozy and warm. I do think I once had a bodysuit from Contempo made out of this material in 1996.

Maisie Williams in Simone Rocha

We are certainly seeing more veils lately than I'd anticipated, which is fun. This has big Deranged Bride vibes and it DOES feel very British.

Maya Jama in D&G

This is HUGE. She told Law Roach -- who hosted the red carpet -- that she knows D&G isn't British but she's "with them," AKA they pay her, so here it is. (She changed inside, also presumably because this would be annoying to wrangle.)

Maya Jama

This isn't un-fun, objectively. It's very Dramatic Scene in a Period Piece Where the Heroine Is Preparing For a Big Event.

Tatiana Korsakova

I told you there were ruffles!

Tallia Storm

I TOLD YOU! (The dress under this is beige and sheer and boring but this coat is FUN and wacky.)

Kim Hnizdo in Diesel

I'm not mad, I'm just logistically confused.

Kim Hnizdo in Diesel

All I know is -- this must be weird to walk in. (I also think it's vaguely dumb but not dumb enough to raise my blood pressure.)

Mette Towley in Robert Wun

This skirt is DELIGHTFUL and the hoodie layered under everything somehow makes her look like a cold little sea anemone.

Betty Bachz in Miss Sohee

My only comment here is that I think this is BEAUTIFUL.

Hana Martin

She looks like a sophisticated Victorian madam who may or may not also be in the business of murdering terrible men and I mean this as the highest compliment.

Taylor Russell in Loewe

This skirt is boring, so you can concentrate on her algae top -- which I admittedly think is very cool.

Taylor Russell in Loewe

It might possibly be poking her in the neck all night, but the detailing is fantastic.

Pixie Lott

Those forearms are WARM AND COZY.

Iris Law in Vivienne Westwood

Obviously allowable given this event.

Gwendoline Christie

If Maleficent were your headmistress. This is also a compliment.

Daniel Lismore

This is what I was gonna wear!
