This is... too much. Lop off the bow and we'll talk. Together, they look like haunted dolls.
Doja Cat in Balmain

She said this was based on a 1950s design, and it works really well on her. It even coordinates with her two-tone hair.

It's not a pattern per se, but it's... lots of colors? So. I wish I could say I like it, but it all reads muddy to me.
Ethan Slater and Bowen Yang (in Etro)

Bowen's jacket is great, but mayhap is the pink shirt detracting from its detailing a little? However, he delights me, and he must have kindly offered to hang with Ethan Slater on the red carpet in his buddy Ariana Grande's place, because Ethan and Ariana still seem to be pretending people don't know they're an item. While we are here, I think Ethan needs to explore other hairstyles.
Stacy Martin in Louis Vuitton

This is like Carol Burnett's curtain rod shoulders, but at her ankles.
June Squibb

This woman is everything. Justice for Thelma. This is probably the last time I'll say that because the season is officially over. But what a BEAUTIFUL woman in a BEAUTIFUL frock.
Lucky Yates and Molly O'Brien

We all swooned for her sparkly bugs on Drinks With Broads when she won for "The Only Girl in the Orchaesta," so I thought we should enjoy them here!
Edvin Ryding

He's a Swedish actor who's going to be in Danny Boyle's 28 Years Later this year, so I guess he's... making sure we remember him?!? On the DWB chat we were hoping he would turn out to be another random billionaire, like, a salted licorice heir or something. Alas. But he IS dressed like minor royalty (and he played a prince in a Netflix series, so: synergy).
Emilie Livingston and Jeff Goldblum, both in Prada

Very nice!

This man does nothing halfway. Well, except starring in Wicked, I guess, because we're only halfway done. ZING.
