Maisie Williams and Taylor Swift

Somehow Maisie Williams looks like Christina Ricci here to me. Or like... I don't know. A sprite who's just made it to the final 5 on The Voice. Or Arya Stark overcommitting to a Daenarys Halloween costume.

Taylor Swift in Miu Miu

This is... you know. It looks like the third outfit in a rotation of five that a celebrity puts on at her wedding -- you know, one for the ceremony, one for the arrival at the reception, one for the toasts and cake (this one), one the dancing, and one for the departure. AS ONE DOES. It's just wholly uninteresting to me, though I do like her lipstick.

Olivia Rodrigo in Dior

This is a VERY fun party dress for a lady's first major music award ceremony. But the shoes have got to go.

Maya Jama in Area

it's like a beaded tribute to ribs.

Haim in The Row

Vogue did a whole story on how unexpected this choice is, spotlighting that we've seen Kendall Jenner, Jonah Hill, and Zoe Kravitz in The Row lately, and it made me wonder if The Row is doing a low-level D&G and shelling out some cash to get celebs to boost their profile again. Just a theory. This is all perfectly fine, but also feels like what you buy if your tastes are J.Crew but your budget is Valentino. It's sincerely just hella expensive basics for prepsters.

Right Haim's sheer delight about the statuette is so endearing to me. I REALLY need to learn their names. I have tried. It does not stick and I don't know why. I like their music; does that count for anything, Haim? I'm sorry. I need a mnemonic.

Billie Eilish

When she wore lingerie on her British Vogue cover, the reaction was so strong, it felt like people were interpreting that as her intention to ONLY wear lingerie EVER, to EVERYTHING. Which... is very unlikely! It was just one cover, one statement! And sure enough, here she is looking completely cute in a very reasonable sweater.

AJ Tracey in Dior

Am I crazy for thinking this shirt needed to be tucked in, or is the vee at the bottom intended as a feature? It's kind of distracting. I like the scarf, though.

Griff

This is Glinda, the Good Witch of Coachella.

Your eyes might have blown past it in the last photo -- the first time, mine did -- so here's a much clearer look at the fact that she's wearing VERY elaborate headgear.

Griff

I believe she won a newcomer award. This appears to be an ode to Frankenstein patched together from some former curtains. I hope she actually did ballet in those toe shoes; they're really pretty.

Arlo Parks

I love this. It fits perfectly.

Arlo Parks

She changed into this on-stage and it looks cool under the lights. I wish I could see a bit better what it actually IS. Silver?

Mabel in Tony Ward

This is a little cheesy.

Rag'n'Bone Man

I like his coat. I BELIEVE the t-shirt is the album cover for Nirvana's In Utero (or a version of it). I saw the text more clearly in a different shot, but this was better of the coat. DECISIONS.

Headie One in Louis Vuitton

ANOTHER fun coat. Thank you, gents.

Boy George

But as snazzy coats go, nobody can top Boy George.

Pa Salieu in Dior

I don't have any information on his clothes, but he grew up in The Gambia and I believe his pin is the form of that nation's flag.

Adam Lambert

And another lapel adornment!

Joe Corry in D&G

AND ANOTHER. I'm sensing a trend. Pocket squares, you may be on notice.

DJ Semtex

Hoodies, you are ALWAYS on notice. (At formal events, at least.)

Olly Alexander in Gucci

Flashy! I hope he IS hiding things up his sleeves. There's certainly room.

Celeste

Ah, I see Celeste is dressed as one of Olly's sleeves. Such synergy!

The Weeknd

I've decided this was just a random dude lip-synching The Weeknd's music, and that's how The Weeknd gets rest.

Sheridan Smith

I gather Sheridan is something of a beloved actress and musical theatre performer in the UK. She's giving Geri Halliwell-meets-Gaga vibes here.

Lianne La Havas in Schiaparelli

I love the dress, but again think that the shoes are too clunky and it needs something a bit more streamlined.

Raye in Etro

We are living in a material world; do we think she's a material girl?

Leigh-Anne Pinnock (in Maison Margiela), Jade Thirlwall (in Vivienne Westwood) and Perrie Edwards (in David Koma)

Two out of three (formerly four) ingredients in the Little Mix are pregnant. I suspect they are more excited about it than they look.

Rina Sawayama in Balmain

For when Rihanna isn't coming and you know there's room for VOLUME.

Haim, Boy George, and the Rest of the BRIT Awards Pack

Oh yeah, and did I mention Taylor Swift? I guess I just did.
