The Navels and Nips of the BRITs

Tallia Storm

She looks like one of the models that a resort hired to work their branded Svedka apres-ski lodge. Maybe she IS and is just on her way home from work.

It's a very pretty dress, but Lent starts on the 22nd -- don't give up linings YET.

Ashnikko

This tarp is ALMOST thick enough to hide everything. I suspect Ashnikko is having light regrets while trying to maneuver in this...

... and also is hot for the bubonic plague.

It's just a peek of navel, but it counts. These look like they were cobbled together after the apocalypse using scraps from someone's yacht.

Yinka Bokinni

Navel frame!

They won for best new band, which is exciting. I love the color here. I feel like after about an hour of movement, this was probably three-for-three with visible navels.

Vick Hope

We joke a lot about stuff being made of hotel bedsheets, but I sincerely think that would explain how hastily this seems to be designed and measured.

Leomie Anderson

This feels very Mardi Gras.

Montana Brown

This is like a monokini grew itself into a full gown.

Kamille

I just feel like... if my boob support was somehow DIRECTLY connected to my posture, I would do very poorly.

Jessie J

I am so curious if she was able to find a catsuit that already had a hole in it, or if she adjusted it. Is there a store that specializes in gestation windows.

AJ Odudu

Okay, we can't see her navel or her nipples, but they're the ONLY bits we can't see, so... it's SPIRITUAL navel and nipple.

Harry Styles

Harry, meanwhile, went all-out onstage. I saw that he and his dancers were bedeviled by a turnstile that went the wrong way during the Grammy performance, which may explain why its energy felt off-kilter. He looks in good spirits here.

Harry Styles

We might as well wrap up his wardrobe, even if it doesn't fit the theme. I really like this -- it's so slick. Kind of the low-key version of what he wore on the red carpet.

Yes, that's Harry Styles embracing Stanley Tucci lovingly. A photo that I imagine is DEEP CATNIP to several corners of the Internet.

Lizzo

And then this delightful lady sang a song AND played the flute IN THIS. She looks like she's wearing a loveseat.

Sam Smith et al

Is Sam Smith too famous to do Eurovision? Because this performance is the audition. It starts out all fierce...

... and ends with writhing on busted cars while things shoot sparks. Eurovision would LOVE THIS.
