Ugh, step away from the Chanel! She is so young and cute and could pull off SO MUCH fun stuff, and this dress is NONE of those things. What a bummer.

Sabrina Carpenter

This is VERY pretty and with a red lip, Sadie could've rocked it! Not that I'm trying to take it away from Sabrina. I'm just... lamenting.

Joey King

Her top is made of giant paper clips. The rest of her outfit is hella depressing. It's so HEAVY and the proportions eat her alive. Plus she's wearing her Disaffected Youth head-styling. Pass.

Addison Rae in Gaultier

Come boobs are a bold choice when you are not Madonna, or Lady Gaga. Or a couple other people, but the point is, I am not at all convinced Addison Rae has legitimately unlocked the Cone Boobs Achievement yet.

Isabela Merced

Leather gloves? In August?

Chandler Kinney

She looks superb in this. What a perfect fit.

Charlotte Lawrence

And of course she's wearing something microscopic and sheer.

Maisy Stella

You might remember her as the younger of the daughters from Nashville! She's in a movie with Aubrey Plaza right now. This dress is serving shades of Diner Waitress.

Chloe Coleman

She's 15, and while I love that she's not going full Boobs said this dress was the best alternative. Look at that FACE, though. She'll be a fun one for magazine spreads eventually.

Hailey Kilgore

Well, this looks... constrictive.

Claudia Sulewski

I JUST said in the previous post that drop-waists were encroaching rapidly and here's another one. Her purse and lippy are good, but the dress is a big nothing for me -- and we've seen her look so much better! (She's dating Finneas, Billie Eilish's brother.)

Laufey

This is probably Chanel, also, but she's carrying it well.

Sure! It's fine! NBC sent him to Paris with Mikey Day, and I feel like everyone they used from SNL was a bit too snarky and unserious? Far from bringing lightness, it just felt like they didn't give a shit.

Natalie Jane

What a hazard. I hope she pinned up her denim tails.

Leah Kateb and Serena Page

Two of my three favorites from Love Island this season! (It was a BANGER.) I have notes, but these two have been public figures for like two weeks, basically, so the fact that they look better than a number of these other folks is a big win.
