And though her outerwear seemed simple from the front, we fell in love with it when we saw the backside…

We thought Charlize Theron had hopped on the pantashoes trend, but nope, even worse. The actress arrived at the 29th annual ELLE Women in Hollywood Celebration in Los Angeles on Oct. 17 in this Alaia ensemble — a bright red long-sleeved knee-length frock paired with matching leggings — and topped things off with a black blazer. Making things even more confusing? She added strappy white sandals to finish off her mismatched look.

Kerry Washington served up a polarizing fashion moment at the premiere of "The School for Good and Evil" in Los Angeles on Oct. 18. On one hand, we adored the vibrant green shade and the collared crop top and high-waisted skirt elements. But the length of the skirt and the addition of a train on this Ralph Lauren number lost us. Let's take a closer peek at her beauty look…
_
Kerry Washington sported blunt bangs, a chic bob, a bold red lip and some dazzling drop earrings, almost redeeming the funky skirt in her Ralph Lauren ensemble.

A star who jumped the gun on Halloween? Kate Hudson arrived at the "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery" premiere in Madrid, Spain, on Oct. 19 in this mermaid-like halter-style Halpern design. As a red carpet dress, the pink and gold sequin combo fell flat, but it certainly would have made a nice costume! Let's take a closer look…
_
From the sequined halter straps to the matching high-waisted shimmering skirt, Kate Hudson's Halpern frock would have made an excellent and chic mermaid getup. Otherwise, the lavender bodice paired with gold wasn't the best movie premiere selection.
_
Julia Roberts rocked this dreamy Greta Constantine design at the Los Angeles premiere of her movie "Ticket to Paradise" on Oct. 17. We loved the bold hot pink shade, the voluminous short sleeves, the full ruffled skirt and the jewels she paired it with…
_
Julia Roberts accessorized her beautiful Greta Constantine gown with a pair of matching pink stone drop earrings by Chopard.
_
Gwyneth Paltrow arrived at the Gwyneth Paltrow x Copper Fit event in Santa Monica, California, on Oct. 19 in this disappointing getup. Her boring cream sleeveless frock was one thing, but adding chunky black sandals to the mix was a truly puzzling decision.
_
Green is her color! Jessica Chastain wowed in New York City on Oct. 19 in this silky lime green number. We loved everything from the shade to the way the frock draped and gathered to how she completed the look with a pair of gold sandals.
_
Gigi Hadid took business casual to a new level in this ensemble she wore in New York City on Oct. 14. The model rocked a printed blouse, baggy olive trousers, a tie and an oversized camel coat, accessorizing with a Dior bag and colorblocked loafers to round out this fun twist on menswear.
_
Victoria Beckham always looks chic, so this sleeveless silky frock she rocked in New York City on Oct. 13 was no surprise. We loved the emerald green shade, the perfect draping and the addition of those Saint Laurent black-and-clear pumps.
_
Curious who's underneath that bonkers hot pink fuzzy bucket hat? Well, it's Addison Rae, who wore the questionable hat choice with a black bralette, white shorts, striped socks and black slippers in Los Angeles on Oct. 18.
_
Hailey Bieber sported one of her signature killer athleisure looks in Los Angeles on Oct. 18 — a cute pale pink combo with a darker pink sweatshirt. Socks and white sneakers finished off her fresh workout ensemble.
_
Hailey Bieber nailed fall fashion in this slinky Saint Laurent number. We loved the chocolate brown shade, the turtleneck and long-sleeved combo and the way she paired it with burgundy heels at the 29th annual ELLE Women in Hollywood Celebration in Los Angeles on Oct. 17.
_
Cutouts on a gown that blends with your skin tone might not be the right move, as evidenced by Lea Michele at the Golden Heart Awards in New York City on Oct. 17. The star's tan sequined Michael Kors frock featured an all-over shimmer, but the single long sleeve and hip cutout almost weren't visible.
_
Yikes! Chloe Grace Moretz is no stranger to a miss list, so her baffling look at the "The Peripheral" TV series screening in London on Oct. 17 was hardly surprising. The actress arrived in this bonkers Molly Goddard getup — a cropped three-quarter-length sleeve hot pink tee paired with black and pink striped briefs worn over black tights all covered with a neon pink sheer tulle skirt.
_
Resident Bravo fashionista Paige DeSorbo didn't disappoint at Andy's Legends Ball during BravoCon 2022 in New York City on Oct. 14. The "Winter House" beauty rocked this sweet strapless pink confection with a train detail and paired it with strappy silver sandals.
_
We're used to Bella Hadid rocking wild looks lately, so this tame Michael Kors golden gown she wore to the Golden Heart Awards in New York City on Oct. 17 was a surprise. The model's long-sleeved midi-length frock would have been downright dull if not for the plunging neckline. She smartly added matching pale gold strappy sandals to complete her red carpet look.
_
"The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" fans know the couture access Sutton Stracke has, so there's no excuse for this dismal look she chose for Andy's Legends Ball during BravoCon 2022 in New York City on Oct. 14. The one-sleeved zebra-print minidress was a serious miss.
_
Olivia Rodrigo, is that you? We had to do a double take when the pop star arrived at the Givenchy Spring/Summer 2023 show during Paris Fashion Week on Oct. 2. A classic tan coat atop a sweet ivory slip dress was a stellar choice for the young star whose previous fashion picks have been polarizing. White platform sandals completed this pretty and polished look.
_
"The Real Housewives of Dubai" star Caroline Brooks wasn't attending a Halloween costume party. Nope, this monstrosity was her look for Andy's Legends Ball during BravoCon 2022 in New York City on Oct. 14. The frock gave us serious Cookie Monster vibes with all that pleated electric blue fabric and lost us entirely with the strange covered cutouts.
_
It's not Halloween quite yet, Janelle Monae! The singer-actress sported this all-red Christian Siriano ensemble at the "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery" premiere during the 66th BFI London Film Festival in London on Oct. 16. The massive floral headpiece rivaled the size of the ruffled skirt while a sheer red turtleneck overlay consisting of long sleeves and a floor-length skirt and train linked it all together, making this look match the red carpet from head to toe.
_
Kylie Jenner showed off the latest in sheer dresses in this Mugler design at the BoF500 gala during Paris Fashion Week on Oct. 1. The star's bizarre ensemble — is it a dress? a jumpsuit? We're not entirely sure! — featured black illusion lace and plenty of cutouts. Though we appreciated her twist on the otherwise tired sheer trend, the fact that we couldn't make out what was happening with all that draping and layers made this a miss.
_
Zendaya also rocked a twist on sheer at the Valentino ready-to-wear Spring/Summer 2023 fashion collection presentation during Paris Fashion Week on Oct. 2. We preferred the styling of her variety — a jumpsuit with tiny shorts underneath and a strategically draped and embellished coat. The fabric even covered the star's heels!
_
JoJo Siwa was back to her hot pink roots in this funky fit she wore to the 2022 Industry Dance Awards in Los Angeles on Oct. 12. The star arrived in a wild pink feathered top, a jeweled belt and a tulle skirt… and no, it wasn't a Halloween event! Sparkly sneakers and hot pink socks finished off this puzzling look that also happened to match her hair…
_

_
Alexandra Daddario rocked a sleek all-black look from Givenchy at the panel for Anne Rice's "Mayfair Witches" during New York Comic-Con on Oct. 6 — a chic long-sleeved blouse tucked into a floor-length studded skirt — and we adored it. The only thing we weren't wild about? The addition of comically oversized pearls. Let's take a closer look…
_
Alexandra Daddario's necklace made of massive pearls with crystal embellishments gave her otherwise killer Givenchy look a more costume-like feel.
_
Florence Pugh wowed at the London premiere of "The Wonder" on Oct. 7, arriving in this strapless coral Valentino confection. We adored the color and the subtle cutout at the waist as well as the dramatic feathered hemline, which made this a look that translated perfectly from the runway to the red carpet. Next up? A look at the fun poses it lent itself to…
_
Gorgeous! Florence Pugh's Valentino gown included a tulle overlay that made for some seriously fun posing on the red carpet.
_
We're very used to Jaden Smith taking fashion risks, but there was a lot to unpack from his Louis Vuitton showing during Paris Fashion Week on Oct. 4. The star arrived at the brand's Spring/Summer 2023 presentation in a cropped and embellished top and low-slung baggy jeans. White sneakers, a bizarrely draped scarf and a Louis Vuitton bag finished off his puzzling ensemble.
_
Kate Hudson looked darling in a floral Erdem number as she arrived at the 45th Mill Valley Film Festival in California to promote her new flick "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery" on Oct. 6. We loved the green straps and the way she paired it with white pumps and topped her updo off with a bow. Let's take a closer look…
_
Kate Hudson added a sweet bow detail to her half-up, half-down hairdo. Winged eyeliner and layered earrings completed her look.
_
Though we loved the color of the Vivienne Westwood getup Halsey wore to the designer's Spring/Summer 2023 show during Paris Fashion Week on Oct. 1, we weren't as wild about the silhouette and styling. The frock's wild draping combined with the pairing of a brighter red leather glove and thigh-high boot just lost us.
_
Tamera Mowry-Housley gave us great "Legally Blonde" vibes with this combo — a hot pink pantsuit paired with a killer green-and-pink plaid coat — that she wore to the "Today" show studios in New York City on Oct. 5. Her killer pale pink pumps, complete with poofs, cemented this look as a hit that Elle Woods would be proud of.
_
Billie Eilish sporting an outlandish outfit is never a surprise, so her look at the Environmental Media Association Awards Gala in Los Angeles on Oct. 8 was just par for the course. Her two-piece dark green Gucci look — an ensemble she first wore at the 2020 Billboard Music Awards — featured a subtle floral print that was balanced out by her stark black platform boots.
_
Kelsea Ballerini gave us mature Belle vibes at the CMT Artists of the Year event in Nashville on Oct. 12 in this glamorous silky yellow long-sleeved gown with a tapered skirt by Balenciaga — and scored a big hit in our books.
_
We love a good structural gown — and Vanessa Kirby delivered a great one at the premiere of "The Son" during the 66th BFI London Film Festival in London on Oct. 10. The beauty arrived in this slinky black Schiaparelli number with a structured peplum waist that we need to see from another angle…
_
Vanessa Kirby's Schiaparelli gown delivered an interesting twist with its peplum detail while the midi-length skirt trimmed in gold buttons down the back perfectly showed off her simple black sky-high heels. A dark lip and sleek updo cemented this look as an elegant hit this month.
_
The Louis Vuitton show during Paris Fashion Week should have been held on Halloween! Here's Jennifer Connelly arriving at the Spring/Summer 2023 presentation on Oct. 4 in costume-like garb that included a strange embellished dress with a slit, a multicolored jacket and knee-high embroidered heeled boots.
_
As usual, Kristen Stewart made Chanel fit her own personal style when she attended the brand's womenswear Spring/Summer 2023 show during Paris Fashion Week on Oct. 4. We liked the edgier vibe — the pinstriped long-sleeved top with the Chanel logo worked well with the classic tweed miniskirt. Combat boots rounded out the look, which also saw Kristen rocking a familiar hairdo…
_
Yikes! Salma Hayek's look at the "Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths" premiere during the 66th BFI London Film Festival in London on Oct. 8 left a lot to be desired. The star turned up in this bizarre Bottega Veneta combo — a lime green knee-length dress topped with a mismatched black jacket. Short booties didn't help matters.
_
This dress makes us excited for spring! Paris Jackson arrived at the Stella McCartney Spring/Summer 2023 show during Paris Fashion Week on Oct. 3 in this colorful floral-embellished minidress with matching tassel details. The model-musician added brown boots to keep things cool and casual.
_
Tracee Ellis Ross is known for taking fashion risks, but they don't always pay off. While heading to the "Today" show studios in New York City on Oct. 11, the actress rocked this all-over spring-ready Carolina Herrera jumpsuit complete with a ruffle detail coming off a high neck and a bold floral print that continued all the way down to her shoes.
_
Melissa McCarthy scored a fashion hit with this chevron-print frock at the 2022 Industry Dance Awards in Los Angeles on Oct. 12. We loved the metallic flair and the way she accessorized with a classic black Gucci belt, a stack of bracelets and a studded clutch.
_
Kyle Richards rocked not one plunging neckline but two at the "Halloween Ends" premiere in Los Angeles on Oct. 11. The reality star's David Koma design included two different risky dips with a sparkly silver border that we didn't quite understand. Though we weren't crazy about the dress, we did appreciate her two-tone black-and-white pumps.
