GQ Men Of The Year 2021
The GQ Men of the Year 2021 took place at Tate Modern on Wednesday (September 1) in London.
It appears to be the same night that all the stylists in London had the night off, because this has to be in the running for the worst dressed event of the year.
Mabel wore a Fendi Fall 2021 set which instantly reminded me of the crushed Fendi look which AdĂšle Exarchopoulos wore during the 2021 Cannes Film Festival this year.
As you know I love Vivienne Westwood.
Youâll never hear me say that I am tired of her classic corseted designs, yet this orange taffeta mini dress worn by Winnie Harlow is the exception.
Taffeta rarely looks good in my opinion, then you factor in that there’s just too much going on here and this is a bit of a mess.
Looking at the grass skirt, this could’ve been worst.
The same can be said about Julien Macdonald. Another designer I love despite knowing what he is going to present each season.
Would I buy this from JLo? Probably.
So why canât I keep the same energy for Maya Jama?
I think it has a lot to do with the way the dress is squeezing the life out of her chest.
I have sensed from the comments, that many feel that Emma Corrin’s style is a bit too…extra. And that she was trying too hard, and doing too much.
Personally, I loved every minute.
So you might be happy that with her return to the red carpet that she toned things down wearing this custom black chiffon dress from Harris Reed styled with Roker shoes.
Dina Asher-Smith’s Mugler graphic wave print dress with dramatic cut-outs passed the test in terms of not being all that bad in terms of the print, yet I didnât find it very flattering for the Olympic athlete.
Maybe it’s just me, but I wouldn’t want to wear something that would accentuate my broad shoulders.
I did love Maisie Williamsâ vintage Alexander McQueen gown. The embroidery is exquisite, I just canât get on board with this blonde eyebrow trend.
Make is stop.
After rocking pink hair all summer, Anne-Marie returned to platinum blonde.
She wore a sensual Alex Perry Colton leopard print dress with built-in opera gloves styled with Bvlgari jewels.. The trouble is….
…Sabrina Elba had the same idea. Awks.
She gets to go home with Idris Elba, so she’s winning every damn day.
I love Alex Scott, as she used to play for my favourite football team.
Her style is usually impeccable, but between the eye makeup and the shoes I failed to get onboard with this Lanvin Spring 2021 look.
You may be surprised to learn that Neelam Gillâs dress if from Khaite, as itâs giving off MĂŽnot, Mugler vibes.
The model’s Khaite Frida ribbed-knit midi dress was styled with my favourite Jimmy Choo Thyra embellished sandals.
Honestly, even with the feather boa, I really liked this Victoria Beckham Resort 2022 dress on Alexa Chung. She has the personality to pull this off.
Erin O’Connor is here to save us, and up the taste level wearing a plush velvet purple three-piece Temperley London suit.
Pixie Lott, who has been Team Dolce for best part of 10 years, switched gears wearing a micro mini from Versace.
I feel like she was trying to tap into her inner Kate Moss, but this look doesn’t have Kate’s je ne sais quoi.
My favourite part of this look were her shoes.
Ellie Goulding has been known for her extravagant looks, but in this lilac BOSS one sleeve dress, she stood out for all the right reasons.
I adore the mint green sandals with this dress.
Am I alone in feeling like this Blumarine Fall 2021 red dress is a little dated on Raye?
There is something about her styling that always make me feel like I’m observing a red carpet from a few decades ago.
I have a feeling I would’ve loved this on someone like Vanessa Kirby.
We have another re-run from Kathryn Newton, as this Valentino Fall 2021 gown was worn during the Cannes Film Festival by Marina Ruy.
