While some celebrities were dressed to impress on the red carpet in 2024, others struggled to find their fashion footing.

The list includes Emerald Fennell at the BAFTAs, Lainey Wilson at the People’s Choice Awards, Ali Wong at the SAG Awards, Jessica Chastain at the Independent Spirit Awards, JoJo Siwa at the iHeartRadio Music Awards, Lauren Sánchez at the Met Gala and many more.
