Pretty but plain
September 17, 2021
For me, these outfits were beautiful, but didn’t capture the shock or “museum exhibit” factor that they usually have, like 2019’s CAMP theme did. Some of them looked plain overdone, like singer Olivia Rodrigo’s outfit, which looked like it was ripped from a 2018 red carpet. On the other hand, singer Madison Beer and actress Hailey Bieber’s dresses looked like they were prom dresses on clearance at the mall. It was these outfits that made me think, “Their makeup looks were their only saving grace.”
As for the men’s side, I felt like any of them who weren’t in the default black tuxedo were going above and beyond. Despite the low bar, some of the outfits still disappointed Actor Timothee Chalamet’s all-white outfit looked like a fencer’s uniform. He paired it with white Converse high tops, which did not make the outfit more appealing.
