Florence Welch in shiny green Givenchy: so rock ‘n’ roll or too much?

Florence Welch

Florence Welch brought her wild and weird vibe to the Grammy Awards last night. She worked every inch of a shiny and studded, jade green Givenchy design that was actually a runway design way back in 2009. I can’t think of another artist who could have pulled this off at the Grammys last night. This color looks fantastic on Florence with her bright red locks, and the face-framing fringe somewhat softens her already dramatic facial features. Florence doesn’t usually show a lot of skin, but that thigh slit is just right. And she didn’t try to pull a Jolie either — this look is all Florence.

Katy Perry

Katy Perry and her massive rack chose to shake things up (compared to her pre-Grammys looks) with a mint-colored Gucci dress that put her boobs front and center. This dress is actually probably pushing it for CBS’ ridiculous dress code, but whatever. It’s the Grammys! This dress actually wasn’t bad — the fit was great, and that little train was just right. If anything, the color was completely wrong. A jewel tone would have been better than a shade generally found upon Easter eggs.

Allison Williams

Allison Williams was also in attendance as Katy Perry’s “date,” which means … I have no idea. At this point (and it sounds terrible, I know), I would believe it if you told me that she, Katy, and John Mayer were partner swapping. Anyway, Allison wore a rather frumpy Kaufmanfranco gown that didn’t do anything to highlight her shape and (from far away) looked like it was made of the same material as the sails on pirate ships. It’s a very simple dress though, which fits the fact that she was only there for fun and not to take attention away from the artists being recognized. Up close, her gown was prety sparkly though, and her hair is just gorgeous.

Kaley Cuoco

Kaley Cuoco wisely decided to trash those awful clip-on bangs that she wore for the SAGs. She also chose to go against the general formal trend with leather pants, a white t-shirt, and a jacket by Amen. I actually like this look! It’s very hair-band rock ‘n’ roll in a classier way than Axl Rose used to wear it.

Amber Rose

Amber Rose and Wiz Khalifa also walked the red carpet together. Amber’s dress wore a dress by Donna Karan, and her most important accessory (of course) was her huge baby bump. I love how Wiz seems to worship her.

    THe dress colour is absolutely drop dead gorgeous, and I like the rock and roll makeup.

    But looking like a lizard is neither rock and roll nor cool, just ugly and silly.

  2. YummyMummy says:

    Big alligator terrible dress!
    Also Katie’s body looks fabulous!

  3. TheOriginalKitten says:

    Are Florence and Sean Penn still together?

    I hate that Whiz Khalifa is with that Amber Rose chick.

  4. Rachel says:

    Dammmmmn. Amber Rose has been pregnant for forever and a day.

    I would’ve loved the green dress without the studs. She looks like a plastic dinosaur.

    • emmie_a says:

      Yes & yes… It’s a fancy dinosaur gown & I feel like Ashley has been pregnant longer than Jessica Simpson.

  5. pamspam says:

    Florence’s look is somewhat reminiscent of a dinosaur…yet I don’t hate it! Katy…no. Very Texas cheerleader mom. Such a pretty girl – wish she’d lighten the hair just a bit. I think it’s too harsh.

    • pamspam says:

      sorry – the other dinosaur comments weren’t showing yet when i posted mine…didn’t mean to be so unoriginal!

  6. cloud&feather says:

    She killed Bowser and wore him on the red carpet?

  7. Dani says:

    I think Kailey was one of the best dressed last night. Definitely an outfit I’d wear. Katy’s body is unrealllll.

  8. bea says:

    Florence’s dress is kind of gimmicky and her hair and make-up don’t really “go” with her futuristic dinosaur look.

  9. bsh says:

    Alison Williams as Katy Perry’s date?? Seems to me like someone wants to put all the rumors at rest.. By the way, Alison lost A LOT of weight since Girls’s first season.

    • Ericka says:

      Agree! She is scary skinny with a case of bobblehead going on. I wonder why no one else is really saying how dramatic her weight loss is!?

  10. Janet says:

    Florence rocked that dress it was totally her.

  11. vvvoid says:

    Wiz is adorable. Amber is lucky, I think she found someone who truly loves her and would do anything for her. I would be really shocked and saddened to find out he cheated with groupies or whatever, I hope that never happens, because he seems like the opposite of that kind of guy.

    Katy Perry’s boobs look awesome. If she had an ass and if I was taller our bodies would be identical, it’s weird how much her torso, down to the belly button placement, is like mine. So weird. I don’t even like her.

  12. Riana says:

    Aww Amber, When you’re happy it shows.

    If there’s ever a man who should be accused of sucking the life force out of his dates it should be Kanye not Kutcher.

    When she was with Kanye I didn’t even know she could smile. Now all she does is smile and laugh, and Wiz is so into her. Like my Mom would say He clearly is planning baby no 2,3, and 4.

    • RMJ says:

      I agree! She’s really adorable. I don’t love the dress but she just looks so beautiful and happy all the time.

    • sally says:

      Absolutely. Her and Wiz make such an adorable couple. I totally believe her when she said that Kanye cheated on her, with Kim Kardashian no less. Kanye wasn’t into her as Wiz is. They’re sooo in love!

  13. Thiajoka says:

    Flo looks great and wears the hell out of that dress, which is gorgeous. The best I can say about Katy Perry is that at least she has a normal hair-color for a change.

  14. Lexie says:

    i love florence’s music so much i really don’t care what she wears.
    katy perry…no. just no.

  15. aims says:

    I really like what Flo is selling. I think the color looks really good on her. The make up softens her very sharp features. She is the winner in this lot. By the way, just looking at Amber makes my lower back hurt.

  16. Amanda W says:

    I’m not really fond of green, but Florence looks great!

  17. judyjudy says:

    Wiz and Amber standing next to one another look like the number 10. Hee hee..

  18. Scarlet Vixen says:

    Okay, I just have to say that I HATE that Florence insists on wearing dark lipstick–it looks horrible on her. Women with such thin lips shouldn’t wear dark lipcolors–it really ages her. I would love the dress on someone else I think.

    Katy Perry’s body is out of this world. When she walked across the stage and you could see how the dress clung to every inch perfectly my jaw dropped. After having a baby 11 weeks ago I’m hella jealous of her figure! Sadly, my body will never look like that again.

  19. Whiskeylove says:

    I’ve never been a fan of Florence Welch’s style even though I love her music. I feel like she’s always being pushed on us as some sort of fashion icon when in reality her fashion sense is pretentious and she usually looks fug. She takes entire looks from a runway show and wears it head to toe with no imagination or personal spin put in to it! To me that’s what real style is. She reminds me of ‘the emperors new clothes’

    Katy Perry’s body… WOW! It was an ugly dress but much better than the novelty pieces she usually goes for. Trying to keep it sexy for John πŸ˜‰

  20. eileen says:

    Ok-I have to get this off my chest.
    I LOVE Katy Perry!! UGH! I think she’s adorable and I *swallow* like her music!
    Feels good to come out of the Sugar Pop Closet…..
    But that dress-no. The fit is gorgeous and her body is to die for, but it looks like there’s grapes hanging off the middle. Oy.

    • TheOriginalKitten says:

      It’s ok-I love Sky Ferreira.

      Phew. I feel better too, Eileen. Maybe no one will remember when we confessed our secret shame(s).

  21. Tig says:

    I have to admit- I loved Katy’s dress- liked the color. She has amazing breasts- so why not go for it! Prefer this with those who squish the implants flat and spillage!

    Florence is so pretty. She’s working the Tilda Swinton/Cate Blanchette “edgy/fashion forward” angle, but even they couldn’t pull off the nobs/bumps or whatever they are. Love the color on her.

  22. jc126 says:

    I hate that Katy Perry just always makes everything about her boobs. Plus her talent is rather thin.

  23. lady mary. says:

    florence had a Trinosaurus rex killed and used its hide as a dress ,hope she gets cast in ice age 5

  24. Micah says:

    I think Florence looks amazing in that dress!

    Katy on the other hand….nothing against the dress….it’s actually quite pretty, but Katy manages too make it look cheap and unappealing.

  25. lola lola says:

    Why doesn’t Florence ever have a professional do her hair & makeup? It always looks terrible. Poor woman, she’s quite pretty but has absolutely no personal style!
    And Katy Perry knows which side her bread is buttered..

  26. G says:

    Katy is still a twit, but wow, as I she looks great having dropped her overly costumey style of dressing.

  27. Aurelia says:

    Now katy shows us what a perfect tit job can look like.

  28. Yael says:

    i’m always left wondering: are katy’s boobs real or not?

    • Pop! says:

      I think they’re real. I’m a 32e, small and an hourglass and my big boobs occurred naturally. They don’t look fake to me because they look squishy and malleable, if that makes sense.

  29. MG says:

    The color of Flo’s dress is gorgeous. It’s the Grammy’s…so she can get away with looking like a dinosaur. Katy’s body is my idea of perfection. Kaley looks great and was probably super comfy all night. And I love Wiz…something about him. He just seems like a great dude.

  30. Nance says:

    How can you sit with those spikes on your ass?

  31. kitty says:

    The pic where katy is touching her hair.. Is it just me or is it very kate middletonish

  32. NEENAZEE says:

    Florence is awesome… her music, her style, her willingness to be different. Yes, there’s something off about the dress but she totally carries it. And Kaley looks phenom in the leather leggings… I love rocker chicks!!

    Katy Perry is so fake and so annoying I can’t even pay attention anymore. And why does every young girl in Hollywood have to go thru the phase that Alison Williams is clearly in? Starved to death, bony and protruding elbows, flat chest… all showcased in a strapless dress. Ugh.

  33. poppy says:

    i like the sleestak dress. it suits her and probably not going to see anyone else in it, ever.
    katy’s hair color is too dark -looks flat like a wig.
    is she still going to be hauling her puppies out every red carpet when she’s 80? i also thought those were “grapes” on her chestle area. her dress color isn’t all that.
    just can’t with either of them because of their choice in men. well, i really hope florence isn’t or wasn’t with sean asshat nobody loves me penn. i’m not even a fan but like to think she knows better and has self-respect/esteem enough to stay away. already know katy perry has had that grody moron loser all up in her business. yuck.

    the black beaded dress is amazing. not sure what’s not quite right, maybe her hair. never even heard of her.

    wiz is adorable and i agree, AR looks over the moon. i don’t think i have ever seen that sort of devotion paid to a SO on the red carpet. he’s so serious. sweet. warms my cold crabby heart.

  34. silver says:

    I know this is a massive understatement, but pregnancy does not look comfortable o_0

  35. carol says:

    Welch’s dress was gorgeous until I saw the last pic and realized (with a snicker) that she is probably unable to sit down in that dress.

    Can someone explain why no one likes Katy Perry’s look this time? I dont like her as a person but I think the cut and colour of the dress suits her well!

  36. Angel says:

    Love Florence, but hate the dress. She looks like The Creature From The Black Lagoon.

  37. khaveman says:

    It’s a gorgeous color and texture. I like that she took a risk and she is a SINGER. Let her be edgy.

  38. CocoBelly says:

    Amber does look glowingly happy. Good for her.

  39. Patrice says:

    Wiz and Amber are my favorite, I just adore them together πŸ˜€ She’s so pretty and look how handsome he is in his suit! I totally agree w/Bedhead: he is completely smitten πŸ™‚

    P.S. I have no idea why and actress from
    a terrible tv show would be at the Grammys (did she present?) but Kaley Cuoco has SERIOUS mouth issues that never cease to bug. Girlfriend is always doing that riduculous pursed lipped/pucker face in just about every picture or interview I see her in…It’s like a version of J. Lo’s delusional open-mouthed “sexy” face. Ugh. Why??

  40. Blenheim says:

    Katy Perry should just put her boobs on her forehead and be done with it.

  41. wendy says:

    I think Florence’s makeup colors age her.
    And I kind of feel like maybe she should be a different shade of redhead.
    I dig her carazy Givenchy dress though.

  42. xoxokaligrl says:

    At least Florence Welch tried something different. It looks hilarious though.

    Katie Perry should consult a workout plan if she still wants to dress like a slut, since it looks like shes drinking too much and getting soft.

    Allison Williams played it safe so it looks ok.

    Kaley might have pulled it off if she hemmed her pants, and had the jacket fitted. Instead it looks like she borrowed it from her trendy brother.

    Wiz Kalifa and whatsherface always look awful.
