Chrissy Teigen in Marchesa at the Met Gala: the worst?

Chrissy Teigen was in this monstrosity of a Marchesa gown, of course, with white poofy gathered flowers and fussy lace on top of black netting. She paired it with wet look hair. Chrissy helped design this for maximum fuggery. She told People ahead of the event that she wanted “to make a statement for sure,” but that her dress would “be really beautiful and simple.” FAIL. I don’t know how anyone can look at this gown and not grimace. Just get a load of those sleeves and that stupid hem with the giant flowers.

I didn’t see her on the red carpet last night because no one pays attention to Rita Ora, but her red Marchesa gown is so much better, right? It’s too much but that’s what the event needed, and the wide draped threaded pieces and bows really work I think. This dress fits the theme and it’s inventive. I even like the nude tulle under the skirt. I wouldn’t expect this from Georgina Chapman at all. Also I like Rita’s shock blonde helmet hair.

I wonder how Chrissy feels to get upstaged by Rita Ora.

    Nope to all those dresses.

    Why, Chrissy, why?

    • Sunglasses Aready says:

      Some advice to Chrissy and the chick in the red dress. Just say no next time.

  3. naomipaige says:

    TACKY!!!!!! And that’s not just her personality, it’s her wardrobe as well.

  4. Nicole says:

    Is it upstaging if no one pays attention to you? I don’t love Rita’s dress but it’s an okay look.
    I don’t love Chrissy’s dress but I don’t completely hate it. I wish she lost the volume at the sleeves and shoulder.

  5. Aiobhan Targaryen says:

    Stop lying. Rita looks just as bad as Chrissy. This is such a waste of material.

    Rita’s lipstick looks nice, though.

  6. Esmom says:

    Yuck on both. And Georgina looks really different, not in a good way.

  7. Daisy says:

    I mean, for all her famewhoring, Rita at least is famous on her own, and not because she’s someone’s wife.

  8. Jack Daniels is my patronus says:

    I love Rita’s for this theme. I would never wear it obviously, but I think it totally works. Don’t like Chrissy’s dress at all though

  9. applepie says:

    Chrissy looks tired? Perhaps its her makeup, dunno. The black lace makes her legs look really pale compared to her top half. They also look really thin too. I think she may be pregnant again…looking at her tummy. Chrissy normally looks great, this is not a good look.

    • detritus says:

      Yeah, I noticed the tummy area too.
      There’s so much going on with that dress, maybe it’s a distraction?

    • amilu says:

      This was also my first thought (that she may be pregnant again).

    • InVain says:

      Totally saw the same thing. I’m guessing baby #2.

    • Elisa the I. says:

      yep, her upper thigh looks weird – somehow thinner than her calf? She looks tired and worn-out and the dress is doing her no favors…

  10. Missy says:

    I think Rita fit the theme really well.

  11. KatM says:

    Oh my gosh, Tiegen’s dress is SO bad. What is that? It is like a feather implosion with black tulle tacked to the bottom. Rita’s dress is very nice. I really liked her dress. It kind of reminds me of the 80s.

  12. Neelyo says:

    This post is like Candy Spelling’s gift wrapping room vomited.

  13. mkyarwood says:

    I feel like Chrissy’s dress started out okay, then someone spilled something on the design somewhere around the fourth rib.

  14. Jen says:

    I actually like Chrissy but…”simple?” What?

  15. HadleyB says:

    LOVE the red, and the white one is great. They both look great.

  16. Lucy2 says:

    That looks like one Marchesa dress ate another, threw it up, and put it on Chrissy. Horrible to the extreme.

  17. GingerCrunch says:

    Best thing about Chrissy’s look is John’s coordinating jacket. He looks lovely!

  18. QQ says:

    I honestly cannot stop Laughing about whatever is happening to Rita Ora’s Hair here (lets give her consistency on that, FUG hair and clothes) .. That said this is NOT the worst thing Rita has ever worn? is downright pretty for Her… (Yes Her, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Amanda Peet, Dunham, Klum all go through their own TERRIBLE FOR REGULAR ANYONE ELSE BUT THIS IS WHAT YOU DO SO OK WE’LL STAY HERE AT THE BASEMENT Scale)

  19. Shelley says:

    Rita Ora looks amazing. I love the dress, and it is Met Gala appropriate.

  20. Avery says:

    Chrissy’s face looks botoxed? One side looks like it hasn’t settle yet? It’s weird.

  21. Ck says:

    Why is Rita ora there… WHAT DOES SHE DO

  22. Hollz says:

    I LOVE Rita Oras dress! Except the nude tulle in the front. It’s fine in the back, but not in the front. Chrissy…I love her, but this dress is a hard NO.

  23. Kay says:

    I’m guessing the theme had to do with spring flowers. Or colors?

  24. Pandy says:

    Wow, I quite like Rita’s look, all over. Hair, dress … I’m surprised. Chrissy … not so much. Perhaps it’s the bitch face? She looks like she now realizes her dress looks like it’s made from kleenex wedding flowers …

    I wanna marry a hideously overweight and old millionaire director and start designing dresses for desperate stars too! Just glue and a fabric warehouse to make my dreams come true!

  26. Dazeaway says:

    Chrissy used to be so voluminous and her baby cheeks are gone. She has gotten way too thin, you can really tell by the size of her legs… so tiny.
