2009 MTV Europe Music Awards

This post is for all those whiny kittens who said we’ve been Negative Nancies lately.

Beyonce

Atelier Versace Fall 2009 Couture Collection

If there’s anyone who SHOULD be wearing this spectacular dress, it’s Beyonce. It’s perfectly her aesthetic (except, y’know, fabulous and well made).

David Koma Fall 2009 Collection

On the other hand…

Look, we think it’s a really interesting dress and we salute her (or her stylist) for choosing it, but it’s not really doing her figure any favors. Then again, who has a figure that would be helped with that silhouette? Barbie?

Juliette Lewis

We J’ADORE this bitch. We don’t normally care about celebrities (no, really) but she’s so insane and in your face that we always kind of wished we could hang out with her for one night. Normally she goes out looking like ten miles of crazy, but this is actually a stylish and well put-together look.

Katy Perry

Marchesa Spring 2010 Collection

She never looked so good. Full stop.

Viktor & Rolf Spring 2010 Collection

When we first featured this collection, a lot of people asked of this dress specifically, “Who would wear that?” Well, now you know. We love it.

Leona Lewis

Custom-made Vivienne Westwood

It’s pure Westwood and it’s perfect for the event. She’s rocking the hell out of it. Too much? Darling, it IS the MTV Awards, after all.

Lil’ Kim

Yes, we’re even going to be nice to L’il Kim. While no one could rightfully call this getup tasteful (or fitted well), it’s probably one of the most coherent and least offensive outfits we’ve ever seen her in. She’s all “Control”-era Janet up top and Cleopatra Jones on the bottom

Shakira

Vintage Versace dress

Yeah, yeah. It’s tight, short and shiny, but it’s also a clean and simple look, which she wisely accentuated with toned-down styling. And the shoes are KILLA.
