Fashion Awards 2024 WORST dressed: Ellie Goulding dons a bizarre sleeping bag style coat dress as she joins Rita Ora, Myleene Klass and Laura Whitmore leading the lame red carpet looks

Must read

Ellie Goulding, Rita Ora, Myleene Klass and Laura Whitmore all failed to impress with their looks as they hit the red carpet at the 2024 Fashion Awards in London on Monday evening. 

Ellie, 37, swamped herself in a huge white sleeping bag style coat dress to walk the Royal Albert Hall’s red carpet in rare fashion faux pas for the singer. 

Meanwhile Rita, 34, seemingly tried and failed to channel the late great David Bowie in an oversized grey suit with her hair styled into blonde spikes.

She then only made matters worse by adding a whole host of extra large silver accessories in numerous earrings in both ears. 

Elsewhere Myleene, 46, seemingly missed the dress coat all together for the swanky bash and turned up in skimpy white hot pants and a matching crop top. 

She also wore a pair of knee-high white leather boots and draped herself in a sheepskin style jacket.

Sharing his appreciation for London, the designer gushed in his speech: ‘I have lived in London longer than any other city. I moved to the Gucci design studio in the 90s and when I started my own label I chose to do it here.

‘There is so much life here, so much creativity, and so much of it is present here tonight. It is for me the most inspirational city in the world and I am so happy and so lucky to call it home.’

Bridgerton star Nicola Coughlan and American actress Kelly Rutherford took to the stage to award Simone Rocha with British womenswear designer for the year, while Grace Wales Bonner won British menswear designer of the year.
