Lady Gaga wore a Valentino trash bag to the Governors Awards: goth-fab or goth-fug?
The 2018 Governors Awards were held last night in LA. The Governors Awards have become a really, really big deal in recent years – that’s where the AMPAS hands out their honorary and lifetime achievement Oscars, and it’s basically a mini-Oscars ceremony, only it isn’t televised nationally or internationally. Oscar winners get to make longer speeches, and be truly honored for their work, and everyone Oscar campaigning shows up in their best gowns and tuxedos. These are just some of the photos from the event, which got an amazing turnout this year, so much so that I can’t even fit all of the photos into one post. In fairness, there was a lot of boring style that’s not even worth discussing.
Lady Gaga was probably the most extra, as befitting her status as the biggest hustler during this awards season. She wore a Valentino trash bag that looks like it’s made of taffeta? It’s a goth mess but I sort of love it.
Amy Adams in Schiaparelli Couture. LOL @ “couture.” I love Amy, but she wears the most boring gowns. This one is simple and pretty, so I’ll give her that.
Emily Blunt in Dundas Spring 2019. I like her in sparkly gold. I dislike her in a “crop top” gown. Please don’t let this style come back!
Rosamund Pike in a Givenchy jumpsuit. I love this. I love how ‘70s it feels. She could have done more with her hair and styling though.
Gemma Chan in one of the worst Stella McCartney dresses I’ve seen in a while. Every so often, Stella has to pop up and remind us that she’s a terrible designer.
Saoirse Ronan in Calvin Klein, and she’s giving me major Evan Rachel Wood vibes.
Speaking of goth… Elizabeth Debicki in Giambattista Valli Fall 2018, with black lipstick. I love this too, but I love the goth revival.
Emma Stone in custom Louis Vuitton. It’s not a total disaster, but those straps look uncomfortable.
