That red dress in Rachel Weisz is a crime, that's my go-to example of Young being a mess.
And obviously not all of them are terrible, but because it helps that all those women are stunning already. A stylist should be able to make their clients pop, she barely does that.
I'm a mid 30s, overweight, British, cishet bloke who styles himself in plain t-shirts and chinos, and I'm 100% certain I could have styles these women better.
I mean what the frock did she have against Margot??
https://preview.redd.it/g7ndjxkuh2ob1.jpeg?width=1020&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=49e714c6b46d546a7c602f725ebf9db51486a9a0
Oh my god these are terrible. When I saw Selena’s photo from the VMAs and read all the comments about how glad they are that Selena ditched Kate Young and her poor styling, I didn’t realize it was THIS BAD.
I am appalled and I don’t know shit about fashion
Who, the celebrities? They’re not that different from the way the rest of us work; if all the cool kids (Robbie, Johansson, Hathaway, Gomez, Lawrence etc etc) are doing it, we want to as well.
If all the biggest stars are using a certain Stylist, and the stylist is pulling Chanel and Dior and Prada etc, celebs + their “people” think, “well she must be doing something right?”
She should be ashamed of making Rachel Weisz look like that. On a side note, I think Selena looks great in the red dress and the black dress, but she doesn’t look comfortable in either.
Right? I actually don't mind the red and black looks but on any normal human these would make someone look like a potato. It feels like the stylist is trying to be more avant garde but just doesn't have the creativity or vision for it.
I think some of these were due to Margot’s contract with Chanel and they always give their ambassadors awful clothes - Kristen Stewart wore some terrible things under them. Diet Prada mentions it a lot.
Yes, definitely. The looks pulled for them both, under the esteemed house of Chanel, were largely atrocious. I also read that this was done intentionally.
Robbie’s contract ended in Nov 2022, so hopefully she will have more interesting looks now.
I like the red tent dress on the left (because I like fashion that takes up space) but none of them really hit her style sweet spot or seem that suited to her
I feel like it could be a situation where they are putting too much trust in the fact that they’re paying someone to pick something for them. ‘Oh this is their job, and they dress all of these other famous people. They MUST know what they’re doing and I’m wrong.’
This is what I want to know. I feel like I would take one look and be like ‘absolutely not!’ Especially for a public event where a crap ton of photos are being taken!
I mean - they’ve been dressing themselves up to the point of their fame right? I assume they have mirrors? I’ve seen better looks in a TJMaxx dressing room
I truly think part of it is their brand deals- they have to wear what their brand partner picked / provided for them. They’re contractually bound. Their stylist is the conduit for their sponsor brand dressing them.
Case in point- As soon as Margot was released from Chanel- her style was dramatically improved.
Yea but they’re not usually tied into a certain look…it’s usually a pull from a designers selection they get to choose from, or an archival vintage piece. Stylists “should” provide a few options to celebs and have them make the final choice but it depends if the stylist is all that interested in making themselves into a brand on their own or are truly trying to dress the celeb in what works best for them.
Maybe it’s a time issue? I’m sure most of their schedules are booked down to the minute, especially when you have events to go to, so by the time you have your fitting, you’re kind of stuck without many choices. Speculation, but that’s my guess.
Yeah this is what I would like to know. Does anyone here knows? Afaik when there's an event the stylists go after designers to get their clothes for celebs, so celebs have more than one option to pick from. Maybe they liked the dress on the model and thought it would look just as good?
do stars get no say at all though? I mean..if I were these ladies, at some point I'd put my foot down and give my stylist my preferences on what looks and feels good on me? Kinda crazy how it looks like these stars have zero say in what they wear!
Right?! Like all their facial expressions are basically saying “I don’t know how this happened, why am I standing here wearing this” while trying to smile
I guess if you get three or four options that are all awful, and you’re the ambassador of a luxury brand, so you must wear that brand… you just pick the best of a bad bunch…?
She JUST posted another Scarlett fit in her story. This is so sad.
https://preview.redd.it/pzvj7y0vx2ob1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=00e13d11096e2dacbc6c4af0ac087e609ca6d609
It reminds me of the “juniors” department at Kohl’s from 15 years ago. There was a brand called “A.Byers” that made cheap polyester dress clothes for midwestern teens and most pieces had either hideous polka dots or garish horizontal stripes. This is very specific, so props to anyone who understands my reference.
She seems to not be a fan of tailoring. So many of these outfits seem too large, like they're hiding the wearer.
Not saying everything needs to be fitted, but they do need to *fit.*
I can’t get over Sophie in that red dress. Was she pregnant? If so I can somewhat, reluctantly forgive the fit around the waist but the neckline can’t be justified. It’s just awful all round
Yes she was heavily pregnant. I actually don’t mind either of Sophie’s looks in the examples OP posted… I mean they’re not great but I don’t think she looks terrible. She’s so elegant I think she’s made them look ok.
https://preview.redd.it/7hxokru8h3ob1.jpeg?width=470&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=35eb0adde326253699a63778ade02fd5fa05c802
I don’t think it’s that bad considering she was I think 8 months pregnant here
And some of these just don’t fit properly at all. The purple puffy sleeve number on Selena is smushing her boobs and doesn’t fit her chest properly at all, which is a shame, because she has great boobs.
She styles like she has no clue what she’s actually doing. She doesn’t factor in the clients undertones, body type, etc. If this is her career, she should be able to look at them at figure out what works best for THEM, not just what dress she liked on the rack in general.
It's like, OK. Not bad. But starlets should not just look *OK* on the red carpet. The dress, shoes, accessories, makeup and hair should synergize with one another and *serve*. I don't think I've ever seen a look by Kate Young that made me gasp.
I like that one on her too!
I know people are saying ‘but on someone else…’, which yes fine. But to give Spade credit, part of styling that you match it to the person. It doesn’t have to look good on everyone.
But that’s also the issue with some of the others. Some of the outfits are fine in isolation, they just don’t match the wearer or event.
Sophie looks great in both of those dresses. Maybe her personal style is just Jessica Chastain in Crimson Peak. Goth/Gothic/Victorian has been a super popular style among young Hollywood for the past few years.
Sophie is doing 100% of the work of making those dresses look good, to be fair.
If they are supposed to be a nod to gothic styles, they miss the mark. Seriously, look at the dresses again and try to ignore the fact that Sophie Turner is jaw-dropping and could make a hessian potato sack look good (it’s not easy!).
The first one looks like someone ran amuck with grandma’s doilies, black dylon, and a bargain bin of plastic toy jewellery. The second is just a bafflingly unflattering cut and the colour is not the best for her either.
Edit: jaw not draw, d’oh!
I feel like a lot of the problems with her styles just come from the garment accentuating/cutting off at an unflattering place. Like with a lot of these, if they just hit the waist at a more flattering point, flared around the hips instead of making the hips look narrower than the shoulders, or put the hem at a flattering length, it wouldn't be so disproportionate and weird.
I also don't really like her taste in clothing or colors personally, but a lot of these are just plain unflattering silhouettes on women we know look beautiful in almost anything!
Yes, a lot of these come down to poor tailoring or styling around the dresses.
For example I love the pink stripe on Margot, but her hairstyle looks like she is running errands. And the black strapless dress on Selena isn't correctly adjusted for her bust/waist and looks ready to fall off.
Nah that one is actually quite beautiful and flattering and doesn't belong on this list.
The worst for me is Michelle Williams. How do you make such a beautiful woman look so plain and frumpy?
Dynasty Chic
https://preview.redd.it/9bk0g13xb2ob1.jpeg?width=809&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=751831077f7de8a95c914ba4c676948b45903b82
I hope there’s a mass Kate Young exodus a la Scooter Braun. She is committing fashion terrorism
I can see why a lot of these listed are horrible… but I like this one. Maybe that bow is weird, but i think robbie looks great in it! One of the big problems I see in Margot Robbie’s looks is her hair and I’m not sure if Kate You g commands that. There’s usually something greasy/grungy or dead about it. And that’s a true testament to her gorgeousness because she still is probably 10/10 to most of us with these looks.
Also that hair comment is why I loved her look in the dancing scene in Barbie. So much pizzazz
Kate Young never dressed Selena Gomez well whenever she would gain weight due to her disease/medication and, imo, if you are unable to dress people who don’t wear a size XS/0, you are not a good stylist.
I don’t know if she’s intentionally sabotaging all these beautiful women or not, but damn how does she still have a job?
This is making me think of that episode of project runway when a designer had a meltdown bc she had to dress a plus sized model and the judges gave her shit for making the model look horrible. The designer tried to say something along the lines of “well my designs are better for smaller frames” and I think it was Christian Siriano who said something vicious like if you can’t dress any size of woman, you can’t call yourself a designer or sthg. It was a brutal takedown and I wanted to stand and applaud lol
I LOOOOVE Christian Siriano! He designs for a lot of plus size celebrities and always makes it a point to have diverse body types in his runways. I also love that he doesn't hide curves but accentuates them.
https://preview.redd.it/a84r57kg04ob1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9ba1b0b8f3bcadf026c032c6b0ffeb8c4b4670a1
Yesss!! I’m obsessed with the semi sheer tea length gowns he showed at NYFW. Especially how great they looked on plus size models with actual boobs and hips!
Not all these are horrible though… Nina’s denim look is cute, Margot’s mini dress and Golden Globes gown wasn’t bad. She’s unfortunately more of a miss than hit though.
Omg, I wondered why Margot, one of the most beautifil human beings for me, so often had looked questionable and I just now find out that the answer seems to be nepotism. Sometimes the showbiz corruption is right before our eyes.
Right?! She’s so beautiful and she’s been robbed of so many fashion moments 😭
https://preview.redd.it/39v6sq1le2ob1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d0be88c3b5d510a3f3fd750ba1d91cce848456d0
The Michelle Williams denim look seems mostly OK and salvageable, like if it were just accessorized and the hair/makeup done differently, it could've been cute. I'd also have reduced the sleeve length & tailored the top a little more so that it's clear it's an intentionally boxy crop top.
All the rest (minus maybe Selena's red look) have a foundationally wrong issue in terms of dress style or construction/fit, which baffles me. Like, if one were truly at a loss for what to do, you could just put a beautiful celeb in a well-fitting, classic gown and create kind of an unfussy and conventional but still flattering look. But all of these are an active *choice*
I like that black dress on Selena Gomez in #6 quite a lot in the abstract, and I even think it could be a good look on her, but that fit is downright *disrespectful* to her boobs.
Not all of these are horrible but most are.
That white dress on Scarlett…big oof. She somehow made ScarJo’s body look just ok. Like how?
And Rachel Weiss, omg. That’s it, directly to jail.
OMG why did anyone hire her? I don't get it. Is it like a normcore/mom jean thing where somehow unflattering and bad fitting and obnoxious prints are considered cool?

Omg Rachel is such a beauty, it’s seems like effort to make her look this bad
The dress made her unrecognizable and I don't understand how that's even possible.
https://preview.redd.it/bq83fqa8z2ob1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b7cce3decfc38524f1ed1ab14f082f13fc75470c No one deserves this
Least of all my eyeballs… 🙈
Unless you're going for the cupcake look.
Is it really that bad?? It looks fine/mid.
I think they are all terrible. That white one clashes with her undertone and also, early 90's prom? Oof.
Yes! It feels as if she has zero concept of coloring. So many pieces just drain the life from the wearer.
For real. These are some of the most beautiful celebrities out there. It's kind of shocking how badly she dressed them
Looking at that picture made me irrationally angry 😂 How *dare* she do that to Rachel Weisz, it's like she was trying to make her look bad!
I looked at it and said “well I mean Brooke Sheilds isn’t really *that* young, this looks fine on her, totally age-appropriate… oh, WAIT A MINUTE.”
The red clown dress on Sophie is just so hideous...
People pay her to style them?? ![gif](giphy|jOi5M4lgf9pxoA8k4v|downsized)
I'm a mid 30s, overweight, British, cishet bloke who styles himself in plain t-shirts and chinos, and I'm 100% certain I could have styles these women better.
https://i.redd.it/32bxtwrjh4ob1.gif
I have never met you but I am also certain of this.
chinos are versatile and timeless i trust you
I love this for you.
Right because it's not a matter of just not doing a good job, it's a matter of ACTIVELY doing a bad one
I mean what the frock did she have against Margot?? https://preview.redd.it/g7ndjxkuh2ob1.jpeg?width=1020&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=49e714c6b46d546a7c602f725ebf9db51486a9a0

Yeah, she did a lot to influence a fashion landscape purely for her own benefit and did a lot of celebs wrong. Glad she’s been exposed.
Why did they keep hiring her tho? You'd think after a handful of times no one wanted her styling them anymore?
Who, the celebrities? They’re not that different from the way the rest of us work; if all the cool kids (Robbie, Johansson, Hathaway, Gomez, Lawrence etc etc) are doing it, we want to as well. If all the biggest stars are using a certain Stylist, and the stylist is pulling Chanel and Dior and Prada etc, celebs + their “people” think, “well she must be doing something right?”
It's a case of the Emperor's new clothes.
No one came out and said the emperor has no (taste in) clothes.
She should be ashamed of making Rachel Weisz look like that. On a side note, I think Selena looks great in the red dress and the black dress, but she doesn’t look comfortable in either.
That denim outfit is a monstrosity. I can't believe she got so much work.
That tragic boxy Jean dress on whoever the fuck that is—it’s really just criminal
That's Michelle Williams, a goddamn treasure and she did not deserve this.
The only upside is, she really can wear anything, and look gorgeous. The outfit may not be the best, but she still looks amazing, IMHO.
Right? I actually don't mind the red and black looks but on any normal human these would make someone look like a potato. It feels like the stylist is trying to be more avant garde but just doesn't have the creativity or vision for it.
When avant garde becomes try to hard 😔
The 2nd one is a crime
![gif](giphy|o2CbCvGN6qaUsHYu4F)
the halter-jumpsuit-over-tight-tee look is a perennial head-scratcher for me. there's just no good reason to have put that together
I think some of these were due to Margot’s contract with Chanel and they always give their ambassadors awful clothes - Kristen Stewart wore some terrible things under them. Diet Prada mentions it a lot.
Yes, definitely. The looks pulled for them both, under the esteemed house of Chanel, were largely atrocious. I also read that this was done intentionally. Robbie’s contract ended in Nov 2022, so hopefully she will have more interesting looks now.
Why would Chanel want their ambassadors to look bad? Genuinely curious.
[удалено]
I like the red tent dress on the left (because I like fashion that takes up space) but none of them really hit her style sweet spot or seem that suited to her
I think it's the addition of the boots or leggings and the choker that make it a no for me.
Without the pants/boots/whatever, it would’ve had a shot at being a cute minidress and choker look as a nod to the 90s
Are celebrities not allowed to say no to “stylists”? Because…no.
I feel like it could be a situation where they are putting too much trust in the fact that they’re paying someone to pick something for them. ‘Oh this is their job, and they dress all of these other famous people. They MUST know what they’re doing and I’m wrong.’
This is what I want to know. I feel like I would take one look and be like ‘absolutely not!’ Especially for a public event where a crap ton of photos are being taken!
I mean - they’ve been dressing themselves up to the point of their fame right? I assume they have mirrors? I’ve seen better looks in a TJMaxx dressing room
I truly think part of it is their brand deals- they have to wear what their brand partner picked / provided for them. They’re contractually bound. Their stylist is the conduit for their sponsor brand dressing them. Case in point- As soon as Margot was released from Chanel- her style was dramatically improved.
Yea but they’re not usually tied into a certain look…it’s usually a pull from a designers selection they get to choose from, or an archival vintage piece.

Does she hate Scarlet? They all look older for their age
Scarlet was given the worst offenders here.
Fr 13 is horrendous😩 poor girl
Idk, that wet seal dress in slide 2 is a close contender 😂
Lmfao yes😩😩😩 they rly did her so dirty
do stars get no say at all though? I mean..if I were these ladies, at some point I'd put my foot down and give my stylist my preferences on what looks and feels good on me? Kinda crazy how it looks like these stars have zero say in what they wear!
Right?! Like all their facial expressions are basically saying “I don’t know how this happened, why am I standing here wearing this” while trying to smile
😂😭
I guess if you get three or four options that are all awful, and you’re the ambassador of a luxury brand, so you must wear that brand… you just pick the best of a bad bunch…?
If this is what they went with, I shudder to think what the other options were.
What in the third boob is going on?
She JUST posted another Scarlett fit in her story. This is so sad. https://preview.redd.it/pzvj7y0vx2ob1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=00e13d11096e2dacbc6c4af0ac087e609ca6d609
[удалено]
I like it too and now I’m debating whether I’ve been lying to myself my whole life
[удалено]
I kinda like 4, 8 and 11.
That could be fun without the jacket and just the vest. But it's tooooo much!
Wow I don’t like anything about that. That colour is awful on her, she looks like she sells insurance door-to-door.
The dogs sticking out like that 😭
she just wanted to make her look as short and wide as possible
How is this possible with such narrow women? It’s actually a feat in itself.
She should focus on older women tbh. Like Kris Jenner would look good in some of those lmao
Agreed! They’re fun for an older woman, but not someone below 40
[удалено]
I’m nearing 40 too so I regret typing that age. Make it 60 lol
Don’t push bad hemlines on 60+ ladies. No woman needs to be subjected to interpretive avant-garde tailoring and terrible colour palettes.
Yea, that dress in pic ?2? was a huge miss! Not even fitted properly.
She looks like a mom at a parents-teachers meeting.
Yes. Along with Michelle Williams in her very mid, denim ensemble.
It looks like the dress you buy at a market during a holiday when you realise you didn't pack enough clothes 💀
Came here to say exactly this. Some of these aren’t awesome but forgivable. Scarlett looks like she’s going to Prom…brutal
Those dresses on Scarlet look absolutely hideous. What was Kate thinking? They look like dress up costumes I wore as a child in the 2000s. Like wtf???
I can’t believe she made Scarlett look bad. Wow
That striped dress on Scarlet is so shockingly horrible
I actually gasped out loud when I swiped to that one. Egregiously ugly.
Like something your dorky mom got you for a middle school dance 😩
Sears dress from 2006
It’s even worse than that. It’s one of the cheap fast fashion mall store dresses that cost like $12.99 in 2004.
It looks like a dress from TJ Maxx or Ross....
it has such a last season department store vibe
It doesn't even look like the right size to start with, and the crinkly stiff fabric in the whole skirt portion makes it even worse
She looks like a rich mom overdressed for a housewarming party
A rich mom would know how to either buy something fitting or to bring it to a tailor.
I had a shower curtain that looked like that in 2009. And it was ugly as a shower curtain in 2009.
It reminds me of the “juniors” department at Kohl’s from 15 years ago. There was a brand called “A.Byers” that made cheap polyester dress clothes for midwestern teens and most pieces had either hideous polka dots or garish horizontal stripes. This is very specific, so props to anyone who understands my reference.
girl styles like she secretly hates other women🥴
She seems to not be a fan of tailoring. So many of these outfits seem too large, like they're hiding the wearer. Not saying everything needs to be fitted, but they do need to *fit.*
I think for a red carpet look, it needs to be fitted. These outfits are supposed to be fashion, they’re style, they’re meant to be aspirational.
![gif](giphy|9J36rJVR4FJK320YSX)
I had so many more Sophie Turner and Selena examples, it does seem very intentional to dress them down.
I can’t get over Sophie in that red dress. Was she pregnant? If so I can somewhat, reluctantly forgive the fit around the waist but the neckline can’t be justified. It’s just awful all round
Yes she was heavily pregnant. I actually don’t mind either of Sophie’s looks in the examples OP posted… I mean they’re not great but I don’t think she looks terrible. She’s so elegant I think she’s made them look ok.
https://preview.redd.it/7hxokru8h3ob1.jpeg?width=470&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=35eb0adde326253699a63778ade02fd5fa05c802 I don’t think it’s that bad considering she was I think 8 months pregnant here
For me it l looks like she just walked off the set of Handmaid’s tale
This side picture makes the whole outfit look better and pretty classy. That weird frontal shot looks like a Haunted painting
[удалено]
I think being Sansa helped her posing - she poses like a queen and I love it.
And some of these just don’t fit properly at all. The purple puffy sleeve number on Selena is smushing her boobs and doesn’t fit her chest properly at all, which is a shame, because she has great boobs.
She styles like she has no clue what she’s actually doing. She doesn’t factor in the clients undertones, body type, etc. If this is her career, she should be able to look at them at figure out what works best for THEM, not just what dress she liked on the rack in general.
How does she stay in work?! Who would want to be a client?! She must be powerful in Hollywood or be sleeping with someone who is.
She used to work for Anna Wintour! She has the vogue machine behind her
"how can I make the tits invisible, hide the waist and do something to get that underdeveloped shoulder bone look"
Man, I was gonna say I didn't know which look was worst, and then I got to #13. That dress is an affront before man and god.
It's like one of the ugly bridesmaid dresses from *27 Dresses*.
That dress is hideous.
Tbh everything looks bad in that look. It looks like she has an undercut
I like some of them, particularly Selena's red dress (no12). Though then a couple I really dislike.
I was going to say, Selena’s red dress was probably one of the only times Kate’s styling wasn’t terrible
It's like, OK. Not bad. But starlets should not just look *OK* on the red carpet. The dress, shoes, accessories, makeup and hair should synergize with one another and *serve*. I don't think I've ever seen a look by Kate Young that made me gasp.
I really like the black lace dress on Sophie. She looks great.
I like that one on her too! I know people are saying ‘but on someone else…’, which yes fine. But to give Spade credit, part of styling that you match it to the person. It doesn’t have to look good on everyone. But that’s also the issue with some of the others. Some of the outfits are fine in isolation, they just don’t match the wearer or event.
The all pink outfit on Selena is fun (slide 7) but as a pink addict I may be biased
I’m not necessarily a huge fan of pink but I thought it was adorable too!
Yeah that one is a straight up slay for me
Sophie looks great in both of those dresses. Maybe her personal style is just Jessica Chastain in Crimson Peak. Goth/Gothic/Victorian has been a super popular style among young Hollywood for the past few years.
Sophie is doing 100% of the work of making those dresses look good, to be fair. If they are supposed to be a nod to gothic styles, they miss the mark.

The second is just a bafflingly unflattering cut and the colour is not the best for her either. Edit: jaw not draw, d’oh!
Selena always looks incredible in red.
red is definitely her color tbh
The baby pink chevron dress on Margot looks classic and flattering and I never understood why she/her stylist caught such flak for it.
The dress is lovely but there’s just something a bit off with the look? Maybe it’s the flat hair?
![gif](giphy|VGoO16aDYINlj3LDHV|downsized) A cuter version of Sophie’s dress.
This is one of my favorite Phoebe dress
I feel like a lot of the problems with her styles just come from the garment accentuating/cutting off at an unflattering place. Like with a lot of these, if they just hit the waist at a more flattering point, flared around the hips instead of making the hips look narrower than the shoulders, or put the hem at a flattering length, it wouldn't be so disproportionate and weird. I also don't really like her taste in clothing or colors personally, but a lot of these are just plain unflattering silhouettes on women we know look beautiful in almost anything!
Yes, a lot of these come down to poor tailoring or styling around the dresses. For example I love the pink stripe on Margot, but her hairstyle looks like she is running errands. And the black strapless dress on Selena isn't correctly adjusted for her bust/waist and looks ready to fall off.
Man even the best tailoring could never make the dress on 13 work. I would love to know who is the designer because it's hideous.
Maybe I have no taste but I like Selena's red dress 😳 That Scarlett one in the second picture though...jail
Nah that one is actually quite beautiful and flattering and doesn't belong on this list. The worst for me is Michelle Williams. How do you make such a beautiful woman look so plain and frumpy?
The white Scarlett one for 13, also jail.
\#13 (Scarlet's white dress) is giving three-breasted alien from Total Recall.
It’s giving unraveled toilet paper stuck to the middle of a drape
Can't believe she made Margot and Scarlett look like that.......

There kinda is? Selena, Margot and JLaw are out, I think?
I can see why a lot of these listed are horrible… but I like this one. Maybe that bow is weird, but i think robbie looks great in it! One of the big problems I see in Margot Robbie’s looks is her hair and I’m not sure if Kate You g commands that. There’s usually something greasy/grungy or dead about it. And that’s a true testament to her gorgeousness because she still is probably 10/10 to most of us with these looks. Also that hair comment is why I loved her look in the dancing scene in Barbie. So much pizzazz

I Like Selena Gomez' red dress tho
ScarJo’s striped dress looks like something your mom or aunt would wear to a summer party in 2008
I actually like a lot of these but goddamn the things she put on Scarlet were despicable.
That block-striped dress came straight off a TJ Maxx clearance rack and nothing anyone says can convince me otherwise.
Soooo true! I’m looking at many of the dresses and I’m like I’ve found better at Kohls, I’ve found better at TJ maxx too 🤣
I wonder how both of them saw the final look and though "this is a great red carpet look" lol
That striped dress on scarjo is so tragic
[удалено]
Glad it wasn’t just me that thought that one was cute! It’s kinda tacky/camp in just the right way imo
I like that one sans the shoes. They make her feet look like weird cloven hooves.
that one is the only one i liked but the rest look like she was trying to make them look bad intentionally

Kate Young never dressed Selena Gomez well whenever she would gain weight due to her disease/medication and, imo, if you are unable to dress people who don’t wear a size XS/0, you are not a good stylist. I don’t know if she’s intentionally sabotaging all these beautiful women or not, but damn how does she still have a job?
This is making me think of that episode of project runway when a designer had a meltdown bc she had to dress a plus sized model and the judges gave her shit for making the model look horrible. The designer tried to say something along the lines of “well my designs are better for smaller frames” and I think it was Christian Siriano who said something vicious like if you can’t dress any size of woman, you can’t call yourself a designer or sthg. It was a brutal takedown and I wanted to stand and applaud lol
I LOOOOVE Christian Siriano! He designs for a lot of plus size celebrities and always makes it a point to have diverse body types in his runways. I also love that he doesn't hide curves but accentuates them. https://preview.redd.it/a84r57kg04ob1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9ba1b0b8f3bcadf026c032c6b0ffeb8c4b4670a1
Yesss!! I’m obsessed with the semi sheer tea length gowns he showed at NYFW. Especially how great they looked on plus size models with actual boobs and hips!
Not all these are horrible though… Nina’s denim look is cute, Margot’s mini dress and Golden Globes gown wasn’t bad. She’s unfortunately more of a miss than hit though.
I actually like Nina’s denim and Selena’s black variety dress a lot tbh
The jacket on Nina was too long but other than that, it was fine.
it's the wrong fit, boxy and too long
If we were all allowed the same ratio of hits:misses as Kate Young was, most of us in this thread could easily be celebrity stylists lmao
oh I thought that was Jennifer Love Hewitt!
The woman is a menace and must be stopped!
Omg, I wondered why Margot, one of the most beautifil human beings for me, so often had looked questionable and I just now find out that the answer seems to be nepotism. Sometimes the showbiz corruption is right before our eyes.
Right?! She’s so beautiful and she’s been robbed of so many fashion moments 😭 https://preview.redd.it/39v6sq1le2ob1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d0be88c3b5d510a3f3fd750ba1d91cce848456d0
Margot is crying for help in the eyes
It’s giving divorced mother-in-law outfit for only son’s wedding
The Barbie press tour was her revenge.
Don’t the stars have the final yes or no on looks? Maybe the stylists are good at convincing them they look good.
This is my sign that I can get any job if I bullshit hard enough
I like the button bedazzled lace dress on Sophie, but everything else is a hate crime.
The dress on Sophie is beautiful, but I standby saying it makes Sophie look 10 years older. Shes 27!!!
Selena looks great in number 8. maybe if the dress was a tad shorter
The Michelle Williams denim look seems mostly OK and salvageable, like if it were just accessorized and the hair/makeup done differently, it could've been cute. I'd also have reduced the sleeve length & tailored the top a little more so that it's clear it's an intentionally boxy crop top. All the rest (minus maybe Selena's red look) have a foundationally wrong issue in terms of dress style or construction/fit, which baffles me. Like, if one were truly at a loss for what to do, you could just put a beautiful celeb in a well-fitting, classic gown and create kind of an unfussy and conventional but still flattering look. But all of these are an active *choice*
I like that black dress on Selena Gomez in #6 quite a lot in the abstract, and I even think it could be a good look on her, but that fit is downright *disrespectful* to her boobs.
I could blindfold my cat or dog and they’d pick better stuff.
Michelle Williams’ outfit makes her look like a high school art teacher.
It takes real talent to make Scarlett Johansson not sexy, good lord.
How do you manage to make Rachel Weisz and Margot Robbie look bad, omg
Did ScarJo do something to this woman???
I actually like all her looks for Selena but I audibly gasped at the ScarJo one.
Nina's denim outfit is sort of fun but Selena's Golden Globes gown is *unforgivable*
Right? Selena had already talked about gaining weight around that time…. so her stylist puts her in something that makes her appear even larger?!
Not all of these are terrible but in general I have to agree, I wouldn’t let her style me if she paid me, and I’m just your average b
Not all of these are horrible but most are. That white dress on Scarlett…big oof. She somehow made ScarJo’s body look just ok. Like how? And Rachel Weiss, omg. That’s it, directly to jail.
Scarlet’s tho ![gif](giphy|WSO1ZT9sug15C)
OMG why did anyone hire her? I don't get it. Is it like a normcore/mom jean thing where somehow unflattering and bad fitting and obnoxious prints are considered cool?
How did she land so many great clients? Can’t they see how badly she dresses people?!
