The 2015 Oscars red carpet is the worst we’ve ever seen

THE 90s called, and they want their fashion back. Here’s why the 2015 Oscars red carpet is the worst we’ve ever seen.

WE’RE just gonna say it: The 2015 Oscars red carpet is the worst we’ve ever seen.

Our hottest stars seem to have taken a step back in time, where spaghetti straps and peplums and poofy ball gowns reign supreme.

Where’s the drama we’ve come to expect from an awards ceremony as prestigious as this? Where’s all the colour gone? Where’s the edge? Where’s the LIFE?
