Mr. Blackwell's "Worst Dressed" List

As a renowned slave to fashion, I always look forward to Mr. Blackwell skewering the worst dressed, and there's always plenty to choose from.

This year we have some of the usual suspects.
Dubbed "style-free and fashion deprived," Britney Spears and
Paris Hilton tied for the No. 1 spot on Mr. Blackwell's 47th annual "Worst Dressed" list released Tuesday.

"Two peas in an overexposed pod," Blackwell said of the skimpy attire worn by the two celebutantes he called the "Screamgirls."

Some of Blackwell's nastiest words were reserved for Camilla Parker-Bowles, a member of the British royal family, who finished No. 2 on the list.

"The Duchess of Dowdy strikes again," wrote Blackwell. "In feathered hats that were once the rage, she resembles a petrified parakeet from the Jurassic age. A royal wreck."

Annual worsts also tend to go to Christina Aguilera and Mariah Carey. Others noted this year were some Hollyfood fashion catastophes.
He said actress Sharon Stone resembles "an over-the-hill Cruella DeVille," and Tori Spelling embodies "down and out in Beverly Hills."

"Grey's Anatomy" star Sandra Oh was faulted for too many beads and bangles. "She's layered lunacy from head to toe," Blackwell said.
