SAG Awards 2023: The worst-dressed stars revealed

As awards season inches ever closer to the big finale at the Academy Awards next month, it seems that some of Hollywood’s stars have run dry of sartorial inspiration for the red carpets – at least if the ensembles on display at tonight’s SAG Awards were anything to go by. 

The film and TV industry’s biggest celebrities turned out to celebrate the prestigious awards in Los Angeles this evening – with many of them putting on an incredibly glamorous display on the red carpet ahead of the ceremony. 

But, as always, there were multiple attendees who totally missed the mark when it came to their choice of award show outfit, with some eschewing the glamorous dress code altogether, while others simply went way too far with their choice of daring designer looks. 

One such person was Babylon star Li Jun Li who took the phrase ‘dare to bare’ to extreme lengths when she arrived in a totally see-through dress that flashed more than a little glimpse at her nude lingerie set underneath. 

New Amsterdam star Jessica Frances Dukes’ dress featured an incredibly uncomfortable-looking high-neck feather collar that looked as though it was about to swallow its wearer whole

But if the designer behind the frock went over-the-top with the fabric on the neckline, it’s only because they were able to scrimp on the rest of the gown, which had an enormous cut-out section at the front

Comedian Megan Stalter flashed back to 90s punk style in a leather corset that was wrapped over a baggy dress – leaving the whole thing looking very mis-matched and disorganized

The glittering ensemble was more mesh than dress – and the see-through material was made all the more risque by the bright camera flashes on the red carpet. 

Then there was New Amsterdam star Jessica Frances Dukes, whose dress featured an incredibly uncomfortable-looking high-neck feather collar that looked as though it was about to swallow its wearer whole. 

But if the designer behind the frock went over-the-top with the fabric on the neckline, it’s only because they were able to scrimp on the rest of the gown, which had an enormous cut-out section at the front, leaving the actress’s cleavage on full display, while a thigh-high slit flashed plenty of leg. 

Overall, the effect was just one of discomfort rather than elegance. 

Comedian Megan Stalter flashed back to 90s punk style in a leather corset that was wrapped over a baggy dress – leaving the whole thing looking very mis-matched and disorganized. 

The Parent Trap star Elaine Hendrix put on a dapper display in a tux – however the look was given a rather morbid edge courtesy of her Morticia Addams-esque makeup 

Patricia Arquette’s dress was a lovely pale green color but its ill-fitting design and horribly creased material took away from the overall finish 

Kai Smith opted to make a mockery of the dress code by turning up in what appeared to be a costume from the 1997 movie Good Burger

TV host Janine Rubenstein’s tasseled dress would have been better suited to a beach bar than a glittering awards show 

Joely Fisher’s voluminous dress did little to flatter her figure and the huge sleeves gave it a kind of dragon-like quality 

Damian Young’s crumpled look made it appear as though he’d leapt straight off the couch and onto the red carpet
