From bad to worse! And as celebrities prepare their show-stopping frocks and dapper suits ahead of the 2018 TV Week Logie Awards, Daily Mail Australia look back at the WORST dressed over the years
Tracy Grimshaw: 2009
A Current Affair’s Tracy Grimshaw suffered a questionable sartorial moment in 2009 when she stepped on the Logies red carpet in a royal purple number with rhinestone detailing.
The frock’s voluminous cut and garish hue earned her a spot on many fans’ worst dressed lists.
In recent years Tracy has eschewed the Logies red carpet, choosing instead to sneak into the ceremony without being photographed.

Bonnie Sveen: 2017
Best known for her role of Ricky Sharpe on Home And Away, Bonnie looked worlds away from her bikini babe character when she attended the Logies in 2017.
Clad in an unusual two-piece ensemble in grey brocade, the soap star looked decidedly uncomfortable as she posed on the red carpet.
Bonnie matched her look with a pair of black strappy ankles that did little to flatter her petite frame.

Margot Robbie: 2009
In 2009, well before her Hollywood career took off, Neighbours star Margot Robbie stepped out in a dramatic flamenco-inspired black and red mullet dress.
The strapless frock gave a very leggy display with its thigh-high hemline with voluminous frills.
Despite being pinned by critics as a fashion fail, Margot had attended as a nominee for the Most Popular New Female Talent for her role in the popular soap.
While time appears to have healed these fashion wounds for Margot, there were still some memorable misses last year.

The Biggest Loser’s Lily Babet graced the Logies red carpet in an outfit that would polarise audiences in 2017.
Sauntering her way down the media wall, Lily turned heads in a glittering silver pencil dress covered in flamenco-inspired fringe detailing.
The Network TEN personality completed her eyebrow-raising ensemble with a pair of chunky white shoes and a dramatic ponytail.

Olympia Valance: 2017
Olympia Valance wore a rose-stamped creation by Con Ilio when she attended the Logies in 2017.
The billowing velvet skirt and over-sized print did little to flatter Olympia’s frame, while a bizarre head wrap failed to enhance her already overwhelming look.
Olympia is no stranger to making unusual style choices, but some fans were left less-than-impressed with her 2017 offering at the Logies.

Georgia Parker: 2016
Home and Away star Georgie Parker missed the fashion mark last year in a bronze silk gown that swamped her slender frame.
The 51-year-old actress opted for a floor-length plunging Constantina and Louise dress with ruched detailing around her stomach.
Making the look appear over-the-top, she also paired it with House of Emmanuele body jewellery and two cuffs that her dress’ fabric draped from.
