New York City's Best And Worst Dressed

New York City's Best And Worst Dressed

Britney Spears and Paris Hilton tied for the number one spot on Mr. Blackwell's 47th annual "Worst Dressed" list, released on Tuesday. The New York Daily News created their own list hightlighting the good, the bad, and the plain out fugly. Of course they missed a few names but I'm sure you guys will pick up the slack in the comment section.

NYC'S WORST DRESSED

MARIAH CAREY Someone stole the belly off of every single outfit in her wardrobe! Every year Miss Mariah makes us suffer through an endless parade of microskirts, sequins, pleather and even wedding dresses. The "We Belong Together" singer proved this year that she is the queen of the comeback, so here's hoping she'll come back to reality and pick clothes that flatter (and cover!) her generous curves.





LIL' KIM The Queen Bee is no stranger to pushing the fashion envelope, but since busting out of jail she's developed a serious case of "skinny-girl syndrome" that has her bursting out of her clothes. The petite plus-size rapper has slimmed down since her prison stint, but all the stretch fabric in the world can't save her from a fashion police citation.

NYC'S BEST DRESSED

ISIAH THOMAS Not since Walt (Clyde) Frazier strutted around the city in his mack-daddy duds has anyone graced the Garden hardwood with such splendor as Thomas, the Knicks' head coach. Too bad the team doesn't play nearly as sharp as Thomas looks in his tailored suits.

MOS DEF Every year, anti-establishment actor/performance artist Mos Def impresses with his impeccable style. He looks good on a red carpet in a designer suit, or downtown in an old leather jacket and one of his signature caps. Or, the other way around - it's just a matter of attitude. With his album "Tru3 Magic" dropping this month, we can only hope to see more of him in 2007.

HIT OR MISS: THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE INCONSISTENT

KIMORA LEE SIMMONS Kimora can strut the runway or a red carpet with the grace of a swan. That's on her good days. She can also squeeze herself into too many too-tight gowns, bulging over the top and bottom like a stuffed sausage. And when the style mogul lets the bling get outta control, you had better cover your eyes.

JENNIFER LOPEZ The diva Latina with the killer caboose can usually be counted on for the plunging necklines and hip-huggers that raise (or lower) the bar on celebrity style. While J.Lo may have glowed in a curve-hugger at her Sweetface fashion show, Jenny hit a few bumps on the block in 2006 - such as her glorified do-rag and lame dress (was that an Oompa-Loompa?) at the MTV Video Music Awards. Ban the bandannas, and bring back the Versace!

SEAN (DIDDY) COMBS Since this music and media mogul dons so many hats (artist, producer, designer), you'd think he'd know how to accessorize. Alas, the man of too many monikers (Diddy? P. Diddy? Puffy?) often mars his otherwise sharp sense of bad-boy style with oversize bling and an obnoxious entourage - like the "spokesperson" he had answering all interview questions for him while walking the red carpet at MTV's Video Music Awards. We love ya Puff, but Jack Nicholson you are not. (source)
