Frock horror! Margaret Qualley and Mayim Bialik lead the worst dressed stars in daring and wacky ensembles at the Critics Choice Awards in LA
- The 27th annual Critics Choice Awards took place in Los Angeles on Sunday afternoon
- A-List stars took to the red carpet, but not everyone got it right on the night
- Leading the fashion missteps were Margaret Qualley and Jeopardy! star Mayim Bialik
Not everyone gets it right on the red carpet, and this year’s Critics Choice Awards certainly had its fair share of fashion casualties.
Missing the style mark this year included the likes of actress Margaret Qualley and Jeopardy! star Mayim Bialik as well as Squid Game star HoYeon Jung and comedian Amber Ruffin.
Kicking things off was 27-year-old Qualley, who appeared to be wearing three different ensembles in one, as she walked the carpet in a multipatterned gown that featured a black sash.
Frock horror! Margaret Qualley and Mayim Bialik lead the worst dressed stars at the Critics Choice Awards in LA on Sunday
The top half of Qualley’s ensemble featured floral embroidery that was in stark contrast to a satin black middle section, that sat atop a frilly white skirt.
The daughter of Andie MacDowell finished off her ensemble with a pair of black and white heels.
Next up was Jeopardy! and The Big Bang Theory star Mayim Bialik in a gold and blue satin suit.
While a suit can normally be seen as a safe option, the slightly ill-fitting ensemble looked as though it could have done with a few more fittings to really help the star stand out.
Devil in the detail: The top floral design of Margaret’s frock looked as though it belonged to an entirely different outfit
Interesting ensemble: Kicking things off was 27-year-old Qualley, who appeared to be wearing three different ensembles in one, as she walked the carpet in a multipatterned gown that featured a black sash
Missing the mark: The differing styles of the ambitious ensemble didn’t quite gel together on the night
Mayim, 46, wore her hair slicked back and had minimal makeup for her red carpet arrival.
Meanwhile, there’s no doubt that Squid Game newcomer HoYeon Jung has made a name for herself in the fashion world.
However, the 27-year-old rivaled Bjork’s infamous Oscars Swan dress as she arrived at the Critics Choice Awards.

Gamble: While a suit can normally be seen as a safe option, the slightly ill-fitting ensemble looked as though it could have done with a few more fittings to really help the star stand out
The wacky outfit resembled more of a lampshade than a glam gown, which made of course been intentional.
Comedian Amber Ruffin was another stand-out on the carpet, and not in a good way.
The gorgeous stand-up was let down by her dress that went far too heavy on the feather detail, resembling something of a Vegas showgirl.
Canadian actress Sophie Nélisse went for a fairytale-style gown complete with a cape, that felt a little out of place
Hiya! Squid Game newcomer HoYeon Jung has made a name for herself in the fashion world, though her Critics Choice ensemble took too much of a risk
Wacky: The 27-year-old rivaled Bjork’s infamous Oscars Swan dress as she arrived at the Critics Choice Awards
Shape: The bottom half of the ensemble created a bulkiness that was difficult to ignore
The 27th annual awards show will be co-hosted by Taye Diggs and Nicole Byer and will take place at the Fairmont Century Plaza Hotel in Century City, California
Nominations for the event were announced back in December as Steven Spielberg’s West Side Story and Kenneth Branagh’s Belfast led the pack as they both scored 11 nominations each.
Meanwhile, Lady Gaga earned another nomination for her role in House of Gucci, landing in the Best Actress category, strengthening her chances at bagging another Oscar nod.
A lot of feathers: Comedian Amber Ruffin was another stand-out on the carpet, and not in a good way
Misstep: The gorgeous stand-up was let down by her dress that went far too heavy on the feather detail, resembling something of a Vegas showgirl
In addition to Best Picture, Belfast racked up several acting nominations including Best Supporting Actor nods for both Jamie Dornan and Ciarán Hinds.
Best Supporting Actress for Caitríona Balfe, Best Young Actor/Actress for Jude Hill, and Best Acting Ensemble, while Kenneth Branagh could take home both the Best Director and Best Original Screenplay trophies.
Belfast also earned nominations for Haris Zambarloukos for Best Cinematography, Jim Clay and Claire Nia Richards for Best Production Design, and Úna Ní Dhonghaíle for Best Editing.
Fantasy: Canadian actress Sophie Nélisse went for a fairytale-style gown complete with a cape, that felt a little out of place
Steven Spielberg received a Best Director nomination for his Best Picture contender West Side Story.
Two of the film’s standout performers, Ariana DeBose and Rita Moreno, will be vying for Best Supporting Actress, while Rachel Zegler is up for Best Young Actor/Actress.
West Side Story also garnered a nomination for Best Acting Ensemble, and nods for Tony Kushner for Best Adapted Screenplay, Janusz Kaminski for Best Cinematography, Adam Stockhausen and Rena DeAngelo for Best Production Design, Sarah Broshar and Michael Kahn for Best Editing, and Paul Tazewell for Best Costume Design.
Grungy: American actress Sarah Jones appeared to take some risks on the red carpet with her look
Dramatic: The striking looked appeared as though it could do with some tidying up
The list of list Picture hopefuls featured several more films with impressive nomination counts, including Dune and The Power of the Dog which picked up ten each.
Licorice Pizza and Nightmare Alley collected eight nominations apiece, followed by King Richard and Don’t Look Up, each with six. Rounding out the Best Picture nominees are CODA and ‘tick, tick…Boom!’
The Critics Choice Awards were originally scheduled to occur January 9 but were postponed due to the surge in COVID-19 cases due to the omicron variant.
Grungy: The nude slip-style dress was reminiscent of something Courtney Love would have devoured in the 90s
The Critics Choice Association said in a statement on January 13 they would be moving forward with an in-person event and working with the Los Angeles County Public Health Department ‘to ensure that the proper COVID-19 protocols to keep all attendees safe and comfortable will be in place’ by March 13.
‘Following the science and tracking the course of the Omicron variant, we believe that March 13th will be the right day to properly honor the finest achievements in film and television during the past year,’ CCA CEO Joey Berlin said in the statement.
‘We could have proceeded with our original January 9th date with limited attendance or switched to a virtual awards show like we did last year, but we decided to wait until we could safely gather in person and truly celebrate with the creative community, industry leaders and our CCA members all together in one beautiful setting for all the world to see.’
The new date conflicts with another major awards show, the BAFTAS, which is also set to take place March 13.
According to Variety sources, the CCAs and BAFTAs have been in communication over the issue and have a mutual understanding amongst one another.
