Angelina Jolie: C
More from WWD
This multitiered camisole looks more like a supermarket orchid than a “Maleficent”-worthy wardrobe choice. The windswept hair is distracting — we prefer sleek on her, especially when she’s dressed as a walking plant.
Julia Roberts: A-
This throwback to the polka-dot number from “Pretty Woman” has us suddenly craving a Nineties movie marathon. Normally we don’t love a white-on-white accessory, but it works here.
Christina Aguilera: C-
Morticia Addams wants her dress back. The lace-up details gives her a good Goth edge, that’s for sure. But the strands of fake hair downgrade the outfit. A sharp bob would compliment the bangs and give it a more continental look.
Charlize Theron: C+
We’ve been big fans of her new bowl haircut, but it’s not working with this monastical look. The light gray color washes her out — and let’s hope that one-hand leather glove has functional purposes, because as a styling trick it’s a bit of an overkill.
Shia LeBeouf: B+
The whole outfit is very high-fashion martial arts instructor — which we mean as a compliment. The white undershirt and socks are so cheesy that they’re perfect.
Will Smith: B-
This makes us really miss the “Fresh Prince” days. He looks good for 51, but this juvenile suit does nothing to elevate his style. A more timeless look would make him look A-list.
Jaden Smith: B+
He’s always been very confident in his style, and it shows. The high-fashion black suit not only fits him perfectly, it also creates the perfect backdrop for his red hair and tie-dye silk neck scarf. It looks great on him, but don’t try this at home.
Eddie Redmayne: C-
Dressing like a chicken Milanese is never a good idea when you have ginger tendencies. The Seventies may be trending, but this allover velvet suit with matching tie is an unfortunate choice for him.
