It’s time! The stars attending the 78th British Academy Film Awards (BAFTA) have — or currently are — making their way down the red carpet in outfits that either dazzle the audience… or miss the mark completely.

Hosted by David Tennant and starting live on February 16, 2025 at 2pm ET/11am PT, BAFTA is dedicated to celebrating “excellence” while giving the opportunity to “discover, inspire, and nurture new screen talent,” in accordance to their website. 

Projects such as Conclave, Emilia Pérez, Wicked, and Dune: Part Two are among the names who have received multiple nominations.

But before the main entertainment of the day arrives, here are a few fits that captured our attention.

It wouldn’t have been much of a surprise if the celebrities showed up wearing little to nothing, after the whole fiasco at the 2025 GRAMMYs. But from those practically naked outfits to noticeably more tame ones at the Critics Choice Awards and now BAFTA… are we maybe catching a glimpse of an upward trend? 

That’s up to you to decide — vote on whether or not these fashion choices are a hit or fall a little short!

    For those wondering why she doesn't have makeup, her makeup artist which she worked years with died, and Pamela said that she wouldn't wear makeup ever again.

    Not many people can pull of green but she can. The cut of the dress is lovely and while I would pick the color personally I think is looks great on her.

    Shoulder pads could be taken off, they make her look odd

    By now we're all resigned to the supposedly alluring bared thorax, but the bared knee here is TRAGIC. You want to kill the magic, Marisa? Show us your knee! JFC!

    No, because those shoulders are the ick. This could be a fantastic dress, with different topline and the design in gem-like colors. Less cleavage and less leg. Less leg because she has knees like mine, and mine are NOT pretty (knee replacement and general wear and tear)

    I agree with you on the shoulder pads and the cleavage. Her knees should be hidden because they are not pretty? I’m sorry you feel that way about your own knees after surgery but show them knees! This is coming from a a woman who has never refused a low cut top just because of the scar on her chest. I’ve lived more of my life with the scar than without.

    Her navel looks like a man with sunglasses and a big mustache. Even she looks disgusted with herself.
