Fashion Fails Galore: Katie Holmes Leads Worst Dressed at the Tony Awards
Tony Awards Fashion Frenzy: The Ultimate Style Catastrophe
The 2025 Tony Awards, held at the iconic Radio City Music Hall in New York City, was a night to remember – for all the wrong reasons. While some A-listers slayed on the red carpet with their stunning looks, others committed style sin after style sin, leaving us wondering what they were thinking.
Hosted by the talented Cynthia Erivo, star of Wicked, the evening's festivities honored the best of Broadway, featuring dazzling performances and an emotional reunion of the original Hamilton cast to celebrate its 10th anniversary. However, the real showstopper was the fashion disaster that unfolded on the red carpet.
The Worst-Dressed List
Katie Holmes led the pack with her cringe-worthy ensemble, a boxy green T-shirt paired with an awkward pink skirt. The Wicked-inspired color scheme completely clashed, leaving us questioning her decision-making skills. It's like she raided a thrift store and put together the most unflattering outfit possible.
Close behind was Cynthia Erivo herself, who took a bold approach with her enormous tan corset top featuring an intricate floral pattern. Unfortunately, the giant shirt dwarfed her frame, making her look more like a human pinata than a style icon. Paired with a floor-length silk skirt, it's safe to say this combo won't be making any fashion history.
Natalie Venetia Belcon, star of Buena Vista Social Club, attempted to make a statement with her black gown and purple cape-like coat adorned with dramatic black feathers. While the look was certainly eye-catching, it felt like she raided a costume shop and threw everything she found onto her body.
Sarah Paulson's dress was a head-scratcher – literally. The strange shape and combination of black and white didn't quite work together, making her look like a human puzzle piece.
On the other end of the spectrum, singer Laufey stunned in a soft blue tiered dress with a necktie, lacy stockings, purple heels, and a matching coat. However, she accessorized with a bizarre cat-shaped purse that added an extra layer of confusion to her overall look.
Just in Time star Gracie Lawrence opted for a polka dot strapless dress with a huge bowtie around the skirt area – because who needs subtlety on the red carpet? Meanwhile, Death Becomes Her's Megan Hilty donned a gold frock with feathers galore, making us wonder if she raided a party store.
Canadian TV personality Keltie Knight ensured all eyes were on her – but not for the right reasons. Her floor-length sparkly gown featured an enormous unicorn emblazoned on it, leaving us questioning her life choices.
Singer Jordan Tyson's turquoise dress with an extremely low neckline and what looked like confetti hanging off of it was a poor choice for a more subdued event like the Tony Awards. It seemed more fitting for a New Year's Eve party – or perhaps a kindergarten fashion show.
Hamilton star Phillipa Soo's one-shouldered white frock contained a strange bow in the center of her chest area, which added an extra layer of confusion to an already unflattering dress. And let's not forget model Anna Alimani's sheer, lacy number that left little to the imagination – or should we say, left everything on full display?
Hamilton actor Sydney James Harcourt walked the carpet in a dazzling leopard print suit with a sheer patterned top underneath – because why choose just one bold statement? Glee alum Darren Criss also made the list for his plaid suit, while his wife Mia Swier flaunted her bra on the red carpet in a sheer black top and sparkly skirt.
As the evening's events proved, sometimes less is more. Or should we say, style is not always about making a statement – sometimes it's just about showing up looking put together?
Will these fashion disasters be remembered as a defining moment of the Tony Awards or an embarrassment that will be swept under the rug? Only time (and history books) will tell.
