To be sure, 2005 turned out to be a terrible year for fashion filth. The veteran style watcher Mr. Blackwell released his 46th Annual Worst Dressed Women list Tuesday, and Britney Spears lead the way for wearing clothes that he said made her look like an "over-the-hill Lolita.
"
TMZ figured it was unfair to let Mr. Blackwell report on these stylistic wrongdoings all by himself, so we took the opportunity to dish on the divas who made waves with their own brand of stylistic sludge.
In the eyes of Mr.
Blackwell, Britney is the best of the worst when it comes to fashion. "When it comes to Couture Chaos, this Tacky Terror should take a bow," Blackwell sneered.
TMZ concurs, cause when we think of Britney, we think of the "girl next door.
" Yeah, in a trailer park!! Let's hope that if she kicks Kevin out again, he takes her bad taste with him!
!
Coming in a close second on the fashion-basher's don't list was Mary-Kate Olsen, who was torched for "Bag Lady rags that look depressingly decayed--forget the 'accessories' and buy some Raid!"
Uhh, Mr.
Blackwell, not so fast. Did you forget about Paris? Is there anyone who makes more headlines while wearing rags?
Paris is proof that no matter how much money you have, you can still look like you purchased your entire wardrobe from the Dollar Store.
Thanks to her "garish taste," Eva Longoria made Blackwell's list and was the only resident of Wisteria Lane to do so. We're wondering why he chose to spend his time with lovely Ms.
Longoria, all the while ingoring the wardrobe -- not to mention train -- wreck that is Tara Reid.
By the way, who is the person that has been dressing poor Tara Reid for the last year? Or has she been doing this to herself?
Sweetie, put down the drink and pick up the phone. It's time to seek outside help.
On the heels of her admittance of drug use and an eating disorder, Lindsay Lohan was deemed a "Fashion Fright.
" Blackwell zinged that Lohan is "drowning in grown-up groaners." Why go there, Mr. Blackwell.
Talk about hitting her while she's down.
TMZ couldn't imagine a list of wardrobe wrecks without Kirsten Dunst. This tree hugger should really try and spend more time trying to beautify this world.
And she should start in her closet!
Newly-single Renee Zellweger also took a verbal Blackwell beating. "Renee runs the gamut from Kewpi Doll Dreck to Red Carpet Wreck--Just take your pick," Blackwell belted.
"She looks like a painted pumpkin--on a pogo stick!"
Duly noted, Mr. Fashion.
However, isn't your list incomplete without a Gwen Stefani mention? This year Gwen tried desperately to keep her street credibility. But honey, you're from the O.
C.! Instead of Ghetto Fabulous she gave us Ghetto FabuLOST!
!
Mariah Carey's comeback year placed her squarely in the crosshairs of Blackwell's fashion police. "Fashion's Hari-Carey Strikes Again!
" Blackwell jeered. "The world applauds your musical emancipation, but please--leave that body to our imagination!"
Apparently you didn't get the memo, Mr.
Blackwell. This was Mariah Carey's year. The winner of our R B fashion faux pas is Macy Gray.
OK Macy, we get the whole outlandish style thing. But the next time you stumble out of your closet, please just walk away. The other way.
Thanks to her "Coiffure by Medussa," and "clothes by the Marquis De Sade," Shakira received a big thumbs down for being "hopeless."
Huh?
TMZ begs to differ.
Shakira has a style all her own, and she's undeniably hot to trot. But since we're on the subject of pop divas, can this list be complete without Fergie? Fergie, you look like a human bag of skittles!
I can just about taste the rainbow. And sugar, it's anything but sweet.
Mr.
Blackwell takes pot shots at several easy targets, notably Anna Nicole Smith. We can't imagine a Worst Dressed list without Hilary Duff. Poor girl spent the year walking around looking like a home economics project gone very wrong.
We could on and on. It's time to let you be the judge. Be sure to check out TMZ's videos to get all the goods -- or rather, the bads -- on the stars of this year's Worst Dressed Lists, and decide for yourself who got things right.

While millions of people watch New Year's Eve celebrations on TV, an intriguing competition will be going on behind the scenes, as many celebrities battle it out to have the hottest New Year's Eve party of the year.
In the ring: Sister against sister, and ex-lovers against ex-lovers. Even D-List reality stars have jumped into the fray, as many of them host their own New Year's Eve parties.
Who will win? TMZ sizes up the competition and predicts who will emerge the winner.
New York City has the world famous Times Square ball drop, and now the Big Apple hosts a showdown between two music stars with competing par-tays.
Carey will throw a bash at Cipriani in midtown Manhattan, with ticket prices starting at $200. The party will be hosted by the ubiquitous Ryan Seacrest; he and Carey will presumably head to the event after they appear on ABC's New Year's Eve telecast. (Cipriani says that Carey and Seacrest will show up at the blowout around 3 AM) Meanwhile, Maroon 5 lead singer Adam Levine, who will be on MTV's New Year's Eve show, will host his own party at the luxurious Skylight Studios in the Village, complete with outdoor swimming pool, with a minimum $150 admission price.
TMZ's winner pick: No contest. Carey's party will be the biggest celebrity magnet in the Big Apple.
The notorious Hilton sisters usually throw parties together.
But this year, Paris and Nicky will both host competing New Year's Eve bashes in Las Vegas: Paris at Tao in the Venetian Hotel, while younger sis Nicky, along with her boyfriend, 'Entourage' star Kevin Connolly, will hold court at Pure at Caesars Palace in a winter wonderland-themed event. Both parties will feature views of fireworks displays and the hosts doing the midnight countdown.
But there are some major differences.
Nicky's party is a black-tie event with a ticket price of $499. Paris' party is more accessible (at a ticket price of $200) and doesn't require formal wear. At the stroke-of-midnight, Nicky and her beau will open a bottle of Cristal champagne worth a reported $100,000.
At midnight during Paris' party, 2006 pink balloons will drop and a snow machine will turn the place into a winter wonderland.
TMZ's winner pick: Paris is the bigger celebrity, so it's a no-brainer that her party will likely have more star power. Paris is also more likely to take off some of her clothes and do something wild at the party, which would also motivate people to be there.
The bottom line: Paris' party sounds like a lot more fun.
Lindsay Lohan and Wilmer Valderrama's breakup is rumored to have caused hard feelings between the two, especially since Valderrama went on to date Lohan's friend, Ashlee Simpson. Now the two former lovebirds will be competing in a Miami showdown of New Year's Eve parties.
Lohan's bash at the indoor/outdoor club Prive/Opium will feature several DJs (including Samantha Ronson and DJ Irie), and will have a minimum admission price of $150 to $200 per person. Valderrama's party at Mansion will have DJ AM (aka, Nicole Richie's ex) and a live performance from trendy rock band the Bravery. The cost of admission to Valderrama's bash starts at $225.
TMZ's winner pick: Although Valderrama's party will have better music, Lohan's event will draw the cooler crowd. We're betting that a lot more of the beautiful people would rather see Lohan up close than Valderrama, and Prive is a much nicer space.
Pamela Anderson and Kid Rock were once engaged, and they've definitely gone their separate ways when it comes to what they're doing this New Year's Eve.
Anderson will be in Los Angeles to host a party dubbed "Gridlock" on the Paramount Studios back lot. The Pussycat Dolls will perform, and the minimum admission price is $125. Kid Rock will DJ at the new Vegas nightclub Jet in the Mirage Hotel, with admission prices starting at $200.
TMZ's winner pick: Anderson's party will draw a hotter crowd since Kid Rock's party will have so much more competition in Vegas. Having a party on a movie-studio back lot is much more unique than just another hotel. And a lot of partygoers may not admit it, but a big appeal of Anderson's party is to see what she's wearing.
..or not wearing.
For anyone who wants to party with reality stars of dubious fame, there's no shortage of New Year's Eve choices. In New York City, Brittny Gastineau of 'Gastineau Girls' will host a bash at Nest, with tickets going for a minimum $50. Also in the Big Apple, Wes Bergmann and Johanna Botta of 'The Real World: Austin' will host a party at the sci-fi-themed restaurant Mars 2112; ticket prices start at $145.
And from the first season of 'The Real World: New York,' Eric Nies will preside over a bash at Sequoia, with the cost of admission starting at $125.
Meanwhile, in Miami, a minimum $60 ticket price will get someone into a party at Crobar hosted by 'America's Next Top Model' first-season winner Adrianne Curry and her fianc e , Christopher Knight, who both starred in their own reality show, 'My Fair Brady.'
TMZ's winner pick: None.
Why party with reality stars when these cities will be packed with bigger celebrities at relatively accessible bashes?
