5. Zendaya at the 2024 Dune: Part Two Premiere

Once an innocent Disney starlet, stylist Law Roach transformed Zendaya into the boundary-pushing fashion baddie she is today. In a People magazine interview, Roach stated that there’s “nothing she won’t try,” and the duo proved this in 2024 when Zendaya arrived wearing a Thierry Mugler cyborg suit from his fall/winter 1995-1996 couture collection to promote “Dune: Part Two.” She told Vogue, “As the days were coming up, I was like, ‘This is a bad idea.’ Like, why did I do this?’ But I put it on, I went out there, and I did it.”

6. Julia Louis-Dreyfus at the 2020 “Downhill” premiere

Julia Louis-Dreyfus, known for her more understated looks in “Seinfeld,” made a bold statement at the premiere of her film “Downhill,” donning a tight black Dolce & Gabbana dress that was particularly constraining in the waist and hips. When she spoke to Page Six, she said: “I can’t breathe.”

7. Kylie Jenner at the 2020 Vanity Fair Oscar Party

At this event, Kylie posed in two outfits, but it was the strapless Ralph & Russo gown that became one of her most legendary red-carpet moments, dazzling in sequins with an hourglass shape so dramatic that barely any accessories were needed. There were zero gaps or wrinkles in the dress, and in a now-deleted IG post of her failing to sit properly in a car, she wrote, “Couldn’t really sit in this, but it was worth it.”

8. Kylie Jenner at the 2017 Met Gala

It’s no wonder that the Kardashians and Jenners have popped up multiple times on this list. At the 2017 Met Gala, she wore a romantic, ultra-tight ensemble that was bedazzled and adorned with jewels, flowers, and arm tassels, giving a waterfall effect. In her reality show “Life of Kylie,” she pondered, “Do you think we should suffocate? Should it be like this?” The look was complemented by a short platinum blonde bob that matched the outfit perfectly.
