Mr. Blackwell's Worst Dressed Women of 2003

It's finally here, that, for which we have waited all year long. It's out for the public to read; our lives are now complete. Mr. Blackwell's Top 10 Worst Dressed Women is here for all of us to remember and reflect on fashion of 2003.

Mr. Blackwell can be a little harsh at times while making fun of celebrities who walk out of their house trusting their stylist a little too much. However, this year, he is right on the mark. Blackwell admits that this year it may have been a little harder to pick out the worst dressed, but that still didn't stop him.

"Many long-term thread-bare bombs have reinvented themselves during the past year," Blackwell said.

Unfortunately, these 10 women have been singled out for their fashion disasters. Blackwell did point out that this has nothing to do with their talents. It is purely based on what they decided to pull out of their closet that day and actually wear in the outside, paparazzi world. Sometimes it is the actress' own fault. Did someone really convince Bjork to wear a swan around her body to the Oscar's one year? Did she just go on the basis that no press is bad press?

Some women may say they don't care what others think about their clothes, they would rather be acknowledged for their talents and we say good for them. Then, sometimes you just have to look in the mirror and say, "Come on!" What were some of them really thinking?

"When it comes to fashion, one must take a petrifying peek at these walking wardrobe wrecks at your own risk, unless, you like costume catastrophes of the legendary kind," said Blackwell.

Here is Blackwell's Top 10 Worst Dressed Women of 2003, with an explanation of why they landed at the top, or in this case, the bottom.

10. Lara Flynn Boyle: Sometimes a single fiasco is all it takes - that tutu terror was one of the all-time worst fashion mistakes! A beautiful face . . .but no taste . . . what a waste!

9. Courtney Love: The torrid temptress of fashion - "Rock Pack" is the undisputed queen of tack.

8. Melanie Griffith: Melanie defines "fatal fashion folly" A botox'd cockatoo in a painting by Dali!

7. Missy Elliot: Missy's experiencing a bling-bling take-over - time to lower the wattage and get a makeover!

6. Celine Dion: Half-sequined scarecrow, half-gaudy acrobat. Is it Abe Lincoln in drag? I'll leave it at that!!!

5. Jessica Simpson: Forget putting her stylist on suspension - just clean out that closet, and hire a magician!

4. Diane Keaton: In prudish fashion pitfalls that bury her beauty, it could be Queen Victoria on jury duty! Dowdy, dumpy, and frumpy!

3. Shania Twain: What can I say? In buckled bombs and country-fried kitsch. Has Calamity Twain, popped a stitch?

2. A TIE --- Madonna/Britney Spears: So many tacky trends, so little time - please, will someone arrest The Kissing Cousins of Couture Crime?

1. Paris Hilton: How are you gonna keep 'em down on the farm after they've seen Paree. Grab the blinders, here comes Paris. From cyber disgrace to red carpet chills - she's the vapid Venus of Beverly Hills!

These women really have to get their acts, or wardrobes, together to get out of the red in time for next year's list.

Thank you, Mr. Blackwell for helping us common folk not follow these trend makers. It is a big help to us and, hopefully, one day, Paris Hilton will take your advice too!
