Suicide Squad may not be killing it with the movie critics, but at least its sexy stars are slaying the red carpet competition

MARGOT ROBBIE

Premiere of Suicide Squad in New York City

Gown: Alexander McQueen

Yes, that's a giant full-length sequined unicorn. And no, I don't hate it. The fantastical, darkly glamorous gown - styled with a vampy lip - is perfect for the premiere of a movie in which she plays a nutty villainess. Congratulations, Harley Quinn, you have the last laugh.

CARA DELEVINGNE

Premiere of Suicide Squad in London

Dress and jacket: Alexander McQueen

Boots: Christian Louboutin

​

She's the film's Enchantress, but is even more bewitching in her red carpet element - which essentially means lots of crazy, fierce edginess and goth-ballerina-esque black tulle and leather.

Ratings: B+


GISELE BUNDCHEN

Opening ceremony of the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro

Gown: Alexandre Herchcovitch

​

Just like all the athletes in her midst, the Brazilian supermodel is also going for gold. Her gleaming, slinky metallic gown may be a tad predictable, but it gets the job done.

MELANIE BROWN

Maxim Hot 100 Party in Los Angeles

Dress: Not known

Business on top, party at the bottom, Scary (Spice) all round. That crotch-endangering slit is not playing around, but the thigh's the limit.

Ratings: C


CHANEL IMAN

Maxim Hot 100 Party in Los Angeles

Top and pants: Juan Carlos Obando

​

Is it a leotard? A caped nightie? A freak of fashion nature? And worn over sloppy unhemmed trousers - my pet peeve - no less? The possibilities are endless - and endlessly disturbing.

Ratings: D


WHO WORE IT BETTER?

ASHLEY BENSON VS KARLA SOUZA

It's the clash of the TV C-listers in Michael Kors' metallic brocade chain link dress. I wasn't buying the silver sleeveless version, as it sits too snugly on Benson. On the other hand, sleeves on Souza and her choice of black make it less tacky overall. A good fit also works wonders. Those torso key rings are still ridiculous though.

‘Does this outfit fit? Can you see my Spanx through this? Breathe. Which side is my wonk-eye on?’ Every morning I wake up usually thankful I haven’t turned into a meme while I was sleeping.
