If you think the red carpet is all sparkly gowns and polished tuxedos, 2025 is ready to prove you very, very wrong.
This year, the fashion world decided to get a little weird.
We aren't talking "bold colours" or "weird patterns". We are talking literal castles, musical instruments, and outfits that made us do a double-take just to see if they were actually wearing clothes.
Here’s a look at some of the most bizarre fashion moments of the year.
The event: 2025 Grammys
Kanye West and wife, Bianca, are basically the king and queen of making people uncomfortable.
At the 2025 Grammys, they arrived looking almost normal for a split second.
Then, Censori shed her fur coat to reveal a completely sheer illusion slip dress that was essentially a birthday suit with a light dusting of fabric.
They allegedly left the event shortly after walking the carpet.

The event: 2025 Grammys
Jaden Smith has carried his own hair and a gold Grammy award as a prop before, but this year, he brought the whole neighbourhood.
He paired a sharp Louis Vuitton suit with a "Vampire Castle" helmet by the brand ABODI.
It wasn't just a hat; it was a literal gothic fortress with turrets and gates.
One has to wonder how he sat through a four-hour ceremony with that object on his head.

The event: 2025 Academy Museum Gala
Kim Kardashian has officially entered her "I don't need to breathe to be famous" era.
For Glenn Martens’s couture debut at Maison Margiela, Kim wore a full-head mask that completely erased her face.
The look featured an extreme, nipped-in waist and a silver-and-emerald choker keeping the mask in place.
What’s even crazier is that she actually spent hours in the makeup chair just to hide the entire look under a nude stocking.

The event: 2025 Met Gala
Andre 3000 took the "promotional tour" vibe very literally by showing up as a baby grand piano.
To celebrate his EP 7 Piano Sketches, he strapped a custom Steinway replica (made of foam and 3D-printed parts) to his back.
He paired this musical backpack with a Burberry jumpsuit and a literal trash bag in hand.

The event: 2025 Gotham Awards
Even the Queen of Style has an "off" day. Riri showed up in a bubblegum pink Balenciaga gown that looked like a cross between a luxury duvet and a giant marshmallow.
The dress had a weird, bulbous shape that swallowed her famous curves, topped off with a feathered cap and black leather gloves.
We love a risk-taker, but this one was a rare "miss" for the icon.

The event: 2025 British Fashion Awards
You might not know Lyas Medini yet, but you definitely know what his anatomy looks like now.
The fashion commentator showed up in a Jean Paul Gaultier bodysuit that was, well, graphic.
The head-to-toe look featured a hyper-realistic print of a naked man, complete with body hair and everything else.
It was "naked dressing" taken to a terrifyingly literal conclusion. It’s safe to say no one was looking at his shoes.
