Love It or Hate It: Kelis's Liberty Spikes and Golden Makeup

January 29, 2010

Kelis went a little Gaga (as in Lady) last night at the Data Awards, with gold conical spikes, gilt false lower eyelashes, sparkling silver shadow on the lids, and some major facial chains. This outfit might be more in the realm of performance art than red carpet getup, but do you think she went all futuristic the right way, or was this a big mistake?

Maybe one of the three things would work on Kelis, but not all together.

I "hate this so much right now!"... as Kelis herself, might say.

I saw the complete picture on another blog. The outfit is very unsettling. As for avant-garde I would only loosely use that term for Lady GaGa or Kelis. Both in my opinion are attention seekers at best. For true avant-garde, true artistry---Laurie Anderson and Grace Jones come to mind. Besides the point anyway, the shoes she is wearing with this outfit look to be from the Spring 2010 A. McQueen collection. I can't even hazard a guess where the latex suit came from (ack).

@mommahello-kelis has been in the public eye WAY longer then lady gaga and has always dressed crazy. lady gaga would be the one copying. second, kelis has always had an avant-garde kind of style, but here she looks like an attention-seeking fashion victim. she could do better.

Well it's creative. She still looks beautiful even with all that going on around her face.

She looks ridiculous. Not to mention the rampant cameltoe from her vinyl jumpsuit.

She's a pretty woman and doesn't need all the "getup".

This is typical Kelis style if you ask me. So this isn't a stretch for her. I don't care it but then again I am pretty straight-laced and don't crave the spotlight.

Trying way too hard. Looks like an idiot.

Even SHE doesn't look like she adores what a mess this is! Should get a brain cell & try to do something original instead of riding on Gaga's coattails!!! AND it didn't work.

I read that Lady GaGa (who's look is always avant-garde) has an inspiration for each of her costumes. I do think of her clothes as costumes. Kelis looks like a hot mess in this get up. No point of inspiration, it's more of a halloween costume gone awry. Just my opinion :-)

Maybe in the context of the event she was attending it may be understandable (even though everybody else looked pretty normal),but yeah, I guess Lady Gaga's opened the floodgates for all the crazies out there to let their S&M freaks out...
