The 51st TV Week Logie Awards at Melbourne’s Crown Towers Hotel and Casino was a crazy whirl of 80s-style Barbie costumes, Kidmans, Minogues, huge skirts, transparent skirts, and plain old starkers!
Faustina “Fuzzy” Agolley is one of the few nods to the 21st century.
Rebecca Gibney brings the obligatory “lady in red” element necessary to any 80’s-inflected do.
Antonia Kidman maintains the family rep for understated elegance.
Annie Lennox’s velvet is a little 30s bombshell, a little 80’s priestess, a lot Diva.
Pippa Black brings just enough – or should I say, just little enough – 80’s glam.
The Bad:
As Nadine Garner proves, catcher’s chest guard plus Swan Lake costume, while bold, is a few sammies short of a picnic.
Oh noes! A moth has gotten to Lee Furlong’s mini!
Kate Ritchie’s 1986 priestess, while terrifying, is…terrifying.
Tasma Walton gives the lie to the old saw that throwing a transparent skirt over a mini is a quick fix. One could, in fact, call this notion “mad as a cut snake.”
