1. Adele in a Colorful Valentino Dress
Adele’s Valentino floral dress at the Grammys two years ago received a lot of flak from critics. However, the surprisingly tall award-winning singer, who usually has a penchant for wearing all-black outfits, boldly broke the trend by donning this striking red frock.

While the dress’s design may not suit everyone’s taste, Adele’s appearance on the red carpet in this vintage-style ensemble was undoubtedly a showstopper.
