The Most OMG Looks of 2012

These Are the Red Carpet Looks That Made Us Go OMG

We browsed through a lot of red carpet photos this year, but some were definitely more, uh, memorable than others. From Justin Bieber's parachute-crotch pants to Nicki Minaj's pope impersonation, let's take a look back at the most OMG outfits of 2012, shall we?

2012 was the year that Justin Bieber burned all of his normal, non-drop-crotch bottoms, and went on a saggy pants spending spree. The red leather pair he wore to the American Music Awards was particularly offensive.

Marc Jacobs knows the power of a good man dress. He paired his with clean underwear and pilgrim shoes.

Forget jeweled clutches and platform heels. As Nicki Minaj knows, the accessory that will really get you photographed is a pope!

At this point, for Lady Gaga to really shock us, she'd have to leave the house with a spray tan, a blowout, an Herve Leger dress, and some Louboutins. But this alien cocoon getup still made us do a double-take.

Here it is, once again. The leg that launched athousandinternet memes.

Florence Welch looked like a very fancy jellyfish at the 2012 Met Gala, don't you think?

Eden Wood's Aggressive Ruffles! Admit it. You would have killed to wear this when you were 7.

Who knew that Miley Cyrus's Billboard Awards appearance would be such a turning point for her, style-wise? After walking the red carpet sans-pants, it was only a short period of time before she chopped off her hair and started getting into bondage-y crop tops.

Remember when Sacha Baron Cohen walked the Oscars red carpet as his character, The Dictator? It was almost tame for the stunty comedian, but then he dropped "Kim Jong Il's ashes" all over Ryan Seacrest, and we were like, OMG.

Lena Dunham made us do a double-take when she posed for photos in a silky top and no bottoms. Except—surprise!—she was actually wearing tiny shorts underneath than top.

2.

Alicia Keys is another star to use liquid liner to add drama to her look. She keeps the rest of her look spare with nude lips and eyelids.

GQ's 25 Most Fashionable Men of 2012 [List+Pics]

Whether it was athletes stepping up their game off the field, rappers saying goodbye to gaudy excess, or actors actually giving a shit, 2012 was the year famous guys finally got serious about taking risks and looking good. These are best-dressed gents we saw on every red carpet, big event, and beyond this year ending today with the five men who stood stylishly above the rest.

25. Frank Ocean

2012 was all about Ocean coming into his own as an artist. And when it came to dressing, the singer carved out a niche by mixing high-end goods with streetwear in visually interesting combos, usually finished off with a pair of old-school Vans.

24. Russell Westbrook
23. Wes Anderson
22. Archer

21. A$AP Rocky

There's a reason rappers and Rick Owens have been mentioned together this year, and that's all thanks to A$AP. The fashion-forward musician wears Margiela and Balmain with ease, but is never flashy with it. Case in point? Showing up to the more-is-more BET Awards in a slick, understated black rig.

20. Adam Levine

2012 was the year Adam Levine quit dressing like a Mad Max extra and started looking like the wealthy rock star turned jack-of-all-trades he actually is.

19. Yasiin Bey (Mos Def)
18. Andrew Garfield
17. Ryan Gosling
16. Andy Cohen

15. Jay-Z

Seated firmly on the throne, Jay-Z focused on his other big business ventures in 2012, which meant a wardrobe that consistently crossed over from black tie to cool streetwear and back again. The mogul even ditched blue jeans all together, opting instead for an arsenal of coated denim five-pockets and his beloved Baldwin camos, proving serious and stylish are not mutually exclusive.

14. Armie Hammer
13. Matt Lauer
12. Dwayne Wade
11. Matt Bomer

10. Nick Jonas

Older brother Joe may be the more adventurous one when it comes to fashion, but this year Nick earned our praises with a steady showing of dressed-up and -down looks that impressively walked the line between youthful and refined.

9. Justin Theroux
8. Tyson Chandler
7. Joseph Gordon-Levitt

6. Rob Pattinson

Pattinson's year was spent crisscrossing the globe in promotion of three flicks, giving the actor plenty of opportunities to break out his preferred Gucci suits, which he did in rapid, colorful succession. But it's not just tonal suit and shirt pairings the now former vampire got right; his grunge 2.0 getups have us wondering how much flannel we'll see on the Fall '13 runways.

5. Ewan McGregor
4. Bruno Mars
3. David Beckham
2. Zac Efron

1. Daniel Craig

Like the double-0 agent he plays on the big screen, Daniel Craig's go-to is a perfectly cut Tom Ford suit that frankly makes other famous guys look like they've never heard of a tailor. But the actor's hardly just a mannequin for his favorite designer's wares, and 2012 saw Craig expanding his sartorial horizons into new GQ-approved areas, whether it be adopting the brown suit, playing with unconventional shirt and tie combos, or just saying "eff it" and showing up to a premiere in some eye-grabbing Nikes.
