- The 2023 Brit Awards took place at the O2 Arena in London on Saturday.
- Many celebrities went for daring looks, but others missed the mark when it came to red-carpet style.
David Guetta's red-and-white letterman jacket, which matched his pants and shoes, was slightly too casual for a red carpet.

The DJ, 55, paired the Louis Vuitton jacket with white pants and a pair of red and white sneakers that was significantly more casual than other daring looks at the 2023 Brit Awards.
Guetta, who won producer of the year at the award ceremony, could've hit the mark with his ensemble if he'd swapped his letterman jacket for a suit jacket with a similar color scheme.
In a similar vein, Lewis Capaldi's ensemble – consisting of a folksy cardigan on an otherwise all-black outfit – was too simple.

The "Someone You Loved" singer, 26, who posted an Instagram photo of his head photoshopped onto Sam Smith's latex Brit Awards outfit, could've actually taken a page out of Smith's style notebook and gone for a more daring look for the awards show.
Pairing his folksy, floral jacket with coordinating pants, for example, may have made Capaldi's red carpet look more memorable.
Ashnikko's alien-like prosthetics and latex dress looked more like a costume than red carpet-attire.

The US singer's ensemble, which was custom designed by latex label Hydra, featured bulging body prosthetics on her upper and lower back. Speaking to Dazed Magazine in a clip shared on the publication's Instagram, Ashnikko, 26, also said she was "covered in lube."
The ensemble was certainly daring, but perhaps better suited to a Halloween costume than the Brit Awards red carpet.
Model and actor Adwoa Aboah wore an oversized suit jacket, black pants, a collared shirt, and a tie. The outfit lacked any memorable quality.

Aboah, who stars in the Disney Plus "Willow" TV series, has worn some spectacular daring red carpet looks in the past, according to her Instagram.
Unfortunately, her 2023 Brit Awards ensemble was underwhelming in comparison. Aboah, 30, could've upped the ante by either wearing an even more exaggerated oversized suit jacket or pairing it with a more playful, colorful undershirt.
British country singer Megan McKenna was another celebrity whose outfit was better suited for a costume party than a red carpet.

McKenna, 30, wore a leather-like black mini dress that featured two daring slits and bedazzled patterns. She paired it with matching black elbow-length gloves, a cowboy hat, and cowboy boots.
Like other celebrities on the red carpet, the singer's outfit veered too far into looking like a costume than a look to be worn to an award ceremony. If she'd scaled it back, by either getting rid of the bedazzled parts or the slits, it may have looked more red-carpet-suited.
Singer Tallia Storm wore a bubblegum pink bikini with a fuzzy cardigan, knee-high boots, and a hat that looked out of place on the red carpet.

According to the 24-year-old singer's Instagram, her outfit consisted of a sustainably made bikini. The woolly clothing items were designed by Imi Studios, a slow fashion brand.
Although the ensemble was daring, it would've made more sense to see it rocked by a model at Miami Swim Week rather than at the 2023 Brit Awards in London during the icy cold month of February.
Opting for a pink mini dress rather than a bikini could've improved Storm's overall outfit.
Harry Styles' giant statement flower, which matched his peplum velvet suit, was too big.

If it had been just a few inches smaller, the oversized floral choker would've been the perfect statement piece to complement the custom-designed Nina Ricci suit Styles, 29, wore.
The rest of his ensemble, which consisted of black velvet flared pants, and a coordinating peplum-style suit jacket worked perfectly.
MNEK's went all out in pink at the 2023 Brit Awards, which would've hit the nail on the head with more tailoring and less jewelry.

MNEK, 28, wore head-to-toe pink on the red carpet – his outfit included a pink balaclava and shiny pink shoes.
The only elements that could've been improved came down to tailoring and accessorizing. The singer's pants were slightly too long for him and the suit jacket was large in certain places.
Since the outfit was super elaborate already, the multiple necklaces he wore took away from how playful and fun the overall look was.
