Fashion & Beauty

Maggie and Mackenzie look beautiful, while Bella drops the ball

The week’s style savvy worked modern threads with feminine flair. The ones who missed the mark went too far with their chosen themes, and still we are plagued with bad black.

Hits:

Mackenzie Davis

The rising star scored a fashion-forward Louis Vuitton look for the “What If” New York premiere, escaping the safe-bet girly-dress trap.

With thick eyeliner and a parted updo, she could be a 21st-century Sharon Tate, though one hopes with better luck.

Maggie Gyllenhaal

For the New York premiere of “Frank,” Gyllenhaal donned a simple Derek Lam dress with elegant ruffle detail offset with burgundy Valentino pumps.

The actress’ consistent sartorial serenity is a welcomed respite from those of Hollywood’s more garish stars.

Olivia Palermo

For Palermo, dressing well is a lifestyle. When others saunter the streets of Soho in gym shorts, she steps out in a crisp Ann Taylor shirt, vintage leather calf-length skirt and Aquazzura heels.

Finally, Western done well and inoffensively! Even the water bottle looks glamorous.

Selena Gomez

Taking a break from high-slits and plunging necklines, Gomez slipped into a striped Kalen turtleneck and skinny jeans to bounce around LA.

Finished with slick hair and circular shades, this mod moment is simple and polished and entirely on point — even if evocative of “Beetlejuice.”

Zoe Kazan

For her turn down the red carpet at the “What If” NYC premiere, Kazan picked a black Miu Miu embellished top, A-line skirt and captoe shoes.

The actress looks charming and casual, and not the least bit thirsty. It’s a superb example of why every young star should consider eschewing look-at-me-heels for flats.

Misses:

Bella Thorne

Do we even need to say she wore this to the “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” LA premiere?

No — because the T-shirt the 16-year-old ripped into an off-the-shoulder top is telling us all we need to know, while the skin-tight micromini is about to show more than we’d ever need to see.

In LA, there’s a brand called For Love & Lemons that hosts an annual “Skivvies party,” because apparently Los Angelenos need more occasions to look skanky.

Anyhow, this Canadian actress could have stopped with the night dress, but decided the award for least sexy outfit would be lost without a hat, cowboy boots and a bangle.

LaLa Anthony

It’s sad when you start giving celebs credit for not looking as bad as you’ve seen them before, but that’s where LaLa fits in the fashion registry.

That said, the woman herself looks fine; it’s the lemony lace sheer-paneled tablecloth that’s making us squint. But maybe they thought it was cute at the Market America International Convention in Greensboro, N.C.

Salma, this bustier top is strange and unsettling, and the saggy black palazzo pants cannot possibly flatter a woman of 5’2.”

You’re at the Beyoncé and Jay Z concert, so step it up. We all know you can do better than that . . .
