Suki Waterhouse Outfits That Totally Missed The Mark

There are certain celebrities that we can always count on to challenge our sense of fashion and what makes us raise eyebrows, in both a good and bad way. Suki Waterhouse is one of them. Sometimes the model, singer, and actor nails quirky-meets-sexy on the red carpet, and sometimes we wonder who were the enablers that recommended she leave the house in these outfits.

Waterhouse is no stranger to making headlines for all the wrong fashion reasons. In 2025, she revealed that she suffered from a hernia after she wore pants that were too tight, putting her in the league of red carpet outfits that seriously hurt (literally!). But it hasn't always been bad. She was one of the celebrity looks that had us swooning in August 2024, for instance. The next month, however, she also wore an outfit that totally missed the mark. If nothing else, we have to say that this Brit always keeps it interesting.

At the L.A. premiere of "The Drama" in March 2026, the fashion headlines were firmly focused on Zendaya reinventing her buzziest red carpet look 11 years later with old-school bridal tradition. Then there was her co-star, Robert Pattinson, who arrived with his partner Suki Waterhouse on his arm. While many fans loved her Harris Reed dress, others found it chaotic, especially when she stood next to her baby daddy. Partners in Hollywood should follow the unspoken rule that you should coordinate, or at least complement, your plus-one, not create discord when posing together.

The internet did not fail to react when Suki Waterhouse, in Zoe Gustavia Anna Whalen, attended the 2025 "Die My Love" premiere with Robert Pattinson in NYC. Someone on Reddit commented, "They look like extras in 'Interview with the Vampire,'" and another wrote, "Suki's dress reminds me of my grandmother's couch: ugly floral coming apart at the seams." A Facebook user shared a similar sentiment: "My grandmother's curtains," read the comment. The collective reaction affirms what we thought — this outfit looks outdated.

Fun fact: Sloths look green because algae grows on them. We're not suggesting that Suki Waterhouse is slow-moving, but we are finding comparisons with her Michael Kors fuzzy coat. She wore the designer's pieces head-to-toe for his New York Fashion Week presentation in September 2025, and the feedback included all sorts of comparisons beyond sloths. "Your grandma wants her rug back, Suki," wrote one Instagram critic. Someone called her "Cousin It" from "The Addams Family," while another added, "Big Bird called and wants his jacket back."

After her role in 2024's "Daisy Jones and The Six," Suki Waterhouse decided to switch career gears and pursue music. The indie pop star has been playing for crowds the past few years, including at the Superbloom Festival in Munich in August '25. Her performance outfits can be described as eclectic, featuring a lot of texture, like more furry jackets, this Blumarine flowy dressing gown thingy, plus a lot of pink, and boots. See? Eclectic.

Just because it's Valentino doesn't mean it's right. Suki Waterhouse's look from the designer had a lot going on — fur, a tapestry skirt, a gold bow, sheer top, lace gloves — at the 2025 Billboard Women in Music event. Reddit users didn't fail to creatively critique the look. One wrote, "It feels very 'Grey Gardens,'" while another added, "My god, [this] is maximalism gone wrong." Another shared a common sentiment: "I feel like it wears her. She doesn't wear it." In summary, this outfit missed the mark.

Suki Waterhouse landed on our list of worst-dressed celebs at the 2024 VMAs, despite garnering some praise for her Dolce & Gabbana outfit. The dress, if you can call it that, featured an ankle-length black skirt that had almost garter-like straps that connected to a bra top. Over that she wore a cropped feather-y jacket that looked like a boa. And that's where this look missed the mark. The feathers overwhelmed the "Supersad" singer's face, swallowing her in the process.

Suki Waterhouse may have a penchant for avant-garde looks, but this one from a 2026 pre-Grammys party missed the mark. For starters, she looked a little too close to a Rey from "Star Wars" wannabe with the draped material belted (with a tie?) and worn over pants. From different angles, you could see that this wasn't a top at all, but rather a frayed scarf that she threw around her neck and then belted. We can see where she was going, but unfortunately the little things threw this 'fit off course.

When Suki Waterhouse was snapped on the street in L.A. in September 2024 wearing this outfit, we had to wonder where she was going. Because what kind of occasion is this outfit suitable for? We get the fun vibe of the maximalist suit with its oversized jacket and flower appliqué juxtaposed with a tiny top and capris. But the capris are a little too tiny and ill-fitting. And the sleeves extend far beyond her fingers, making it impractical for doing much with her hands.

This is another outfit that looks like it's wearing Suki Waterhouse, not the other way around. Because the eye immediately gets engulfed in silver, to the point that looking at her face is an afterthought. This Alexandre Vauthier look that Waterhouse wore straight from the runway to the 2022 British Fashion Awards was actually a cape over a skirt. It might not have felt as overwhelming if she'd chosen a few pieces from the look and left behind one silver element, even if it was the boots, to make this more palatable.
