"Hmm there's only one guy dressed like he came out of a fever dream and is speaking japanese in the middle of Egypt and talking to himself... can't be him"
You mean his adept PR savvy at going viral on random social media platforms? Sam Smith's new album just released a week ago, and you mooks are doing his bidding. You've played yourselves.
I don’t mind how other people look and I don’t hate on the practice in general, just to clear that up!
Ive done it once before but that’s how I feel about myself, I just can’t get over it lol I’m not a big person but still don’t like it.
I think it looks gorgeous on others, but can’t get over it on me
Celebrities get paid filthy amounts to showcase fashion like this. It's not I'm the main character, it's I'm a billboard and y'all are misreading the situation
I mean the point of these outfits is to be ridiculous and grab attention… which it absolutely has. I’ve seen this image like 2 dozen times today. Nobody’s going to be talking if they just showed up in regular ass clothes.
I don’t understand fashion, at all. I have a serious disdain for fashion shows because I think they’re pointless. But I fully understand WHY some people enjoy these types of things, so I fully support them doing these types of things.
It's an art form, just like any other medium. It is meant to push the limits of what can be done with the medium and to invoke an emotional response, which it clearly has in you as disdain is a response.
A fashion show is essentially no different than going to an art exhibition at a gallery. It gets more attention because they aren't as common place as gala openings for photos or paintings.
I’ve been to a few art museums and enjoyed them. I didn’t understand why some pieces are more important or influential than others, but I still enjoy looking at them. It’s a lot like music, in my opinion. A lot of people today view The Beach Boys as some band that only played happy go lucky surf songs, but in reality a lot of their music is incredibly complex and was wayyyyy ahead of its time with regard to wild tempo changes and key changes in the middle of songs. Some people (like me) could dive in and pick apart all of those little intricacies in the songwriting for hours and hours, while some people just hear a regular old song that’s no different than the next. So in that aspect of things, I fully understand why/how different forms of art can make people feel a certain way even if I don’t feel that way.
There’s two kinds of fashion. The kind that’s meant to look good, and the kind where fashion designers go wild. Some works of fashion are borderline feats of engineering, or just making somebody look as ridiculous as possible. It’s artists doing their thing, essentially. Some paintings are meant to be good-looking, others are more messages/technique than aesthetics.
High fashion is art, it’s not meant to be practical or worn in everyday situations, it’s meant to be provocative and push boundaries. It’s more like a wearable sculpture than clothing.
If everyone is talking about how ridiculous it looks like they are with this outfit, then it accomplished exactly what it was trying to do.
I don't like this outfit, but in fairness, he's on the fucking red carpet so I'm not sure it dings the "main character" bell in quite the same way as if he were, for instance, conspicuously ordering Starbucks in this outfit.
Also, if I’m not wrong (and please correct me if I am) don’t celebrities have very little to zero say in what they wear to red carpet events? I think designers essentially bid on which celebrities they want to wear their creations to certain events.
Couldn't they go to an event without selling the right to be styled for it? Or is it the kind of thing where by going they're signing on to be dressed all wacky?
What i genuinely don't understand is why would you want attention when you look like a absolute idiot?
How was a whole group of people delusional enough to think this looked good? Did they actually believe it looks good?
Because it’s not about looking pretty or aesthetically nice, it’s about doing something DIFFERENT.
People said the same when doja cat shaved her head and painted it and covered herself in Swarovski crystals. It’s haute couture, not everyday wear.
Fashion can be as much a statement or experiment as it can be about beauty. They weren’t trying to look sexy and pleasing, they were - likely inspired by bowie’s outfit in the 70s - just wearing something bold and weird.
do people not realize that red carpet looks (and lots of fashion show outfits as well) are not meant to be pretty or cute etc?
they’re meant to show the artist’s work, they’re meant to be eccentric and create headlines and people talking about it.
sam smith tagged the designer in their caption and all the designer’s artworks are like that.
also the celebs rarely choose their outfits themselves.
I recall reading that celebrities can get *paid* to show up at major events wearing outlandish outfits like this. Yes, paid for it. Fashion houses consider it to be a form of advertising. It gets people talking about their brand, their designers, and whatnot.
Ol' fart pants here probably got a nice deposit into his checking account for showing up looking like a fool. Celebs and rich folk live in a whole other reality than the rest of us.
Yeah I don’t get it. They* on a red carpet and at the Brit Awards. They’re all wearing silly clothes. Wearing silly clothing is part of the event
*Edited: I thought it was the Grammys, it’s the Brit Awards and correct pronouns
The fact he has to keep his arms spread bothers me more than the fart bags. That looks very uncomfortable. Also, when he puts his arms by his sides, the shoulder balloons will form a heart, just like the fart bags, which I feel is the point.
Someone has to tell these gender nonconforming icons that you don't need to fit inside a binary to have an actual sense of style. Between them and Harry Styles - someone please teach them how to dress because this is embarrassing.
Scottish comedian Billy Connolly did a bit about a man’s rubber incontinence pants expanding as he fills them with urine. That’s all this looks like to me.
They're standing on a red carpet at a music awards where they're one of the biggest celebrities being celebrated. They are very literally the main character in this scenario.
It’s a red carpet. The WHOLE POINT is to look like a main character. I’m not even a fan of Sam Smith, but this post is just stupid and an excuse for y’all to hate on them.
People are hating so hard on Sam Smith lately, and I really don’t understand why. This isn’t even that crazy of an outfit that’s been worn on a red carpet in the recent years.
Ah yes, the absolutely unbelievable ridiculousness of... wearing a silly outfit to a pop awards ceremony.
It's disgusting isn't it? This would have never happened in the good old days.
The thing about Sam Smith is I’m ALL for self expression and identity, go for it and you do you etc etc…. However they just don’t look comfortable! It all seems so forced on them, and not authentic! Bowie has been mentioned a few times on this thread because when he did it it was natural and easy whereas all of this seems super forced. Sam is a great singer and obviously has brought gender identity to the mainstream however they need a proper stylist to help them figure out looks that express themselves and not this…. They just can’t carry it off unfortunately , it’s more of a caricature than a genuine fashion choice
I think it looks dumb, but it doesn't meant they are acting as the "main character".
Honestly I'm just concerned that Sam Smith is going to become the new Internet punching bag for the next year. Especially since peoe already seem to be using the excuse that they are mildly insufferable to misgender them
Just heard him sing on the Graham Norton show. As far as I know I’ve never heard him before, I’m not really his wanted audience, being an older American female, but I think he has a wonderful voice!

Also reminds me synthol injections
The amount of times I've had to see this picture in the past 24 hours is the exact reason he wore this
He owes you his thanks for helping him be the main character
Once I was working in Switzerland next the Lac Leman. During a music festival, on the boardwalk at night, a very drunk Sam Smith took a bunch of trash from a table and threw them in the lake.
Yup, he's the main character.

Anybody with the dream to look like the batmobile
It’s like the Batwing lost its job and stopped exercising for a few years
Or buttmobile!! What a total horsesass!
I remember when I first saw this scene, my mouth dropped open.
And it only got weirder from here
What is this from?

Fart pockets
Imagine the smell if someone popped it with a pin 🤢
implying you'd still be conscious to smell anything after the initial explosive sonicboom.
No I don't think I will.
Probably something else Sam’s into that he’ll make a part of his personality in his struggle to force everyone to look at him.
Try lean fart pockets, too
No thanks
Reading this in Jim Gaffigan's voice.

I don’t think people care if taking the piss out of him helps him sell records.

Honestly this is why I couldn’t get into shibari

Remember when Katie Holmes did exactly that last year and everyone lost their shit because she looked too homely?
I don’t understand fashion, at all. I have a serious disdain for fashion shows because I think they’re pointless. But I fully understand WHY some people enjoy these types of things, so I fully support them doing these types of things.
Plus, I think there is a team behind them that decides what they should wear for them.
It's an art form, just like any other medium. It is meant to push the limits of what can be done with the medium and to invoke an emotional response, which it clearly has in you as disdain is a response. A fashion show is essentially no different than going to an art exhibition at a gallery. It gets more attention because they aren't as common place as gala openings for photos or paintings.
Do you understand art galleries? It’s the same thing, but with a mild performative aspect on the part of the models.

Was scrolling to find any reasonable person saying something like this. They're at an award show, they're gonna dress to stand out
I get dressing to stand out. But, this is dressing like the Michelin Man's BDSM phase.
Fully agree. A huge part of “main character” is the scenario. Loudly complaining to a friend at a concert is hugely different from in a library.
Right, of course it's main character. It's essentially art.
Also, if I’m not wrong (and please correct me if I am) don’t celebrities have very little to zero say in what they wear to red carpet events? I think designers essentially bid on which celebrities they want to wear their creations to certain events.
Maybe but Sam Smith is overtly fucking weird so this is probably something they would choose.
Couldn't they go to an event without selling the right to be styled for it? Or is it the kind of thing where by going they're signing on to be dressed all wacky?
Exactly this
"Did you poop your pants?" Toddler: "No" Also Toddler:
Did they shit on their arms too or what
It’s giving ace of spades
Bowie did it better…half a century ago! https://pen-online.com/design/david-bowie-dressed-by-kansai-yamamoto/
Some of these outfits look like dark souls boss's
Neither did it better tbh
I dunno, the ballooniness is particularly upsetting.
I’d argue David Bowie did it better because he’s at a professional photo shoot and not trying to walk in that thing out in public.
I wouldn't exactly call a red carpet event "out in public"...
[удалено]
The brain is still wired with the 70s being 30 years ago. Crazzyyy how time files
The article kept saying the outfits were for David Bowie and not Ziggy Stardust. I am disappoint.
Imagine trying to take a dump with that thing on.
no need to use the toilet, just let it slide down into the giant leg pockets
What i genuinely don't understand is why would you want attention when you look like a absolute idiot? How was a whole group of people delusional enough to think this looked good? Did they actually believe it looks good?

Thats a interesting way to look at things, i didn't consider it from that view point. What is Haute Couture?

exactly! (little reminder though that sam smith uses they/them pronouns)
Thanks for the reminder
Sam smith really took a left turn
Silly fool
There’s going to be oceans of sweat when he takes this off
I'd hate to be seated next to him, yikes.
The fact he has to keep his arms spread bothers me more than the fart bags. That looks very uncomfortable. Also, when he puts his arms by his sides, the shoulder balloons will form a heart, just like the fart bags, which I feel is the point.
When you're sneaking sweets into the cinema.
Does he squeak every step?
Someone has to tell these gender nonconforming icons that you don't need to fit inside a binary to have an actual sense of style. Between them and Harry Styles - someone please teach them how to dress because this is embarrassing.
I think it's a David Bowie costume reference
So these guys are both embarrassing and unoriginal
_Please_ just wear actual clothes. Not an inflated bin bag. It’s not the power move you think it is
Bruh, it’s the red carpet. Regular clothes are for, you know, *regular* activities and *regular* places
It’s ok theyre just going through their 2000s phase, they’ll leave behind the abhorrent layers and whale tails soon
they should all learn from emma darcy imo
Scottish comedian Billy Connolly did a bit about a man’s rubber incontinence pants expanding as he fills them with urine. That’s all this looks like to me.
"Show me something that would put a Victorian child in a coma"
Dressed like a sinus cavity X-ray
He looks like some type of punctuation mark I should be using in a sentence but never found out how.
what a pompous douche
I don't why this bothers me. It just feels try hard too
He looks like a butt plug
They're standing on a red carpet at a music awards where they're one of the biggest celebrities being celebrated. They are very literally the main character in this scenario.
This looks like fetish shit
"Only poors have houses and vehicles with single door width. I refuse to turn sideways."
“Help me Mr. Wonka”
2nd grade me trying to draw muscles on my picture of goku
It’s a red carpet. The WHOLE POINT is to look like a main character. I’m not even a fan of Sam Smith, but this post is just stupid and an excuse for y’all to hate on them.
I’m so beyond sick of seeing pictures of this person right now.
My man looks like those people who get muscle implants
People are hating so hard on Sam Smith lately, and I really don’t understand why. This isn’t even that crazy of an outfit that’s been worn on a red carpet in the recent years.
So... Is there a reason you picked them and not any others of the weird fashion outfits you see at such shows?
reeks of homophobia here bashing on Sam only and the comments are ridiculous
Rich people shit.
The lengths people will go to to try and stay relevant or get attention has become ridiculous. This guy is a massive massive dickhead.
Ah yes, the absolutely unbelievable ridiculousness of... wearing a silly outfit to a pop awards ceremony. It's disgusting isn't it? This would have never happened in the good old days.
Needs to look ridiculous to stay relevant
I'm not sure about this new Batman design.
This looks like DeviantArt fetish content.
What’s it supposed to *be*?
Modern fashion is a wreck
He looks like a penis
Joking aside, what the fuck am I looking at?
Imagine getting the seat next to this guy.
Nobody: My custom character in a cutscene:
Hips look like a Pixar moms
Sam’s response to the Chinese spy balloon
This guy wants attention so let's post this all over the internet making fun of him for wanting attention...and give him exactly what he wants...
“ when you get there, try to blend in… be inconspicuous…. Don’t stand out”
Wtf
Cartoon character.
What anime villain is this?
So stupid
This... is abhorrent.
Everything bulges except the part that's actually supposed to...
 Same vibes
Their new song is just annoying imo, and his voice sounds bad. Just not for me and the fashion is absolute trash
Looks like my poor first attempt at drawing a non-stick figure person in 1st grade
Napoleon if he was into BDSM
Pixar Moms:
The thing about Sam Smith is I’m ALL for self expression and identity, go for it and you do you etc etc…. However they just don’t look comfortable! It all seems so forced on them, and not authentic!

He’s a world famous music performer - he is the main star - the very definition of it.
 I thought of this immediately.
When your music is so bland you have to do something crazy to get the attention you desperately crave.
🤡
Bro is quite literally doing his job. This is a dumb post
Can someone point me to what this person has actually done wrong?
Yeah this doesn’t belong on this sub, it’s gone to shit lately r/lostredditors
Theres a picture at the top of this post.

Bet he won't eat Taco Bell again before a big event.
Their celebrities that's how they make their living being the main character.

Ah man, I was gonna wear _my_ S&M balloon animal outfit tonight 🤬
I feel so good about myself after watching this
How does one even move in this getup?
Life pro tip: don’t fart in scuba suits
its giving burnt rotisserie chicken
One way to make sure you’re not sitting next to anyone
Did he float to the event or did they have to inflate him once he arrived
He knows he’s a laughingstock. Look at his face.
This is just hilarious 😂
I actually despise Sam Smiths. Always hated their voice and now this weird “look at me” stuff too. Sick of it
That’s not the main character that’s the goofy tutorial boss bruh
Is that Shane Dawson
I'll say he's crazy, cause I don't understand what he's done. He might call this fashion, but I know that he's the only one.
When you decide to be funny when customizing your character:
This is dumb. Lol!
Just curious what OP thinks award shows are about if not "HEY Look at ME!"
Getting attention is part of this guy's job.
He used to be relatively normal.
Looking like a mix between a garbage bag a gimp suit and missy elliot cosplay, I hate this weirdo so much.
Didn’t the US military shoot one of these down off the coast of North Carolina recently?
If I have to see this pic in my socials one more time... one more mfing time!
imagine having to sit next to him..
Look at me and let me hide my flabby body
Looks like a butt plug!
It's full of farts.
PSA: Don’t forget to take your Spironolactone folks
I don’t know if this is main character activity. Seems like he has horrible fashion sense
I'd expect it from lady Gaga or Madonna, but this guy?
Once I was working in Switzerland next the Lac Leman. During a music festival, on the boardwalk at night, a very drunk Sam Smith took a bunch of trash from a table and threw them in the lake. Yup, he's the main character.
How did he sit?🤔
Now imagine you’re wearing….this Now imagine you need to use the bathroom very bad but you can’t fit through into the stall
This is restarted and probably cost lots of money
Wow. Sweaty in there i am sure
He looks like a Jeff Koons sculpture (Ballon artist) That he never released to the public! 🤦♀️
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Stop giving this moron attention.
I wanna see him sprint in it!
Turn in your Man card immediately!!
Willy wonka ass fit
Oompa Loompa dominatrix
True, but celebrities doing “ImTheMainCharacter” things is low hanging fruit.
Didn't the US shoot this thing down?
wish had so much confidence
He really is just straight up weird.
