16 Celebrities Who Boldly Rocked Controversial Outfits

Sydney Sweeney, the Emmy-nominated star of Euphoria, has once again found herself at the center of social media buzz — this time over a wedding guest outfit that’s dividing the internet. Her eye-catching corset dress, worn to Glen Powell’s sister’s wedding, quickly became the talk of the town. While some fans admired her bold fashion choice, others called it out as “inappropriate” for the event, igniting a heated debate online.
Sweeney, who had called off her own wedding just months before, attended the family wedding in a corset-style dress that matched the bridesmaids’ attire. Her look was both chic and controversial. The dress featured a structured bodice and a floor-length skirt in a rich shade of blue.
The dress quickly became a point of contention. Some expressed admiration, “Wow, she looks amazing here!” Others felt it was a misstep for a wedding guest. “That is not an appropriate shade of blue for a wedding,” one user wrote on Twitter.
Many felt that Sweeney’s outfit was too attention-grabbing for a guest and could be seen as disrespectful: “That shade of blue said, ’Look at me, not the bride,’” and “We’re upset about the blue? Not the fact that it’s lingerie?”
The color and boldness of the outfit sparked quite a reaction. One commenter expressed surprise, “Wow! She was wearing that.. to a wedding?” Another responded sharply, “If someone went to my wedding with this dresd, they will be asked nicely to go away.” Someone even called Sydney’s revealing style irritating, “Honestly it’s so annoying.” Yet another person wrote, “Why is she wearing lingerie?”
This is not the first time Sweeney has courted controversy with her fashion choices. She’s been known for pushing the boundaries of red carpet attire and flaunting daring looks. Whether it’s her sultry, cut-out gowns or bold color choices, she’s become a style icon for many.
