The stars hit the streets of Paris in full force this week for haute couture fashion week — but not everyone dressed to impress in the fashion capital of the world. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Olivia Palermo both wowed in Dior — while American embarrassment Kesha whooped it up stateside for the Fourth of July.
The hits:

Olivia Palermo

Ciara

Ciara turns heads in this purple gown at the Kensington Palace Summer Gala to raise funds for the care of the Royal Ceremonial Dress Collection in London.
Alexa Chung

The misses:
Kesha

Charli XCX

The voluminous dress — not to mention the matching flip-flops — are an eyesore at the Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb fragrance 10th anniversary party at Paris haute couture fashion week.
Lily Collins

Cara Delevingne

Who wore it best?
