My favourite awards show is hands down the Logie Awards. I never know who anyone is besides Carrie Bickmore, the cast of Home & Away, and Shannon Noll. So I should hate it? But actually it’s the best? Because guys, for some unknown reason Australian celebs go absolutely fucking NUTS with the glitz/glam for the Logies. Like, it’s not a big awards show. A Logie does not mean much in the world of global television. But these people will whip out the huge, corseted, completely bedazzled numbers like they’re going to a royal wedding, but the bride is Irene from Home and Away.
As always, we’ve collected the best and most batshit outfits because that is all anyone cares about, the end.
SYLVIA JEFFREYS
I actually love this, even though wearing all those sequins HAS to give you an all-over body rash, right? Have you ever pulled on a seqinned fitted dress before? If you have – you get me. It feels like tiny spiky ants are crawling all over you, and then you can’t move. I bet Sylvia just walked around stiffly with her arm on her hip all night.
OSHER
Osh is looking fiiiiiine, I love a zesty bit of velvet – especially in the form of a navy blazer. 10/10.
GEORGIA LOVE
Everything about this screams “mum gave me the credit card to buy my year 10 formal dress” but for some reason I… don’t hate it? Maybe it’s the amazing purple colour, maybe it’s the excellent contrast heels… I don’t KNOW okay!? I JUST LIKE IT. IT’S HAPPY LIKE SUNSHINE AND RAINBOWS.
MAVOURNEE HAZEL
I have zero idea who the fuck Mavournee Hazel is, but this is a fantastic dress.
LEE CARSELDINE AND KRISTY BEST
Hahahaha who is anyone at this event? Who are these people? Whatever, I like this ENOUGH. Love the red velvet blazer (it’s a liiiittle too tight for him though, like he’s going to explode out of it at any given moment). Dress is ok… I hate when you can see where someone’s gaffered their boobs in with Hollywood Tape, you know? How the deep plunge has a vice-like grip just on the tit area and then gapes at the top?
ERIN HOLLAND
Love me a Morticia from Addams Family mood.
SIMONE HOLTZNAGEL
I wish the wings weren’t there, but you can’t have everything in life. You just can’t, and that is the sad truth.
SHANNON NOLL
SHANNON NOLL BRINGING THE STEEZ, BABEY! What a slick son of a bitch! Everything is working here besides his ever-present flavour saver. I just don’t understand how no one in his life has just said “Shan, mate, it’s time for the flavour saver to go, it’s not 2001 anymore”. Anyway, suit is great, red pocket square, great, slightly tipsy grin, great.
LIZ CANTOR
I love a fitted baby bump gown but something about this candy pink shade screams “we decided to do our gender reveal via my Logies dress surprise!”.
JULIA MORRIS
GodDAMN Julia Morris is such a fox!
KATE PECK
I love this dress and I extremely love the colour, I’ll even let that crown slide (although normally I would say “who do you think you are, Queen Elizabeth? Stay in your lane).
TESS HAUBRICH
Extremely love this.
CARRIE BICKMORE
You know what’s weird? How we all just love Carrie Bickmore. JUST LOVE HER! SO MUCH! It’s strange. Anyway, I LOVE CARRIE BICKMORE! And I half-love this dress I just wish we didn’t have the tentacle bits because it’s really putting me off my seafood lunch.
OLYMPIA VALANCE
There is always someone at the Logies who decides it’s the moment to trial their wedding gown. The only way I could accept this is if she lifted the front and SURPRISE! She’s smuggled 10 rescue puppies onto the red carpet.
SOPHIA FORREST
If formal jumpsuits made out of satin become a thing again I don’t want to live on this planet anymore.
CHERYL MAITLAND
It’s hard to see but that middle panel is like sheer stocking material. CHERYL HONEY, THIS IS NOT BRITNEY SPEARS ON TOUR.
MATTY J & LAURA BYRNE
This is the exact Mr K dress I begged mum to buy me for my year 10 formal.
SHAUN MICALLEF
His suit is whatever, like it’s fine it’s just a suit, I’m just popping Shaun in here because he literally pulled this pose, or some equally, wonderfully awkward equivalent, for the entirety of his red carpet appearance.
JOJO SIWA
I have no idea who this is, someone at work told me she sells hair bows? Like a child mogul with a lucrative hair bow business? I just… what am I doing with my life. This is batshit as fuck but she’s also 12 and that means she could go to the Logies in a dinosaur suit and it would be adorable.
NINJA WARRIOR PEOPLE
The Logies has to be the only event where you have actual wedding gowns on the red carpet, and then people who rock up in their footy shorts.
LEILA MCKINNON
This is bloody amazing but I need to know how many drunk Denise Drysdales got their hair caught in it at the Logies afterparty.
JUSTIN LACKO & CASSIDY MCGILL
In case you don’t just religiously read everything I write for this website (rude) I am currently recapping Love Island and therefore deeply obsessed with it/everyone on it, and got v excited to see these guys rocking up. Justin’s pinstripe suit is a mood but the open shirt is NOT, button it up and behave son.
JAN FRAN
If she hasn’t got a hidden flask of vodka in that shoulder, I will be disappointed.
KERRI-ANNE KENNERLEY
Look it’s KAK. She’s Aussie royalty. She’s a national treasure. She can wear anything she wants, who are we to judge? We are but mere mortals in her presence.
LISA WILKINSON
We decided last week that Lisa Wilkinson is loaded up with Big Dick Energy, and I am really feeling it here. Her smile says “I am friendly but if you fuck me over, try to mansplain me, or , give me anything in the remote realm of a stink-eye, I will ruin you”. Side note I want this dress Lisa so if you’re done with it, feel like sending it my way?
ROBERT IRWIN
CAN THE IRWIN FAMILY STOP BRINGING LIVE REPTILES TO RED CARPETED EVENTS IT IS JUST BAD MANNERS AT THIS POINT.
SONIA KRUGER
I’m a Sonia Kruger fan-girl and whatever weird anti-ageing potion she’s drinking, I want in. The blood of baby deer? Sure. I’ll do it. Also extremely into those two-tone silver strapped heels.
THE HONEY BADGER
I haven’t been on the Honey Badger fan-train, but hoo boy I’m firmly on it now! I’m the fucking CONDUCTOR, bitch! Doors closing please stand clear/refrain from drooling all over the upholstery. Anyway who cares what he’s wearing (it’s a good suit, approved) the man is sex on legs.
WILMER VALDERRAMA
Why is that guy from The 70’s Show at the Logies? Haha, I don’t know! Why is he wearing pink-tinted sunglasses at night time? It’s a mystery!
KATE CEBERANO
LOVE IT. Love the sleeves, love the smoky eye, love the hair.
MELINA VIDLER
This is, to me, an acceptable level of train to have at the Logies.
MIRANDA TAPSELL
LOVE this dress and the hot pink racing stripe situation, also love the insane earring thingy, although I’m mildly terrified of it. How many piercing holes is it going through and what level of pain was that *faints*.
BRITT SCOTT CLARK
I mean I am a sucker for anything vaguely resembling something a cult leader would wear, so of course this is my favourite red carpet outfit. Britt I’ll also accept this in an express post bag, you can team up with Lisa Wilkinson to save on postage if you like.
KSENIJA LUKICH
I feel like Ksenija is dressing sensibly for the vibe of the Logies, but then everyone else has just leaned aggressively hard into black-tie and now she looks really underdressed?
CARLY BOWYER AND TROY DELMEGE
MAFS feels like it happened 3053 years ago now, so I’m shocked these two are still together.
NATALIA COOPER
I would really like for people to stop wearing capes now. It’s always like “ooh how can we improve this cute dress? Let’s just HIDE HALF OF IT UNDER A LARGE SWATHE OF MATERIAL FOR NO REASON”.
ALI OETJEN
Splits this high always give me hives bc once I wore just a mid-thigh split and managed to flash unsuspecting folks at least 4 times, so I can only imagine the stress levels Ali is experiencing right now.
