Worst Oscar styles EVER: Bjork, 2001

You know, I almost didn't include Bjork's infamous Swan Dress from the 2001 Academy Awards on this list of worst Oscar styles ever, and I'm sure you want to know why. It's not because I think wearing swans around our necks is the new hot thing -- however, we are talking about Bjork (have you listened to her music? She's not exactly one to follow the crowd), and to be honest, I'd be totally disappointed if she showed up in a chic, sophisticated black gown.

Plus, she donated the dress to be auctioned off to benefit Oxfam, so I feel like that somewhat exonerates her from the fashion crime. That being said, it was still a swan, not a real dress. It makes me curious to know what she'll wear every time she hits the red carpet, though!
