The Logies 'worst dressed' list is complete b*llshit.

It’s mean, nasty, unnecessary and not even particularly interesting.

For those of you who don’t know. The Logies happened last night.

There’s still a buzz happening around everything that went down. From Carrie Bickmore’s stellar Gold Logie speech, Megan Gale maybe… possibly… definitely not… flashing an engagement ring, to the likes of new mums Asher Keddie and Sonia Kruger embracing their post-pregnancy bosoms in plunging gowns.

So when I woke up this morning and began my usual dig around the news, there was one (common) story that made me feel disappointed and sigh, “God, really?”

It’s the story where were pick apart what stars (99.9% of which are women… funny that) are wearing. Where we analyse every single detail, every inch of skin and preach comments like:

“That gown is too modest,” or “that gown is too exposed.”

“That outfit is too over the top,” or “that outfit is too understated.”

“That dress is too busy,” or “that dress is too boring.”

'Too much fake tan' apparently.

You guessed it, it’s the infamous Logies ‘worst dressed’ list. The embarrassing, cruel and outdated tradition where we point and laugh at stars who apparently lost when it comes to the ‘fashion stakes’.

"Bee-keeper hats teamed with gold slippers, princess party dresses and shapeless aqua 'sleeping bags': The bad, the worse and the downright shocking Logie fashion failures revealed," The Daily Mail cried. "Logies 2015 red carpet shockers: Susie Elelman, Conchita Wurst and Samantha Jade," News.com.au screamed.

The earlier of which, is also written by a woman. Because there's nothing like a little girl on girl judgement right?

Why are we still doing it? Why are we throwing Australian women under the bus? And why are we encouraging each other to do the same?

It’s done, it’s out dated and it needs to stop.

Let's give our attention to Carrie.

We should be rightly turning our attention to women like Carrie Bickmore, who used her two minutes on stage for brain cancer awareness.

To make a difference and to say something that mattered.

We should be rejoicing Olympia Valance's achievements, not fussing over her 'modest' gown. We should be high fiving Rebecca Judd for being an awesome working mum, not complaining about her tan. We should be nodding wisely at Lee Lin Chin who has so much to teach us, instead of commenting on her (amazing, by the way) hat.

We as women, need to keep pulling each other up and on, like we all do every day and stop dragging each other down when it comes to something as trivial as a red carpet gown.

Because the Logies worst dressed list is nothing but complete bullshit.

SCROLL THROUGH the gallery for the stars who were apparently the 'worst dressed' and read our comment for why they're certainly not...
