2015 has been a big year for fashion... But who wore it best?
2015 has been a big year for a lot of things: rising house prices, bad weather and a lot of celebrities wearing the same outfit.
With designers all the more eager to see their designs on the hottest celebs of the moment, there were bound to be clashes... You're wearing the same dress as FKA twigs the very night after she did, Alexa? Awkward. Or - God forbid - two celebs wearing the outfit to the SAME event. We don't even want to think about it...
Pandering to our judgmental side (sorry not sorry), we can't help but weigh up who looks best in an outfit; whether we're impressed by one celeb's daring, charmed by another's willing to try a new look or wowed by their expert accessorising...
This sartorial nightmare leaves us with one question: Who wore it best?

GettySame print: Georgia or Clara?
In what could have been a horribly embarrassing moment - as they rocked up to the same event wearing the SAME print - Georgia May Jagger and Clara Paget styled it out well, posing side-by-side for the cameras. Both manage to make jellyfish print look cool, but who did it better? Let's break it down...
Georgia, who wore the trouser suit version, teamed the fun print with a black bralet under her blazer and brown boots. She looks pretty and feminine in the look... P.s check out those abs!
Burberry model Clara rocked up in a dress covered in the same print: it's button-up, relaxed and floaty which we LOVE.
WINNER: We'll have to hand this one to Georgia: we've just got such a thing for trouser suits at the moment. Props to both for rocking the jellyfish print, though.
Getty/RexPink glittery suit: Miley or Lady Gaga?
Firstly, it has to be said, both women are formidable when it comes to outlandish fashion. Miley Cyrus has a penchant for skimpy diamante leotards while Lady Gaga has been known to rock… errr, meat. For this pink glittery suit however, it’s up for much debate who wore it best.
Miley, who wore the suit to the One and Red's World Aids Day concert in December, teamed it with cowboy boots, matching dangly earrings and glitter in her slicked-back hair. She reminds us of a Barbie: Wild West Sheriff Edition.
Lady Gaga wore the suit with her staple mega-platforms and a long blonde ponytail. To finish off her jazzy take on the suit, Gaga added a matching glittery hat. Where’s your hat, Miley?!
WINNER: So although Lady Gaga got major points for effort with her matching hat, Miley’s cowboy boots have won us over. They’re emblazoned with pink stars and a glitter heel. PERFECT.
GettyLovers lace gown: FKA twigs or Alexa?
What do you get when you pit the reigning BFAs British Style Award winner with a two-time British Style Award winner? A who-wore-it-better conundrum, that’s what. Both FKA twigs and Alexa Chung wore similar Christopher Kane ‘lovers lace’ dresses to events in 2015, but we’re struggling to decide who did it more justice. Let's break it down…
FKA twigs wore it first to the 2015 Met Gala. Although a few fashion critics slammed her outfit choice, we think it suits her fashion-forward, eclectic style perfectly.
Alexa later wore the bold choice to the Serpentine Summer Party, this time in blue colours with pleated detail at the bottom.
WINNER: For a dress that looks like it could be hung up in the Tate, it’s a hard job deciding who wins. The dresses are equally daring, and both wearers get props for that. However, on a small margin, we think we prefer Alexa’s more romantic version of the dress. Round of applause for both ladies, though.
GettyPeach maxi: Gigi or Olivia?
This nude/ peach shade is a hard hue for anyone to pull off. But somehow, when they stepped out in the same Self-Portrait silk maxi dress, both Gigi Hadid and Olivia Palermomanaged to. But who rocked it better? This one has to be down to the accessorising…
First there’s Gigi, who championed matching hues all round. We love her camel-coloured coat flung over her shoulders worn with seamlessly matching nude heels.
Olivia on the other hand, went for a simple brown heel and a cute clutch. Did you notice her beauty look too? Her honey blonde locks styled into natural waves alongside a glittery bronze eye and nude lip were beauty inspo perfection.
WINNER: This one’s Olivia’s. We fear Gigi might have overdone it with the camel coat, whereas Olivia just looks like a peachy vision. Sorry, Gigi – you still look gorgeous.
Getty/BarcroftFloral slip dress: Karlie or Rihanna?
Both vastly different takes on this summer slip dress by Reformation; but whose is better, Rihanna's or Karlie's?
Karlie Kloss wore it dressed down in the day-time with wet hair, sandals and a Frappuccino in tow. Rihanna, on the other hand, dressed it up with heels, a handbag, and a bouncy evening hairdo.
WINNER: Rihanna edges this one; we love her ability to give the simplest of garments a sexy evening twist like she did with this one. It's the perfect date-night outfit. Impeccable.
Getty/SplashBlack velvet dress: Caitlyn or Oprah
The Queen of talk TV, Oprah Winfrey, goes head-to-head with Caitlyn Jenner. The outfit in question? A black velvet dress worthy of any distinguished lady. But who wore it better? Hmm…
Caitlyn wore the dress to Logo TV's Beautiful As I Want To Be launch party in LA in October with black bowed heels and a clutch. Oprah, who wore it to be a guest on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, teamed it with black studded heels with her signature big blowdry.
WINNER: We literally can't decide on this one. Both oozed class and elegance in the simple number.We want to hear what you think... Tweet us at @GlamourMagUK
GettyCut-out gown: Miley or Ciara?
It’s by Alexandre Vauthier. It’s a cut-out evening gown. It’s been worn in black and white by Miley Cyrus and Ciara, respectively. One had to have worn it better… But who?
Miley cut a sophisticated figure in the black version of the evening gown as she attended the 2015 Grammy awards in February. It was a far more toned-down look for Miss Cyrus, who has been known to rock nipple pasties and not a whole lot else. Worn with her short blonde 'do slicked back and some simple jewellery, she looks great. Nice one, Miley.
The night before, Ciara wore a similar Alexandre Vauthier dress to the pre-Grammy party. This time in white, with long sleeves and a thigh-high slit, Ciara looked simply angelic.
WINNER Now, it’s so close but we think Ciara wore this one better. With her long hair let loose and those super simple white strappy heels, she just looks effortless.
Rex FeaturesTurquoise coat: Amal or Naomi?
It's a coat that's so luxurious it could make any wearer look a million dollars (or £4200 to be exact). But when worn on the gorgeous Amal Clooney and Naomi Campbell, we're left in a pickle...
When Amal stepped out in the turquoise Burberry Prorsum coat in October we swear we'd seen it before... That's right, Naomi had already worn the exact same coat in February, accessorising it with a fedora and black handbag.
WINNER: This one is really tough as both women suit it down to the ground, but if we're being picky, it has to go to Amal and the nonchalant way she ties the belt.
GettyHigh-neck evening gown: Gigi Hadid or Julianne Moore?
This Tom Ford cut-out evening gown was sure to make any wearer look like a complete screen siren. We’re getting sci-fi vibes too: that high-necked white version wouldn’t look out of place on Princess Leia in Star Wars, right? But out of Gigi Hadid and Julianne Moore: who did it more justice?
Worn to amfAR's 22nd Cinema Against AIDS Gala, Gigi Hadid wore her white version with minimal accessorising: nude strappy heels, loose hair and bronzy, natural makeup. But then who needs much else if you’re Gigi Hadid?
Taking on the dress in a whole different way, Julianne Moore chose a stunning red version when attending the 2015 BAFTA Awards in February. Complimenting her naturally auburn hair to perfection, the dress oozed Hollywood glamour. Bravo, Julianne!
WINNER: Though both women look gorgeous we’ll have to give Julianne the crown. The red version looks like it was made for her hair colour, while her accompanying beauty look is to die for.
Getty/SplashJumpsuit: Zendaya or Emily?
This Solace London jumpsuit (we know - it looks like a co-ord, right?) is fun, bouncy and youthful. Worn by Zendaya and Emily Ratajkowski it's a tough choice on who wore it best, but we'll give it a go...
Zendaya looks super stylish in the co-ord/jumpsuit hybrid, and we love her relaxed top-knot. It's an effortless look.
Now, olive green is a hard colour to pull off for anyone, so who better to attempt it than the gorgeous Em Rata? Worn to a screening of We Are Your Friends with some simple strappy heels, the actress-slash-model dazzled in the tough colour.
WINNER: They both wore with simple strappy heels which we love. The black is gorgeous, but then so is the olive green on Emily... Aghh we can't decide. Is it allowed to be a tie?
If you can make the choice, tweet us at @GlamourMagUK
GettyFringed dress: Kim or Poppy
Kim Kardashian rocked it first, then Poppy Delevingne followed suit. But who looks better in the fringed Balmain mini?
Kimmy K wore this gold version during Paris Fashion Week in Feb just after she'd bleached her hair blonde. With such a bold dress, the styling was always going to be a hard task... But did Poppy D do any better?
WINNER: We think so. Poppy's blue version was far better: the thigh-high boots, slicked-back hair and hint of leg. Perfection.
Getty ImagesEmbellished blazer-dress: Kendall or Rita?
Long-time Balmain ambassador Kendall Jenner vs. pop star Rita Ora. They both wore the same Balmain embellished blazer-dress, but who did it more justice?
Kendall wore it first to the Billboard Music Awards with slicked-back hair and over-the-knee boots. Then Rita wore it to UNIF UK's Halloween ball with fishnets and plaits...
WINNER: There's a clear winner here, and it's Kendall. The styling is much more slick. Plus Rita, weren't you meant to be scary for Halloween?!
