Christian Wilkins reveals ‘ghastly’ red carpet look that still makes him cringe

World


Sydney socialite Christian Wilkins is known for his head-turning androgynous style.

But the 27-year-old didn’t always have a flair for fashion, admitting on Monday he once suffered a ‘ghastly’ wardrobe fail a decade ago.

The actor and model told the I’ve Got News for You podcast he still cringes over his red carpet debut at the 2013 ARIA Awards.

When asked if there was an outfit he particularly regretted, Christian said his first ARIAs, which he attended with his father Richard Wilkins, was especially bad.

He’d just returned from Schoolies, he said, and wore a lime green suit with pink hair and feathers through it, as well as brown shoes and a blue belt. 

‘[It was] ghastly. But I thought that I was popping,’ he said of his outfit. 

Christian admitted he often dressed himself for events at the time, so was the ‘only one to blame’ for his red carpet misfire.

‘I style myself with everything that I do; I love fashion. Part of me kind of hopes I look back at the stuff I’m wearing now and I’m like… “Oh, my God, that’s awful,”‘ he said.

He turned heads last Thursday when he stepped out in an eye-grabbing ensemble at Piper-Heidsieck’s annual cocktail party.

Christian stole the show on Rod Laver Arena Terrace in a $3,500 KOURH mini dress, which showcased his incredibly toned legs.

Held together with thin, crisscrossed straps, the frock was covered in shimmering crystals and beads.

His outfit was accessorised with sparkly silver eyeshadow as he flipped his heavy mass of soft golden curls over one shoulder.

A set of shiny black cowboy boots polished off the look while he held a red glass which appeared to be the party favour of the night.
