2012 BET Awards: Best and worst dressed on the red carpet

Kim Kardashian, of all people, proved to be perhaps the best dressed at Sunday night's 2012 BET Awards. Kardashian isn't a bad dresser, but when the reality show star outshines red carpet all-stars like Beyonce, Kerry Washington and Taraji P. Henson, something is amiss.
Kardashian wore a white second-skin long-sleeved cocktail dress, all business in front but draped low in the rear, the back edged in gold zippers, with matching gold stilettos -- simple, sexy but edgy. Beau Kanye West also wore all white, and they made a striking pair. Beyonce, however, wore a one-sleeved Stephane Rolland gown in a too-shiny golden yellow with a clunky gold metal belt. The gown was slit up one side, with an embarrassment of fabric on the other -- so much so that Beyonce didn't seem to know what to do with when she went on stage to accept the award for best female R&B artist.
Washington, who almost always strikes a pose of old Hollywood glamour, stumbled in an ill-fitting nude bustier -- it actually looked like a foundation garment, and not in a fabulous way -- and too-short black skirt cinched with a weird belt. Henson wore a too-bright turquoise minidress overlaid at the top and bottom with tiny metal honeycomb -- it was an interesting look, but it didn't suit her at all. Regina King also gets dinged for pairing a serviceable silver strapless top with ugly-as-sin wide-legged turquoise pants in, heaven help me, chiffon.
And in other breaking news, Mariah Carey wore a dress that was two sizes too small.
