Welcome to the Diva Dirt Style Jury! No more are the separate ‘Best’ and ‘Worst’ lists, instead we have come up with a scientific approach *cough* to compiling our weekly fashion column. The Diva Dirt team will weigh in on the different looks from the week gone by & mark each look with a score out of ten. The look with the highest average score will be our best look and the look with the lowest average score will be the worst look. Click each photo to see the look in full size.
Let the proverbial runway show begin!
ALICIA FOX
Erin: Very sexy and sleek. With those super-high boots she looks badass without looking like she just auditioned for a biker gang. This is a “heel” look if I ever saw one.. 9/10
Melanie: I really like this look, it’s cute and simple. Only a girl with a figure like Alicia could pull off those boots too! 8/10
Steven: Something about the black-on-black look on Alicia does it for me. Looks casual without looking like she’s going club-hopping. 8/10
Tiffany: Alicia looked really good sitting at ringside, as most Divas attempt to. I like that she went simple with the look, which is refreshing. I’m just a bit perplexed by those boots – they go up impossibly high! 9/10
BETH PHOENIX
Erin: The cape is a nice dramatic touch, but she should have put another color in the suit to break up all the red. The gold phoenix is a cool accent, though. 7/10
Melanie: I love the design but honestly, I’m not a huge fan of the colour. It just seems so bright for a dark, broody Glamazon. 8/10
Steven: A little too bright and shiny for my taste, but it works on Beth. Don’t know why, but I like cape thingy she has going on. 7/10
Tiffany: Beth’s new outfit looks much better on paper than it did on broadcast. All that red… it was all a little too bright for me. I’d like to see some darker hues to balance off that red. 7/10
EVE TORRES
Erin: The bottom half looks good, if plain, but the top is kinda strange. It looks like she found a bunch of lime green ribbon and went to town on it. Not a good look unless she’s planning to audition for DX. 5/10
Melanie: The bottom half looks good but Eve’s vest tops are getting really old. 5/10
Steven: Nothing spectacular here. That top looks like something out of The Beautiful People’s closet, and that’s not a compliment. 6/10
Tiffany: Let’s look on the bright side. If teaming up with Cryme Tyme doesn’t work out… at least she’s a shoe-in for D-Generation X. 5/10
LILIAN GARCIA
Erin: If Lilian had a signature look, it’d be a “New Years Eve” theme–always sparkly and flashy and party-ish but still on the demure side. This is the epitome of that, because she literally looks like a disco ball. That’s not meant to be an insult–I really like it. It helps that the rest of the look is colored simply in black. 8/10
Melanie: Not a huge fan of the dress. I guess short dresses & high boots have been Lilian’s trademark for the past 10 years so it makes sense. 4/10
Steven: Lilian, you could have done better for your last night. Reminds me of a disco ball… Me likey the boots though. 5/10
Tiffany: To compliment our last memory of her, Lilian chose wisely. The flash and the flare and the shooting star-like presentation are all very reminiscent of her WWE career. 8/10
Read on for more of this week’s outfits and to see who’s been branded our winner and loser.
MARIA
Erin: It’s the usual Maria clashing of fashion motives–lace or feathers or zebra print? Sometimes going for broke turns out surprisingly well for her, but not this time. 4/10
Melanie: This was surprisingly toned down for Maria, but it’s no secret that I hate mismatched outfits. 3/10
Steven: Tame compared to some of the crap I’ve seen her wearing. Could do without the feathers and green tiger print. 7/10
Tiffany: Eh, nothing new from Maria. Except this time, it looks like she might’ve splurged on a Victoria Secret’s 10 Million Dollar Fantasy Bra. 6/10
MICHELLE MCCOOL
Erin: Purple is a pretty iffy color for me–it can easily look bad if it’s not the right shade. Here, I like it. It’s punchy and shiny and works well against her complexion. I’d tell her to ease up on the multitude of crosses but I don’t think it’d make much of a difference, to be honest. I like it enough as it is. 8/10
Melanie: Same design, new colour [I think]. I love this shade on Michelle, it just sparkles on her. 6/10
Steven: Not much different than what she’s usually wearing. I’m loving that color on her. 7/10
Tiffany: It’s her typical ring attire, but think Michelle looks rather stunning. I really like the color blue/purple on her. The hair’s looking really good, too. 8/10
SARITAYLOR
Erin: This is another example of purple done well. I may not be smitten with the exact designs of the outfits, but if I have to see the same color twice, at least it’s a good one. 7/10
Melanie: Similar to Michelle, again love the colour and it really pops on screen. I think I prefer Taylor’s to Michelle’s too. 7/10
Steven: Nice to see the new champs make the effort to match each other. That said, Sarita‘s current attire is and always will be fugly. 6/10
Tiffany: Last time, I pleaded with Taylor to “share the wealth” with her tag team partner. Oh dear, but not in this way! I suppose the basic formula to any successful tag team is to match. That doesn’t mean I can approve the crotch tights. Taylor looks presentable, and Sarita’s look still needs work. Quite frankly, they cancel each other out. 5/10
SAVANNAH
Erin: It’s hard to give a full assessment of an outfit when you only see it from the waste up, but from what I can see, I like it. The blue color is gorgeous and the sparkly accents are cute too. 7/10
Melanie: This was pretty simple and cute, I like. 6/10
Steven: My jaw dropped when I saw Savannah last Tuesday. The hair, makeup and dress all looked great on her. Well done. 9/10
Tiffany: I haven’t had any complaints with Savannah’s look so far. She keeps it very simple and elegant, which is admirable and very appropriate for backstage wear. I just hope she keeps it up. 9/10
THE BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE
Erin: I’m convinced they dress bad on purpose, because there’s no way they can possibly think this looks good. Fishnets, polka dots, and a pukey pink color? Are you going down a list of my least favorite fashion elements? 2/10
Melanie: They’re never going to get it right, are they? I hope Lacey Von Erich, who I think has a classier look, gives them a makeover. 2/10
Steven: Good to see Velvet and Madison looking like a team after losing their Queen Bee. Sure, it’s still trashy but The Beautiful People are always going to look trashy. 7/10
Tiffany: Watching them prance around in their attire just made me “home sick” for Angelina Love. As far as the clothes go… I can see why Velvet and Angelina hardly ever attempted the matching thing. 6/10
So, how did the girls score? Let’s put our scores through our highly scientific “Ensemble Classification Calculationomagraphier”® and see who we’ve deemed this week’s winner and loser. The following is in ascending order by their calculated score:

Beth Phoenix: 29/40

LOSER: THE BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE. Angelina’s absence didn’t lessen the fug.. Perhaps it even amplified it!
WINNER: ALICIA FOX. She’s such a Foxy lady, even the Hendrix song couldn’t do her justice.
