Paula Abdul takes an 'Idol Gives Back' fashion risk!

"American Idol" judge Paula Abdul certainly chose a Wow! dress for last night's taping of the show's annual fundraiser, "Idol Gives Back."

Paula_abdul_hairHer bright red gown - by Elizabeth Emanuel - was hiked up and fastened with a rhinestone clip that matched the clips on her black pumps. It also had a long bustle in the back.

Paula piled her unmercifully teased hair high and stuck an enormous red Christmas bow on her dangling ponytail.

Poor Paula. Sweet girl. Great figure. Pretty face. Why does she OD on unnecessary accessories?

Ironically, the designer (with then-husband/partner David Emanuel) also designed Princess Diana's royal wedding gown, and has dressed the Duchess of York,  Elizabeth Taylor and Joan Collins.

But those women had the good sense not to stick a bright red bow on a ponytail.

But that's just my take. What do you think?

I don't know who her stylist is, but I find her clothes ridiculous and her hairstyle too on every single episode of Idol.

Your comment was right on the mark. It takes very good fashion sense to know when to 'stop adding'.
