Well, I never:
Apparently even the Dread Pirate Roberts has a mother.

Isn’t the hat she wore all through Star Trek:The Next Generation, with some fiesta pompoms affixed with hot glue?
OMG!! This is one of the fugliest outfits that I have ever seen on this website!!! There are no words to explain just how hideous it is.
“But why is all the rum gone?”
remember when she dated ted danson?
I swear I saw this carpet at the Rose Bowl Flea…

I love the shoes!
Whoa……I am speechless!
Whoa…I am speechless! That is all I can say!
She is clearly gunning for the role of High Priestess Black Beard in the next Pirates of The Caribbean movie.
I also thought of Guinan…

I don’t actually mind the caftan… but I do think the whole ensemble would look better if the hat was a different colour. Silver, maybe?
I can’t close my bottom jaw!
omg Whoopi. whatever were you thinking? or were you thinking at all?? it looks like she let a 3 year old dress her up from a “Pirates of the Caribbean” play-clothes box:/
She looks like a character from an Agatha Christie novel. Why oh WHY won’t this woman dress better?
Don’t hate me, but… without the hat, I think she’d look fine. It’s Whoopi, folks!
I found myself wondering why Prof. McGonagal was at the Tonys, unless it was to cheer on Harry Potter and admire how successful he’s become since all of that Battle of Hogwarts stuff has been dealt with.
I always knew there were pirates on the Nile!
I actually kind of love it. Especially compared to some of the outfits Whoopi has busted out. The caftan has an interesting pattern, I like the black inserts, and the huge hat is OTT and very Whoopi-esque. Of course if I were sitting right behind her at the Tonys I might have a different opinion…
Thank you for the Princess Bride reference!
But this outfit is horrendous.
Two Words: Andre Leon Talley.
I’m so glad to read these comments and know I’m not alone in thinking, “Whoopi kept some of Guinan’s costumes after The Next Generation wrapped. Who knew?”
@Geemee … you and I were thinking the EXACT same thing! They’ve been running Hercule Poirot mysteries on Masterpiece for the last couple of weeks, and in this get up Whoopi looks exactly like Salome Otterborne from “Death on the Nile”.
First reaction: Whoopi! WTFug?? Then I was thinking she was auditioning for Harry Potter, the Musical (you know it’s coming…)
I love me some Whoopie — I wish I still had the Vogue cover of her posing with just her face showing through a cut out in the bottom of a bathtub (yeah, really). I don’t think she is even trying to dress. This is a costume and she’s messing with all of us, as usual. Maybe she’s trying for a spot on Fug Madness next year (now THAT would be an interesting).
I wonder if there is helium in that hat.
I’m with @Lynnie and @Sherri on this. My first reaction when I saw it: “Holy s**t, that’s awesome.”
Not just because it’s Whoopi — but the fact that she’s wearing it doesn’t hurt. Look at that face. The hands. She is sooooo into this right now.
That quill in her hat? I bet she can write with it.
I guess the cat is finally out of the bag.
She’s been seeing Captain Morgan for years.
I see what she’s going for — a 20s silhouette and shoes, because she’s apple-shaped. I like the Art Nouveau look of the pattern in the brocade. I dunno, I think it works because it’s Whoopi, and at the heart of it, she doesn’t give a s**t. And for what it’s worth, she didn’t wear the hat while she was sitting in the audience.
Without the hat, she’s utterly divine. The casual straw material of the hat doesn’t go with the divine gossamer fabric of the (dress and coat, no?) but would be fabulous elsewhere.
WUH????
Awww, yay! This is so perfectly event-appropriate! It’s the Tony’s! You GET to wear giant hats, strappy (if not pretty) shoes, and costumey outfits!
Insane, but it’s Whoopi, so what else would be expected? I don’t know if she was heavily involved in her costume design on Star Trek, but it would make sense in light of this outfit.
The dress and coat are beautiful ’20′s style and they suit Whoopi. The hat is where the whole outfit comes to a screeching halt.
This might have worked if she only went big on the dress OR the hat; you can’t do both. The hat should be paired with a fitted suit, or the caftan should be paired with a turban.
Minus the hat she would look perfectly fine. I like the pattern of the fabric. Bo-chic.
But Heather, what about the ROUS’s??
On anyone else this would be worth a BZUH or two, but on her it rocks. This is her look and she owns it.
I’m going out on a limb and say that she wouldn’t look too bad without that hat. I like the flapper-style frock, and can really appreciate that she’s not someone to get dolled up and wear sparkly dresses like everyone else. She has a great face and an amazing smile – she shouldn’t have to dress the clown.
“There will be no survivors.”
Here we go again. Why the hat?
Dread Pirate Roberts and after the Bryan Adams really, really, really, I mean really freakin’ really comment. I would sooo love to meet you in Los Feliz for a coffee!!!!
Omg, I also saw this and said “Guinan!” Even Guinan would have at least one set of formal robes, I’m sure.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a celeb who so consistently, deliberately, dresses completely asexually. Not masculine, not feminine, just — odd.
Also, has there ever been a satisfactory explanation for the disappearance of her eyebrows?
Next Gen is clearly on its way to Broadway … developing the show now … special effects that leave Spider Man in the space dust …starring WG as Guinan!
You should also feature Francis McDormand’s “down on the farm,” look she sported at the Tony’s!
I love Whoopi and so glad to see her again.
Oh Whoopi, never change.
Am I the only one freaked out about the fact that it looks like she’s only got one leg?
Who cares? It’s Whoopi and she is great.
Is Whoopi:
a) sportin such big brass ones she doesn’t care what we think?
b) staging the Emperor’s New Clothes, with her as the emperor?
c) in desperate need of work, in which case any publicity is good?
d) all of the above? We all know women can mulitask, why not Whoopi?
