Prepare your eyeballs.

Ah, Bachelor season. A glorious time where one never has to question what to watch on television.

A time when office sweep stakes give rise for lengthy episode rundowns with co-workers as a dead set priority.

A time when popcorn, Maltesers and a hearty dose of wine is absolutely acceptable on a Wednesday night (actually, it should be acceptable on any night TBH).

When you think about it, is there anything not to love about this time of year?

Well, now that you mention it, there is one small snag that our eyeballs are painfully subjected to year after year, and it’s not for the faint-hearted.

Yep, those wild, risqué and ever-questionable outfits. And boy, have we already got some whoppers this year.

This season, Matt Agnew met a multitude of ladies who were keen as beans to steal his heart.

But there’s another thing aside from Matt’s biceps that we just can’t take our minds off, and it’s all to do with the wardrobe department.

We’ve already got questionable cut-outs, sheer schmozzles and even a real-life dancing woman emoji.

All we can say is thank the sweet stars for at least some saving graces in the mix.

That being said, don’t expect Oscar de la Renta folks – keep scrolling as we round up all the fashion hits and misses from The Bachelor 2019.

Abbie

Chelsie looked stunning during the finale in this pale pink and gold slip dress.

Abbie

Abbie’s sexy halter-beck dress showed off her gorgeous figure during the finale episode.

Helena

She might have been sent home, but Helena went home in style in this on-trend lilac satin slip dress.

Chelsie

Chelsie showed off her lean physique in this strapless white sparkly frock.

Abbie

This is too cute! Abbie nabbed herself a place in the finale in this pretty red taffeta dress with bow straps, thought we do think she could have used a last-minute trip to the tailor for a little nip-and-tuck around the torso.

(Network Ten)

Four girls were left, and Chelsie made sure she stood out in this cocktail on-top, party down the bottom creation – yep, those are pants!

(Network Ten)

Helena might have had her doubts, but there’s one thing for sure – this gorgeous satin dress is a winner!

(Network Ten)

We sadly said goodbye to Emma, but she made sure she went out with a bang in this, well bangin’ creation.

(Network Ten)

Abbie proved once again she can nail cocktail chic, but is the icy colour a reflection of the reaction she’s managed to garner from a lot girls in the mansion?

(Network Ten)

With five contestants remaining, the stakes were high – but for Helena it was NBD. She absolutely owned this silver sparkly number.

(Network Ten)

Chelsie’s fitted black creation featured a slightly er, unique neckline? She pulls it off regardless!

(Network Ten)

Whether you’re team Abbie or not, the blonde siren looked stunning in this sea-blue frock.

(Network Ten)

The ever stunning Elly opted for a similar style to Abbie in this Grecian style number – she certainly went out with a bang!

(Network Ten)

Emma’s strapless design was all-class, and how stunning are those earrings!

(Image: Network Ten)

Chelsie

We are loving this old Hollywood look of Chelsie’s. The off-the-shoulder burgundy gown looked simply gorgeous.

(Image: Network Ten)

Kristen

For her last cocktail party, Kristen wore a bright red two-piece top and pants ensemble that we reckon few could pull off.

(Image: Network Ten)

Elly

Elly’s simple black dress was chic and sophisticated but her blue earrings and unique bangle could be our favourite Bach accessories to date.

(Image: Network Ten)

Abbie

Her antics may not be considered pure, but Abbie looks heavenly in this floor-length white dress with a bold red lip and statement earrings.

(Image: Network Ten)

Sogand

It may have been her last night at the mansion, but Sogand gave us disco fever with this cocktail dress.

(Image: Network Ten)

Elly

Elly’s teal slip dress is simple perfection. And that up-do just makes it even more stunning.

(Image: Network Ten)

Helena

We’re not sure how to feel about the criss-cross lace up at the back of Helena’s midnight blue gown.

(Image Network Ten)

Kristen

Umm is this embroidered black gown of Kristen’s a subtle reference to a love of China?

(Network Ten)

Mary

When it’s your last night, you’ve got to bring the sparkles! Mary literally glittered at her final cocktail and she most definitely will be missed.

(Network Ten)

Emma

It’s as if the emoji has come to life! Emma’s blending in with the roses in this stunning red gown.

(Network Ten)

Chelsie

We’re bending and snapping for this Legally Blonde look Chelsie rocked. Pink most definitely is her colour!

(Network Ten)

Nichole

It may not have worked out for Nichole and Matt but she sure went out in style in this daring black number.

(Network Ten)

Episode nine was a corker, what with that Rachael scandal and a shock double elimination, but TBH, Chelsie’s slinky sparkly green dress outdid it all. She is rocking it.

(Network Ten)

All things glittery must have been the theme last night, because Helena’s high-neck multi-coloured sequin creation was also a knockout.

(Network Ten)

Kristen’s bardot dress was the perfect mix of glamorous and chic.

(Network Ten)

Mary has proved time and time again that she’s a pro when it comes to cocktail attire – love this white look!

(Network Ten)

We’re… confused. Abbie’s look is unexpectedly modest, until you notice how low that strategically placed keyhole goes. Interesting choice…

(Network Ten)

Bombshell Chelsie looked flawless in episode eight wearing this stunning Karen Hurley dress. No wonder she’s a crowd favourite to go the whole way!

(Network Ten)

Abbie’s maroon off-shoulder velvet creation was also clear stand-out. Whether she’s here for the “right reasons” or not, the gal knows how to rock a frock.

(Network Ten)

Mary’s high-neck Elle Zeitoune dress was the perfect shade of pink, and let’s talk about that Angelina Jolie-esque split!

(Network Ten)

Helena’s ravishing red two-piece look by Gemeli Power might have foreshadowed what was to come – her matching bright red lipstick ended up all over Matt’s face…!

(Network Ten)

Nicole was pretty in pink in this Grace and Hart dress. She really knows how to nail the pastels!

(Network Ten)

Episode seven’s live rose ceremony came as a surprise, but the cocktail party didn’t fail to provide us with the fashion goods. We love Elly’s ASOS dress featuring a stunning embroidered bodice.

(Network Ten)

Whether you think she’s in it for the right reasons or not, you can’t deny Abbie’s Bronx and Banco puff-sleeve dress was absolutely stunning – that print!

(Network Ten)

And Nichole’s single spaghetti strap gown by Meshki could have gone down the disastrous Year 10 formal route, but the bombshell blonde pulled it off flawlessly – we love it!

(Network Ten)

Emma got the single date, a kiss, and nailed her dress choice – talk about a trifecta! We’re big fans of her fitted and printed Bronx and Banco look.

(Network Ten)

Talk about making a statement! Fan favourite Chelsie opted for a bright pink ensemble from Sheike – a power suit like no other!

(Network Ten)

In episode six, Sogand’s light pink Jonte creation looks stunning on the Persian siren.

(Network Ten)

She mightn’t have got a rose in the end, but Vakoo’s flawless sense of style will always be a winner in our eyes. We love this J’Adore gown!

(Network Ten)

Mary’s pink feathred J’Adore dress is definitely daring, but she pulls it off like a (very chic) pro.

(Network Ten)

Turbulent doesn’t even begin to describe Monique’s experience at her final cocktail party, but being sent packing or not, she looked amazing in this Bronx and Banco jumpsuit.

(Network Ten)

Beautiful Helena looks heavenly in this Amy Taylor dress – love the colour!

(Network Ten)

Our favourite look from episode five has to be Cassandra’s chic moss green halter dress from Boohoo. True to form, she accessorised her look with her own self titled jewellery label.

(Network Ten)

And how gorgeous is Elly’s cross-over sequined dress worn for the cocktail party? This one’s a Winona design.

(Network Ten)

Mary looked drop dead stunning in this Alamour dress – these gals can pull off sequins like pros!

(Network Ten)

Abbie (and her outfit!) brought all the drama in episode five, with that bold tell-tale moment. Her black two-piece is from Klovia.

(Network Ten)

Jess – Episode 2

This sequin extravaganza worn by Jess in episode two is a little much on the eyes. That being said, the gown is Portia and Scarlett if you’re daring enough to try it.

(Network Ten)

Tara – Episode 2

This is nice! We’re here for this pretty pink dress worn by Tara. It’s a Tania Olsen Designs creation, FYI.

(Network Ten)

Danush – Episode 2

Who knew the dancing lady emoji could provide such fashun inspo… wonder if she features on Danush’s most used emoji list?

(Network Ten)

Nichole – Episode 2

Nichole is ROCKING this stunning black Micaah dress for the second cocktail party!

(Network Ten)

Mary – Episdoe 2

Mother-of-one Mary looks every bit the goddess in this Amy Taylor dress.

(Network Ten)

Nichole – Episode 1

The cut-out trend is like an ex-boyfriend – it’s there, but you kind of want to forget about its existence … Nichole is a trooper for pulling off this Amy Taylor gown.

(Network Ten)

Georgie – Episode 1

And we know the whole sheer thing is, well, a thing, but for a fancy-ish cocktail party, we’re not too sure how we feel. In any case, Georgie’s definitely got the amazing figure to rock it regardless.

(Network Ten)

Renee – Episode 1

We applaud Renee’s bravery for wearing this Kimmy-K-esque sheer Klovia gown. Props for managing to pull a solid Angelina Jolie leg too.

(Network Ten)

Vakoo – Episode 1

You won’t miss Vakoo in this bright Reign creation. We’re actually kinda here for it, girl looks good!

(Network Ten)

Mary – Episode 1

Again with the rando cut outs. Mary kinda makes it work though! This one’s a Judy Copley creation.

(Network Ten)

Helena – Episode 1

Okay, so the random slits make Helena’s Casandra Renee dress look like it has scarce, yet giant tassles as a skirt. But it is kinda nice all things considered. We sense a long-hauler here!

(Network Ten)

Keely – Episode 1

Is it supposed to be snakeskin? Foil? Birthday wrapping paper? We’re not sure, but Keely’s Alamour gown isn’t doing it for us. She’s an undeniable stunner though!

Rachael – Episode 2

Holy brightness, Batman! Rachael was pretty in pink in this Bronx and Banco dress with killer House of Emmanuele jewellery.

(Network Ten)

Abbie – Episode 2

We love this “rock chic” look Abbie is rocking! The Kianna top and pants set looks killer with Fairley choker.

(Network Ten)

Chelsie – Episode 2

How does Chelsie make this Amy Taylor teal dress look so sexy, yet so sweet at the same time?
