The iconic green tropical-print gown was an homage to the dress Lopez wore to the 2000 Grammy Awards. Banks' version was slightly less revealing, though it still featured a low neckline and a bold print that was hard to miss.

Some viewers said the daring dress looked like something out of "Jurassic Park" or bowtie pasta.
"I knew I wanted [the silhouette] to be that way, and I knew Tyra wanted it to be that way," Banks' stylist Eric Archibald told Page Six.
