True, Minnie Driver and Hillary Swank look like they're attending an Egyptian-themed costume party, but that's no reason not to step back and give an objective review of their chosen gowns anyway.
We absolutely love the turquoise on Minnie Driver and we love the detail, but we worry it's just a bit costumey for us. Otherwise, we love it. She looks beautiful and the dress is incredibly flattering on her. So, we say she's IN.
Hillary Swank, on the other hand, looks like she's wearing shiny bandages. We think the bottom is pretty, but the top just doesn't work for us. It bunches in an unflattering way and her hair distracts from the neckline, which even if we don't like the way it bunches, seems to be the focal point of the dress. We also think this particular metallic is washing her out. For us, Ms. Swank is OUT.
I think Hillary's dress is way too long. That is a lot of metallic fabric! I can't really see anyone but a living statue being able to work that dress very successfully. In fact, I think that I have seen a living statute in that dress.
ReplyDeleteIf it were shorter and maybe if the skirt had some flair? Even then, probably too young looking for her unless she a retro-future like styling.
Cleopatra and the mummy. Absolutely hilarious.
ReplyDeleteI think Minnie's dress would look fabulous on Zoe Saldana. I actually kind of like Hilary's dress, it's got that old Hollywood glamor to it. I just don't like it on her.
ReplyDeleteThe neckline on Hilary's dress is so high that I don't know how someone could keep themselves from tugging and clawing at it the whole time. She looks beautiful, and yet, all the shiny shiny drapey drapey body morphing that dress causes...has to be an OUT.
ReplyDeleteMinnie is gorgeous...from the neck down. Fabulous color, and the crossed straps are integral to that Grecian style of dress. But ohhhh, that hair, it is one of the worst styles I've ever seen on anyone, let alone Red Carpet. It looks fried and then teased and then chopped off. It ruins the whole look for me. On the fence.
