This could be worse. I think, as with most Chanel, it would work better if she took one piece of it and then paired it with something very simple. In this case, the pants, but with a basic blouse (and therefore probably not for this event). I don't love the zipper in the front, though.

with Van Hunt

Halle brought her man friend, a singer-songwriter named Van Hunt whom she's been with since Covid times. She looks very happy.

Gorgeous.

This dress clearly had to be very simple, because it could not compete with the Chopard. The necklace needed to pop. And pop it does. (I'd have slicked her hair back, too.)

But I mean... damn.

Womp-womp. Great jacket, but those are culottes, and... well, let's rescue the jacket.

I laughed delightedly at the green and purple. This is the kookiest thing she's worn and I enjoy it, and did NOT expect it.

Maybe I SHOULD have seen it coming, because she reversed the combo at this. That is the second pair of unwelcome pants she's sported (the other being the opening ceremony). There had to be a better way to finish both those outfits.

Possibly a THIRD pair of unwelcome pants?!? Except the only issue with these is being a tad too long. They needed to up the glamour on her head, though. It's all TOO undone.

And THEN she went full Matrix Prom.

Jeremy's monochrome commitment progressed to mint. His wife looks great!

He even found green-rimmed specs.

This looks like his formal smoking outfit for when he's having a cigar on the lanai.

This is coming down on the right side of clownish, but it was close.

I DO like the silver, but for once I actually think the necklace is overkill and that it didn't need one.

Leila Slimani and Alba Rohrwacher

Excellent all around.

This works for me, too. Even Alba's giant bow. It has personality.

Except I suppose this has personality, too, but just... not one I necessarily want to embrace. But I would take it ten times over the next slide.
