Honestly, I would have pegged this as Gucci; it reminded me of several of their things. But no. It's the Mulleavy sisters. It DOES feel very right for Nicole Kidman, but at the same time, it's a bit like a clown with big aspirations designed it.

Elle IS in Gucci, and here it seems like the perfect sort of Gentle Woodland Nymph vibe for her...

... until she turns slightly sideways and you see that she's REALLY all-in on the sideboob...

... and then at the bottom, we have the giant blossoms, giving this the air of a lonely flower shop owner having conjured himself a girlfriend from a potion and one of his potted plants. The original has a disco bodystocking that pulls over the head, so I guess we should be relieved Elle left that part at home?

Sometimes I find myself on board with it, and sometimes I just think it looks like a totally absurd parade costume.

"LOCK THOSE UP TIGHT, ELLE."

But: Totally appropriate mother/daughter casting, no?

It was hot as balls today in Los Angeles, to put it mildly, so this looked like a very breezy thing indeed to have on one's body. Well, except for the long sleeves. I am not surprised Elle is in favor of caftan-style maxis, and would be even less surprised to learn she wears them as nightgowns too.

A reminder that she IS only 19.

I don't even know what she was wearing this for -- dinner? A movie? A party? -- and so it kind of colors my reaction. If she's just popping out for bite, sure, why not? Who cares that it's boring.

John Cameron Mitchell directed this movie (based on something by Neil Gaiman), and this almost seems like something he'd pick out for her.

I thought you'd be amused to know that JCM didn't change from photocall to premiere. It's oddly refreshing. One day, one outfit. IMAGINE THAT.
