I wrestle a little with whether that grey is the nicest combination with the beautiful dark red. But I'm glad of a lively pattern, and the cut of the dress is really appealing in an almost retro-romantic way. It makes me think of Anna and the King twirling across the ballroom, or Belle dancing with the Beast, or... well, sadly those are examples of controlling dudes whose eventual hearts of gold don't entirely justify their jerkitude, but you feel me. It's a proper ball gown, in which to be swept away.

She looks so tall in it, too, and she's a very petite person.

This photo makes it look very light, and as if it moves well. I hope she spun around in it for SOMEBODY.

I am not in love with the head styling. I still think she gets lost a bit as a platinum blonde, and would love to have seen this with her dark hair and a deep lip, but I suppose the needs of the Mother of Dragons come first.
