My feelings, like my cocktail, are mixed. I ADORE this color, but the bodice looks like it sprang fully-formed from May Company's 1984's lingerie collection, and a center part does her no favors (which, dude, I can't wear a center part either). She legitimately looks like she's in a mid-80s nighttime soap. Although now I wish that would happen.
I actually really like this, but for the part where the tulle across the top makes her breasts look like they have a windshield.
Simple, but effective.
This is actually pretty great on Dame Helen. That color sings on her, and the cut is really flattering while also being totally appropriate and kind of understated. She's the best.
Speaking of the best, while I am really not a fan of Olivia Wilde, she looks tremendous in this. It's somewhat serpentine, but in that sexy Slytherin way.
