Coco just always manages to look like she's having a good time with a theme. I can't pretend I get it, and I might be a little frightened of it in a Silence of the Lambs poster/Tawny Kitaen/Cankletown boot vendor kind of way, but her working the hell out of it is making me so happy.
I mean... it's BETTER, but is she getting married in it or what? Unless this is some kind of ode to the popular union of crazy-haired rockers to lovely models, I'm out.
I mean, I suppose this is Vivienne Westwood's exact niche outside of Helena Bonham Carter's closet, so I will shelve all the things I would say about this if she wore it anyplace else.
... you know what, it's insane, and it's the Velveeta Cheesy Skillet dude's S&M chamber dream, but it's also fairly imaginative for the theme so let's just go with it and high-five her.
I almost don't recognize her anymore on first viewing, but I have to say, I mostly like this. The high-fashion flea collar around her knees isn't ideal for me, but the dress itself is neat, and I say that fully aware that it appears to be 5 percent tube top.
Whereas THIS dress is about 40 percent tube top and I am way less interested in it.
Love. SO pretty. Unless I'm just being seduced by the sparkles, although I am open to that seduction.
Ill-fitting granny booty shorts boudoir nightmare word vomit.
Seriously, MAYBE this is punk, but I just look at it and think it's like if Michael Jackson from the '80s mated with the curtain in a fortune-teller's lobby.
OVER IT. Also, is this really what Tom Ford felt like showcasing on this night? Something that's both stale AND a weak echo of things everyone else has already worn a million times? AND CAN WE NOT WITH THE OMBRE HAIR? This post has been brought to you by sleep deprivation.
... I guess vests are coming back?
This SEEMS like it might be really beautiful, but me stressing out over people's low-rider strapless dresses is ALSO a trend I'd like to see go away.
I have no idea if she's a model, but she HAS modeled, and she's the daughter of a model (Isabella Rosselini), so... whatever. This is the exact color scheme of Coco Rocha's Liz Taylor pantsuit from last year, and is another dress I feel had its place back then instead of today. I appreciate the attempt at something big and eye-catching, but it's like Prabal accidentally picked up last year's invitation without checking the date.
This is actually borrowed from the 2033 Met Ball, which will be an ode to Coachella.
And this is borrowed from a weird Fleetwood Mac tribute where Stevie Nicks sings every song in Baz Luhrmann's Gatsby remake.
I would have guessed this was Burberry, because it looks like a cousin to Anne Hathaway's awesome BAFTAs gown. I LOVE IT.
I have severe doutzens about what this is doing in the area of her kroes.
It's... SWINTON-lite.
Zzz. She is very pretty, and she's got consecutive SI swimsuit covers, but somehow I feel like -- in Mean Girls speak -- fetch just isn't happening here.
