Bear with me, but I actually think this is neat.

The tiered shape looks good on her, and the texture and sparkle is really pretty. Okay, it's also a bit apron-like -- there's a drizzle of sideboob -- but you are talking to someone who wouldn't get mad if a sparkly apron were hanging in her own kitchen (impractical though that may be). And a drizzle of sideboob is at least so much better than a smothering. Of all Rooney's wacky "directional" explosions of high-fashion experimentation, this to me is effective rather than eek.
