Venus Williams in custom Elie Saab
I think she looks really good -- even if there was a later failure of wrangling.
Judi Dench
She just seems comforting and simple and a tiny bit like she would have been a wonderful Mother Superior somewhere. She for SURE would have gently solved a problem like Maria.
Caitriona Balfe in Louis Vuitton
This is a thud for me. The top doesn't seem well-made, and the ruffle reminds me of my duvet, which is top of mind because I just changed out the cover and so I was staring at it. Her head remains a marvel, and the only thing I can think here is that Caitriona is at a point post-partum where her body is probably changing unpredictably, so maybe that explains the fit. The design, though... that one is a mystery we will never solve.
Wanda Sykes
Wanda sported this just long enough to walk the carpet before heading inside to host, and it's all well and good and fine...
... and her wife Alex looks wonderful...
... but then she changed into something almost identical, but more complicated? I honestly preferred the other one. We don't need the shoulder cape and the bra situation, Wanda! (Regina Hall here ALSO is in a new outfit, and remember when I said I was glad she changed out of the brown? I might take that back. SPIRITUALLY I was glad, but in reality this was not an upgrade.
