I think this dumbfounded expression on Natalie's face is because she just realized she totally forgot to put on all lipstick. (Here's this dress on the runway, by the way. We suggested it for a mildly older Kiernan Shipka.)
I actually REALLY like this. It's so summer-y on her -- it was muggy in Los Angeles yesterday -- and it's bare without being tacky.
She is so striking and this is SO glam.
See what I mean about Valentine's Day? Maybe she doesn't hate it after all. I don't love those shoes, but she's young, so why not be whimsical? And this dress is good on her. I even like the asymmetrical hem.
I don't dislike this dress -- I think it's elegant, and I like the little Butt Cape --but it feels perhaps a little MATURE for her? I kind of want to stick it on Jessica Lange and watch her vamp in it.
Dapper!
