Speaking of Cartier, I think she could have used some emeralds to lend this a little zing of color. (Although she IS dripping in diamonds.)

This is delicate and pretty and would make a beautiful wedding gown. I'm not mad at it.

She had a tendency to go for very BIG looks and this is sleek and chic and sexy and excellent on her.

Whereas she wears Armani a lot in the course of any given year and therefore this feels on brand.

And she is, for some reason, REALLY all on on D&G. Sigh. I'm tired. This is objectively good on her, though.

This is interestingly architectural and I'm surprised we didn't see this at Cannes. (I wonder how many people didn't make it to Cannes and are going to make Venice their Cannes.)

This is NOT very Cannes-y -- Cannes is generally more naked than Venice -- and it's surprisingly sweet on her.

Sure! Although I don't love the floofy fringe there in the middle of the bodice.

This is excellent on her and yet again I wonder how someone named "Barbara Palvin" isn't a movie star in 1964.

The back is interesting and, again, sort of sweet. Are we all going to be sweet in the upcoming months? (I mean....signs point to no but I hold a good thought.)

She, on the other hand, looks like she's got to go back to the castle and cast some spells and I am DEFINITELY here for THAT.

Shades of the nicest saloon in the west...but not in a bad way.

I assume this is Armani and it would also make great wrapping paper if they're looking to branch out.
