   I actually consider the modification to be pretty darn decent. Especially if we compare Selita to the runway girl. I am guessing it’s more of a flat-chested-girl dress.
   Still, the shoes and what the dress does for the rest of the body (I think this is mostly due to the difference in height and knowing how to pose) push this heavily in Selita’s favour.

   really fashioncritic? i thought for sure you wouldve gone for LeToya since selita’s boob basically takes away from the focus of the dress…
   hmm eitehr way i prefer the runway version but this is such a great dress!

   Balmain is meant to be sexy.

   hmm in my opinion selita crosses the line from sexy to trashy in this but each to their own!

   fc is right here. beside i don´t understand the modification since she doesn´t have big boobs that could spill out of the dress…

   I would pick runway, but that’s not an option.

   I think Selita looked trashy here. Her boobs look like they want out. The other girl wins by default.

   What’s the big deal with modifying it? The dress is already short enough to show off their legs. And Selita looks with half her boob sticking out like that.

   I prefer the dress with less cleavage…particularly less fake cleavage. But that’s just me.

   I hate the modification but Selita’s boob takes away from the dress too. I choose the runway version.

   FC, Good choice. I loved this dress on Selita- she wore it better than it was modeled, first and before the Balmain boom. It’s one of my top 10 of the year.

    I usually agree with your choices but I don’t get the hate levelled at LaToya for this. I think the mod was pretty decent, and I’m gonna stand in the minority and say I actually kinda LOVE her shoes. The strappy sandals sported by Selita just intensify the trashiness - I feel that the clunkiness of LaToya’s platforms, along with the silver colour to complement the accents of the dress, make the look more edgy. I think she looks pretty damn stunning.

    I have to agree with Kaya. Selita looks like a tramp.

    It makes LeToya’s upper halg/shoulders look more wide and broad .. when she isn’t wide at all.

    Have you seen that Cheryl Cole is wearing this dress in her new video? Quite an action-packed video for what is quite a weak song…
