Absolutely gorgeous.
Jessica Alba became one of the front runners for BDOTW yesterday night at the LA Premiere for “Machete”.
With shoulders that sharp this look is of course by Balmain.
I know many of you are o.v.e.r this type of bold shouldered look, but I love Jessica’s black and gold sequined zigzag patterned mini dress.
Her show-stopping figure-hugging dress was paired with Christian Louboutin Tinazata 120 cut-out boots.
She kept accessories minimal with a few bangles and her hair was styled in loose sexy waves.
Do you agree that Jess is a BDOTW contender?

totally! she is most definately a BDOTW contender!
absolute perfection. I can make an exception for being O.V.E.R. Balmain when she looks this good. defo for BDOTW!
From a technical point of view – there is nothing I can fault about this look. The hair and make-up work, the dress fits superbly, the shoes are nice, she didn’t over-accessorize … it just works.
Too bad she is so bland. She has this perfect face but there is nothing interesting about it.
Nonetheless, as I said, the look works and she’s is most likely going to be my pick for BDotW.
I know exactly what you mean. Everything is perfect from her hair to her heels but she just lacks that personalty and that appeal.
Her co-star Kate Hudson has plenty of that and thats evident when she is on the red carpet
sorry. I am completely over Balmain and this sort of dress, so it’s not BDOTW in my opinion, not at all.
Great look.
Even though balmain is so over worn, I definitely still love this outfit on her. Especially seeing as she is a mother! :O some girls have all the luck..
I’m tired of this look. The bold shoulders, sparkly mini-dress and booties has been done to death. She looks good but we’ve seen this look too many times on other celebs.
I don’t like this look. Never liked it. People go crazy over Balmain, but I just don’t get it, and I also don’t get the frenzy over Jessica,
i’m tired of this look, but she looks so amazing!!! I loved!!!
GORGEOUS! Jessica is one of the rare who can look sexy in Balmain w/o implying vulgarity. So perfect! I’ve been defending Balmain all along. I think its reputation is being tarnished by trashy celebrities, while the truly stylish ones stay away from this risky choice.
wonderful!!!! I love this dress on her and sorry, she’s GORGEOUS. BDOTW for me.
She always looks great but I have to agree I’m sooo over this look
i’m quickly growing tired of the padded/pointy shoulder looks, but she does look fabulous.
Amazing!!
Definitely BDOTW!
gorgeus,def BDOTW
I may be outdated, but I am so not o.v.e.r. these shoulders yet. Besides she just looks perfect and classy so surely a BDOTW contender.
love it!
PERFECT, BDOTW for sure!
I love the dress, the shoes, and the styling. However, I don’t like it on Jessica. She’s too cutesy in my opinion for this type of dress.
I don’t like her, and I don’t like this balmain collection (tacky!), but I have to admit that she looks great. Perfectly styled, and she’s even smiling.
YES – she looks great and amazingly makes this dress look fresh. The colours are perfect for her.
I love when J. Alba does edgy!
I somehow dont like it.. i really like the dress n the shoes but not on Jessica.. i think she lacks the attitude this dress needs…
BDOTW~.
SHe looks so nice… and so effortlessly chic.
Definite BDOTW.
Oh my God, this dress is awesome! Love the way she wore it. Also, her hair is really beautiful.
perfection.
BDOTW, the shoes are perfect too
YES! I have never seen her look this AMAZING, everything works- the style, the colours, the make-up. Wow!
SOLID GOLD. this wasn’t even on runway, was it?
No it wasn’t a runway dress
I would’ve liked to see her in one of the beautiful brocade pantsuits from the fall collection, I could see her looking amazingly good in one of those. This, while looking good, just isn’t particularly interesting of her, as we’ve all seen it before on so many different people.
