I must say that I found myself being quite charmed by Alexa Chung as she arrived at the Chanel Spring 2011 Couture presentation today in Paris, France.
She channeled Parisian chic wearing a Chanel Fall 2010 Couture tuxedo-inspired dress.
I adore this look without the cropped jacket. It really allows me to appreciate this look even more.
Some of you might think she looks like she’s about to wait tables, but I think she looks very elegant, yet she still managed to retain her cheeky charm.
Prada suede platform sandals and a black clutch completed her look.

this dress without the jacket makes her boobs looks really weird
Yeah, too much attention is drawn to her breasts without the jacket…maybe if she had a better support bra on it would be better.
On second glance, maybe if she put a bra on, period!
lol… the jacket wud have been a godsend for the poor girl.. and she goes ahead and decided nt to wear it
Absolutely, like they’re about to burst out, stretching the silky material. So weird.
i agree.. it doesn’t suit her bust
yep, she should have worn the jacket
Yep, sadly it was the first thing I noticed – could be cute but what is going on around her bust totally ruins it
Not a fan of Alexa Chung’s style. I like the dress better on the model, but I like Alexa’s shoes with it.
She does look like she’s waiting tables which was my first thought before I read your critique. She should have worn a jacket.
Even though I don’t like her hair, it’s a vast improvement.
I love it too; mostly because this is one of the few times Alexa doesnt look half dead.
Totally agree! her usual looks are half dead, dragged thru the festival field looks…Wow i’m quite surprised here, even if her breast wants to run away from the outfit… lol!
LOVE it. Finally she put on her mind that she must wear at least heels, not flats, with a Chanel dress. She looks extremely chic and cute
I love it! It is the first Alexa look I have ever liked… Ever
It’s kind of a naughty french maid’s outfit crossed with a waiter’s – I don’t like. And the fit on the bust is horrible.
I like it but she kinda looks like a bartender
I don’t think she looks like a waiter, but it makes her chest look completely awful! Immediately it was all I could look at – they look like they are trying to break free. Not flattering at all. Would have been much better if the vest covered her chest and fit like it did on Freja.
like it a lot better with the jacket.
Ditto, would have preferred this with the jacket on.
She looks amazing. It looks 10x better on her than the model.
Her breasts look like they are trying to escape in two different directions. Prefer with Jacket.
She looks nice. But woman needs to invest in a bra!
I agree!
A bit too costumey for me.
Lovely. This shows L’Wren Scott how to make her dowdy amish secretary clothes work with personality. She looks adorable, elegant yet quirky, pure Alexa. Should be up for BDOTW.
This is the ugliest Chanel creation I have ever seen. She makes high fashion look so mediocre.
I adore it, so cute and chic all in one! Andy she has died her Ombre hair and it looks nice and sleek. she looks lovely. (I don;t mind the look around the bust either)
i don’t know if it’s just her but this looks pretty cheap for couture..
Its incredible how ONE woman can destroy couture without even trying. Designers should BAN her from wearing their stuff. She looks lifeless, boring and stiff…and all those elements reflect on the beautiful clothing she gets…for free, according to her…
Go away Alexa, you designer garment killer!
I don’t like the dress on the model, but I really really dislike it on Alexa. Yes, she looks like she’s about to wait tables and the look is very unflattering in the chest area.
Alexa always dresses like a grandmother. I don’t get why she is considered a fashionista.
