Vanessa Kirby hit the red carpet for the first time this awards season for the 2021 Oscars, after serving up a series of looks virtually from London.
My first reaction to seeing the actress in this custom Gucci pink gown was, “why am I not gasping for air?”
Because that’s my usual feeling when seeing Vanessa this award season.
Even at this point when I’m typing, I’m trying to find one thing that I love about the gown, but I failed.
It has nothing to do with the colour which is pretty, or the contrasting black cherry lip, as I love the contrast.
It’s the design itself. Mostly from the exposed midriff up, as the bodice kills the look for me.
The pulls are off putting. The bodice looks really stiff, as it has no real defined structure to it at all, plus it lacks finesse so I don’t find it flattering.
It’s a disappointing no from me.
