Would You Wear This?

Ginnifer Goodwin showed up to the Genesis Awards in Beverly Hills wearing this crimson lace Valentino dress. To be honest, I have some mixed feelings about this look. To start off, I really do love the color of this dress on her. She really stands out in the crowd in this bold color. And the length of this dress is makes her legs look like they go on for miles.


But there are two things that I don't love about this look. First off is the fact that she is wearing no (visible) jewelry. Throwing on some earrings or a necklace could make such a huge difference in this look. Secondly, I absolutely HATE the neckline of this frock. It just looks too harsh on her. I would have loved to see it wish either a deep-V or a sweetheart neckline. 

What do you think of this look? If you had to opportunity to wear it, would you???

I agree about the neckline ...and about accessorizing ...maybe some big black crazy heels and a big black statement collar-bone necklace ...something.

i think it would've looked so much better with a different pair of heels and some jewelry

You're right, the dress is gorgeous but a little off. I agree with the neckline. I think the dress would be amazing with a very deep V neckline. But I think simple earrings are just fine because a necklace would be too much going on especially with a busy dress like this one. I think if she paired the dress with some nude pumps, it would soften the look too. Great post! I love when we get to share our opinions with you and hear about your opinion.

as much as i love gennifer, i'm not a fan of this dress on her. i really love the concept of the dress (the color, the lace, the length) but that neckline, like you said, really isn't flattering on her. :(
