Yay or Nay? Gwyneth Paltrow's Stella McCartney Red Carpet Style

Posted by Alexandra C. | Monday November 28, 2011

To be honest, I have mixed feelings about Gwyneth Paltrow to begin with so I'm going to try and remain neutral and impartial for this yay or nay and present the the evidence as unbiased as possible.

Here's the facts: this dress is different (to say the least) and unusual but I always appreciate the avant garde. However, I almost feel like this dress crosses the line into silliness- why the one sleeve, why the trim and the busy print?

I do like the blue on Gwyenth- definitely her colour and the length is fabulous on her long legs! But what's with the wacky hemline? I'm not crazy about the cross over neckline either- I think an open neckline on Gwen would be much more flattering.

All in all, I always like to give kudos to any brave lady who dares to go all out with fashion. What do you think, is this a fabulous fashion risk or should her stylist be fired? Is this a yay or nay? Leave us a comment by December 4th to win a prize!

Personally to me this is hideous and I don't know why her stylist let her walk anywhere in this outfit. She has an amazing body and can pull off almost any style.. why they chose this for her...
