Yay or Nay? Hilary Swank's Red Carpet Style

In theory, Hilary Swank's outfit at the premiere of New Year's Eve has everything that I love. She's elegant in a jewel tone shade and sophisticated with just the right amount of sheer and sequins. That being said, there is something holding me back from really loving this look.

I think it's the weird choice of sleeve. Tell me I'm not the only one who notices the bat wings? A loosely tied together bow at the waist over a sheer overlay, is not the best look. There is way too much fabric on her very athletic and slim frame. I really hate this because cut a different way, or even styled differently, this would be totally chic!

However, I do need to give a shout out to Hilary's hair and make up team- girl looks beautiful! I read some complaints on her shoe choice, but here I diverge, I actually really like them. They're interesting enough to make a statement but don't take away from the dress.

What do you think- are the bat wings blinding your judgement too? Is this a yay or nay?

	on January 05, 2012 Quinn 977 said: Nay. I don't like or understand the whole "one sleeve kimono" look. I agree with you on her hair and makeup, she always looks fresh!

	on December 19, 2011 MissyLee 1,610 said: She looks pretty good. The colour of the dress and her hair and makeup make her just glow. It would have been brought up to fantastic if it had gone to a taper just below her knees though.
