Yay or Nay? Hilary Swank's Red Carpet Style

Posted by Alexandra C. | Monday December 12, 201192 comments


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?

There is a bit much going on with the beading and sequins and sleeves and bow/belt. That being said, I love the colour and think it looks gorgeous on her.

YAY !! I think she looks fabulous. It seems like - if everyone isnt dressed the same, then they are weird .. I love the see thru material and how this dress looks, its a great colour and she is wearing it well

Nay! The sleeves ruin the dress. Otherwise it may have looked nice but there is just too much going on.

I like the idea of it, but the overlay should have been a closer cut. The blue is gorgeous though.

I would say yay if the top of the dress was strapless or sleeveless; the shawl like drape on the top doesn't look too nice.

Nay...the sleeves are horrible.

I love the dress but since it's so gauzy and billowy, a solid colour shoe would stick out better. I think she looks faaab.

Yay.... but her makeup nay... I really don't like it... and she could have picked better shoes.. maybe like red heels would have been a nice pop of colour!
