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?

Nay. all of the cut is wrong, not just the sleeves

I think its a yay. it could be improved, but as mentioned the colour is gorgeous, and though the sleeves are overwhelming, she's rocking it. Not her best, but it could be much worse.

Nay! I would have loved it if there were no sleeves on the dress. Way too much going on! . Her hair and makeup is beautiful.

Yay! I love the look! And most of all, I can see this outfit on normals like us too :-) I would have just had her chose a more vivid lip colour, like a cool red or something, but other than that, I think the outfit and shoe rocks!

Nay. This dress doesn't do a thing for her.

Yay! I really like the dress (especially the top) and think it looks great on her. Her hair and makeup really complete the look.

I like the fabric and colour, but think it is the way the bottom is cut off so dramatically straight, high above the knee, that makes it look unbalanced and top heavy, so its a Nay

Nay simply because the shape is bad and the sleeves are even worse.

That's a big NAY. the cut and style of the dress does not do her body good. Erg. Not a good look.
