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?

I like the fabric but the bow and the sleeves aren't doing it for me. It would have been ideal with out them. Nay. But a YAY with some much needed alterations.

I vote Yay - I am so in love with this colour on her (and what an amazing ombre job on her hair! That's how it's done, people) that I don't even notice the funny sleeves. And even when I do, I can't hate them. Good call, Hilary!

Nay. the length and the textured lace sheer just don't fit right on her.
