He looks … whatever. He should’ve tucked the shirt in. But because he’s so dull and she’s so focus-pulling, we’re not here to talk about him. Personally, we think she looks fantastic. We tend not to love her in things like black-and-white gowns sporting slightly severe hairstyles like the one she’s got going on here. But we think this gown plays perfectly within her style sweet spot, which we have always characterized as “cartoon couture.” She’s at her best in bright colors and bold details. She’s at her most dull when she’s trying to do serious high fashion. And yet, despite the lack of color and the high-fashion pedigree behind this dress, we think it’s perfect for her. We also think some of the kittens (i.e., you, possibly) are going to not love those (for lack of a better term) sleeves. We think they make the look for her. Do you? Put another way…
