Our first impulse was to Google whether she’s pregnant (she’s not, so far as the public knows) but it was quickly followed by the inescapable feeling that she’d stolen this dress from Elle Fanning. We strong dislike the skirt design, which makes her all belly-forward when photographed from the front. We also hate the giant flower, which is out of proportion with the rest of the design. But mostly, we just think this sort of retro style doesn’t suit her all that well. It just looks wrong with her hair worn that way.

This is such an odd look. Why bring a wrap if you’re not gonna wrap yourself with it? What’s the point of that large bag except to show off the tacky branding on it? The dress design is simple to the point of being generically boring, except for the bust We can’t tell if that area is overdesigned, or if she’s wearing multiple pieces under it, but either way, it looks odd and distracting. The socks are ugly. Somebody did you wrong here, girl.
