Let’s Break Down Kristen Stewart’s Sheer Dress, Shall We?

So kudos to Kristen Stewart for having an amazing body and a stylist who helps her take risks. She’s gone a little out of the box on her recent On the Road press tour, and it’s been fun to watch.

But Stewart’s most recent look — a bra top and boy shorts combo covered with a sheer, floral-print overlay, worn to a premiere in New York Thursday night — has us a little stumped. The Erdem spring 2013 creation — seen on the runway this fall — was for spring, when it’s not 40 degrees in New York. And that’s not the only issue we have with the dress:

1. The midriff. Stewart has one of the hottest bodies in Hollywood, yet her toned tummy is looking a little scrunched in this bra top, thanks to the low bra band, high boy short waistline and satin material, all of which are very unforgiving.

2. The side. The back of the dress is solid, made in the same ice blue as the bra top and shorts. That means an unsightly side seam that makes the dress even busier, and cuts her profile in a strange way.

3. The length. On the runway, this dress was knee-length, making it more appropriate and much more feminine. Though we’d give anything to have Stewart’s killer legs, cutting the dress right at the middle of her thighs isn’t particularly flattering — or ladylike.

On the plus side? Her hair and makeup are flawless, and we’re lusting after those hot heels. But sorry, Stewart: We’re going to have to call this one a major miss. Tell us: How do you feel about this confusing dress?

Don’t really like this outfit, but she usually dresses beautifully and has the figure to pull most everything off. Seems like more curves are limiting. The see-through thing is getting a little tiresome, though.

The dress was cut off to spotlight her crotch and sell sexuality because of the movie. Where do your eyes go when you look at the photo? Her crotch.

she totally rocks it.

Runway version of this dress is much classier and prettier… but, I still like this on her.

Glen on December 15th, 2012

She is not the sexy girl type, no matter what she dresses.

Joey on December 15th, 2012

She always looks so awkward and uncomfortable, I find it hard to call her fashion forward and willing to take a risk. She looks like she’s going to bolt out the door the first chance she gets. And those shoes may be hot but she just doesn’t know how to stand in heels to make the most of her legs and posture. She is certainly thin but she doesn’t have the rocking body other women in Hollywood do. She needs some muscle tone and definition (and maybe a nice smile) before you can say she’s got one of the best bodies. And the coy, I-don’t-care attitude is just getting annoying. If she doesn’t want to be there, go away.

She keeps wearing all this sheer junk looking clothes lately. She should go back into hiding like she did after the affair. Now she is wearing all this stuff that makes her look like a ho that supposedly she didn’t want to be sized up as after what she did. And she isn’t any thing more than an average looking woman anyway.

DaFuq!!??

Marie Mullin on December 15th, 2012
