Oscars 2013: Brandi Glanville’s Dress Gets the Night’s First Award — for Most Bewildering

If you caught a glimpse of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Brandi Glanville, your first question — even before “What is she doing there?” — was “What is she wearing?!“

From the neck up, Glanville went for a classic Old Hollywood look, with a softly curled updo, red lips and a Jeffrey Daniels Unique Designs diamond choker.

From the neck down, Glanville seems to have gotten confused about which awards show she was attending, showcasing her Golden Globes to maximum effect in a dress she reportedly designed herself.

The plunging sweetheart neckline, high-slit ruffled train and dishwater hue were all bold choices for someone who may have otherwise walked the red carpet completely unnoticed.

And attracting attention before the night even truly began is certainly worthy of an award in and of itself.

Tell us: What do you think of Glanville’s daring dress?

Brandi Glanville needs to pull her dress up 3 or 4 inches, it not only makes her look cheap, it looks like it is falling off

I like it! Just thought the breast line could be moved up 2 inches. BUT-I don’t like her. I just like the dress that’s all.

Needs to cover it up. It’s the Oscars and middle America sometimes wants normal, I do wish the actress wear diamond neckless more, its missing this year

She’s exposing way too much of herself. There’s a way to look sexy without having it all hanging out.

I’m totally team Brandi, but that dress is ill-fitting…
Her torso is too long for it.
How on earth didn’t she see that…

Why bother cover the nips at all, if you are going this far?

Any woman who is confident and talented wouldn’t need to sell herself so hard.

Wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen. Very poorly fitted dress. It’s a shame because she has a beautiful body

Heather on February 24th, 2013

Alex Apatoff, your critique is skewed- she looks gorgeous!

Josh L. on February 24th, 2013

I really like the dress it showed off her healthy body and made her stand out in my mind.
