Yay or Nay: Christina Hendricks in Leather on the Red Carpet

Posted by Alexandra C. | Monday October 15, 2012

I loved Christina Hendricks in Drive and I loved her in Mad Men but I don't love her in this leather, A-line skater type dress. Don't get me wrong, trying new ways to wear leather is tons of fun. A cute little dress in this cut can be extremely flattering but both of these done together just isn't working for me.

I think Ms. Hendricks deserves better from an outfit, don't you? She's got that incredible curvy figure and I just can't understand why she insisted on covering it up with a turtle neck and long sleeves. I'm a big believer in balancing your outfit. So with a longer hemline, I would have appreciated a bit of skin on top. Why not? She's trying to play dangerous with leather, but the outfit has absolutely no sex appeal. It's dull, boring, and just plain no fun. Christina, you can do better. It's time to break up with dress.

What do you think of Christina's leather dress? Is this one a yay or a nay? Leave a comment below by October 21st and you could win!
