Yay or Nay? Hilary Swank's Red Carpet Style

Posted by Alexandra C. | Monday December 12, 2011

In theory, Hilary Swank's outfit at the premiere of New Year's Eve has everything that I love. She's elegant in a jewel tone shade and sophisticated with just the right amount of sheer and sequins. That being said, there is something holding me back from really loving this look.

I think it's the weird choice of sleeve. Tell me I'm not the only one who notices the bat wings? A loosely tied together bow at the waist over a sheer overlay, is not the best look. There is way too much fabric on her very athletic and slim frame. I really hate this because cut a different way, or even styled differently, this would be totally chic!

However, I do need to give a shout out to Hilary's hair and make up team- girl looks beautiful! I read some complaints on her shoe choice, but here I diverge, I actually really like them. They're interesting enough to make a statement but don't take away from the dress.

What do you think- are the bat wings blinding your judgement too? Is this a yay or nay?
