Yay or Nay: Jennifer Morrison Red Carpet Menswear

Posted by Alexandra C. | Monday April 23, 2012105 comments


As a guilty pleasure fan of the show Once Upon A Time, I'm actually a kind of a closeted Jennifer Morrison fan. I like her cute, unique style and her tough as nails attitude, which is why when I saw her rock a men's suit on the red carpet, I was pretty impressed with her moxie.


I'm usually not a fan of women doing menswear, it always feels a bit like a novelty and too kitschy to me. However, I'm inclined to give a 'Well, played' nod to Ms. Morrison here for this androgynous look. I think it works mostly because she's contrasted her masculine look with very feminine makeup and hair. That crimson pout is gorgeous with her porcelain skin and her milkmaid-esque braid goes surprisingly well with her suit. 

There is one thing that seriously bugs me about this look: the cut. It feels way too bulky and casual to me. I would have loved to have seen Jennifer is something a little sleeker and fitted to show off a bit of curve. However, when it comes to fashion, I think everyone should just go for it and have fun with it! Never play it safe! So, for this menswear look, I am going to give Jennifer a pass. 

What do you think? Is this gender bending outfit a yay or nay? Leave a comment with your vote by April 29th for a chance to win!

Nay I think the look is sleek and the makeup is great, but she almost looks like someone that should be serving us something. I've seen other tux/masculine looks done, but had something else to it! and I don't like the whisps of hair sticking our over her right ear. Tho if its windy out I'll give it a push!

Yay! I love her hair and the modified suit jacket. She made the suit look feminine and its awesome.

I think it's a great look, and outfit for her, but the suit could definitely have been more tailored to her shape, it looks a bit bulky/frumpy
