It's always the fit that goes wrong - she doesn't seem to have any alterations to her clothes, unlike Kate, Mary or Melania.
The latest Karen Gee white dress is no exception.
There are two big picture things wrong with the Karen Gee dress. And I haven't even started on the midi flatters no one.
1st - a rectangle body shape will never find her best look in a straight up & down sheath. Even if it had a belt, the answer is the same. A rectangle body will look like a rectangle in a straight up & down sheath.
2nd - the fit is very poor.
It is rippling & bubbling all over at the slightest move she makes. That and/or she is wearing bad foundation garments.
Personally I think that it is too big for her, but that's just a theory.
In the past when her clothes haven't fitted her well, in a dark colour it's hard to notice. But in light shades like white - everything stands out.
This is a big fail for SIA.
It looks marginally better with the trenchcoat because the skinniness is hidden but when you have to cover up the figure, it's not the best pass in the world either.
The back split
On another note, the dress is $1,800 being made with the Karen Gee Premium fabric. Fair enough. But the back split is edge to edge. These splits are quite easy to split. A better split would be the overlapping one.
So what could have been better?
A dress that has interest at the top & the bottom, creating a waist. The interest can be with colour, print, a dark contrast, pattern, zips, buttons etc. A boatneck or a fit & flare style could have also detracted from her rectangle style. If she wanted a sheath, then a Roland Mouret style with curves & flounce would have been a big improvement.
SIA cannot comprehend who dresses this woman.
