Is Jaime King too young for this Giambattista Valli dress?
Giambattista Valli does make him some stunning gowns, no one can deny that. Why else would he get a Haute Couture appellation after just one collection, eh?
So, although no one is doubting the elegance and pure beauty of his creations, we don’t think this particular dress (as gorgeous as it is!) from Giambattista Valli’s pre-fall 2012 collection works on Jaime King. Especially for the occasion she is wearing it for, which essentially just involved posing in front of a Lexus. Something more casual and quirky would have sufficed, we think.
Had the dress been tailored and readjusted to sit just above the knee, it might have been more youthful and age appropriate but this doesn’t really do anything for us. The hair really doesn’t help either which is a real shame as we love the eccentric style Jamie usually brings to the table. Or red carpet.
What do you guys reckon?
