In or Out: Freida Pinto in Antonio Berardi

Anonymous

Not fair to make us choose between you! But I think she’s IN.

I’m giving a rose to Tom. Out. Her hips look wider than they are.

what is wrong with having hips? IN

  Personally, in this case, I think it looks off. There’s nothing wrong with having hips. I have them. But I think the proportions in this instance are wrong.

I like it on her, but probably would hate it on someone else. So IN

parissweetheart

Agree. IN.

But I love you both!

However, I vote with Tom. OUT.

She’s lovely but the dress is too much like it was designed with sci-fi armor in mind. Or maybe it’s the stomach panel’s resemblance to my mama’s girdles circa 1960-something.

Really, should “stomach panel” be a term prominent when describing a lovely evening gown?

What’s with the semi circle over her lady parts? Looks weird.

http://pulse.yahoo.com/_GFMOZFM3WT3T56EZHVZFK7UXSI Ramon

We don’t call them lady parts. It’s no-no place. The semi circle is awful. I am sorry, but it just looks to me like an entrance.

Lindsey Sinnwell

I saw this and loved it and hoped you two would share your opinions. I’m with Lorenzo on this one. IN! I love you, Lorenzo! Sorry, Tom.

She is perfect. LORENZO IS NOW MY FAVORITE DADDY.

I suspect you are not the first person to say that….. Maybe the first woman though….

Hm, I don’t think she’s edgy looking enough to carry this off…although on the model it looks all ethereal-like. The stomach area part is just kind of weird. So I say OUT on Freida, IN on the model.

Anonymous

I totally agree. Better on the model and this just isn’t the dress for our lovely Freida.

Nora Mulllin

OUT! It doesn’t fit. Yes, the dress is pretty and the color works on her but it’s at least 2 sizes too small.

Anonymous

This dress has a few too many design elements. She is so pretty that I’m going back and forth between just staring at her beautiful face, and being distracted by the shoulder elements and the weird design in the front.

So I guess I have to give the dress an OUT, but Freida Pinto is in.

Anonymous

Exactly. The dress is OUT but Freida is in.

Somehow it just doesn’t look right on her. I look at the model and the proportions are so beautiful, but when it is on her, they don’t work. So, as pretty as the dress might be….OUT.

Anonymous

I think it’s cause she’s too short, especially in the torso. That’s why it’s bunching. The dress has a very specific waist and hip, and on her that leaves extra fabric in between.

She has such a striking presence, and I love how she always surprises me with her red carpet choices. Not many could pull this off, but she does. IN

In. I looked at the first picture and thought “Stunning”, therefore I agree with Lorenzo.

The fit is slightly off up top, but she is so IN (albeit slightly Romulan).

Kate Pearce

OUT-I don’t like seeing her hip bones sticking out and all that bunching up. she is still beautiful from the neck up though.

OUT – she’s too short for the dress, she looks stumpy. But I hate it when Daddies fight. Also, Freida Pinto is more gorgeous than the clothes she wears, which is saying something.

So true – her torso is about two inches too short and it completely messes up the fit. It’s too bad, because I think it’s such an interesting dress, but it’s OUT.

While she is, of course gorgeous as always, I can’t like the dress. It looks like the negligee that Wonder Woman would wear on her wedding night with Steve Trevor… I agree with moppet, Ms. Pinto is in, but the dress is out.

I love you both, but am not a fan of the shiny stomach panel. It looks like her organs are suppose to be on display and detracts from the beading and shoulder details. OUT.

Out. It looks like she has a weird girdle-thing going on, and are those little shoulders padded? But I love you both, T & Lo!

Yes, these are the weirdest shoulder pads that I have ever seen.

Out. All I can think is “Breastplate.”

http://profiles.google.com/trashilove { edi } ilovetrash

i love you both & xmas is permanently cancelled in my house anyway. sometimes i wish it werent but i am not naive.

anyway. can we go w/ beautiful, but w/ tragic flaws ?
women so often like men of this type [the kinds that cause permanent xmas cancellation, say], so why not a dress?

i dont like the inexplicable half moons meeting in positive & negative space across the bottom either. nor do i particularly like the change of fabric. the metallic furfuzz of the top would irritate me in under seven minutes if i had to wear it. &, of course, the avant gardianism of the top is a bit strained. it would be nice if only the people who felt compelled to work in this way, worked in this way. that it’s become a trope over- whelming & burdened not to mention a required element for almost everyone is almost unfathomable, at least to me.

other than that it’s a stunner.

i love you both, meaning, in nor out, but threshold.

Team Tom! Ok – I love you too, Lo. But the dress doesn’t look like it fits her exactly, and I think the fit on the model makes all the difference with it. Also the fabric for the stomach panel looks really weird in Frieda’s pictures.

Gorge. Kirsten Dunst in the previous photo seems to be the rare celeb with as slender a waist as the models. But most of the time showing the looks on unusually tall and narrow-waisted models creates an expectation for the dress to hang only one way. She looks amazing, Daddy Tom.

You know… I’m not crazy about it but I’m wondering if it’s partly because we get only the one full frontal shot, and in she’s posing wrong for the dress in it. Hands on hips like that makes the dress look stiff; if she were relaxing her arms like the model I think it would just look structural. Hard to say.

I like this from far away but then we pull in. Then I see that the abdominal bit is in upholstery fabric/leather/something and that it is indeed about an inch too tight in the hips, causing that distressing pulling and bunching.

It’s a big ol’ OUT. The (p)leather portion across her lower midsection, with that seem going right up the front, looks like a cheap bustier, but because it’s on her hips, not her torso, it isn’t sucking her in and it isn’t pushing her chest up and out, i.e. providing the benefits of a bustier. Plus, the structured shoulder, the cut outs, the breastplate-like embellishments…it’s all a bit too fussy.

Also: OUT for the stomach panel, WTF? IN for everything else.

Anonymous

I think i’d love this if it was a skosh bigger (skosh is, of course, the technical sewing jargon). On the model, there’s less tightness around the abdomen and thighs, and it makes a world of difference. that shiny stomach panel, though – erm. well. I can’t commit – somehow I love both Tom and Lorenzo equally. Also, who is that nice-looking young man with her? He’s much more interesting than her dress.

Out. Hip panel and shoulders are too much for me. Alas, it’s almost a really great dress.

She really looks like Dilshad Vadsaria (actress who plays Rebecca Logan on Greek) in these photos. Regardless, IN.

IN. Although I do see the point about the dress. I love the shoulders and the bodice, that is especially pretty to me. That weird panel that highlights the tummy and hips would be impossible for 99% of the population to pull off. She does though, so brava.

In, even though there are minor complains on the horizontal hip and the shoulders (the neckline isn’t working somehow). And Lorenzo, may I pretty please get that Louboutin and QE II’s clutch for Christmas?

I’m going to go with OUT.
She doesn’t look very comfortable and the dress is bunchy in the back. It looks like it doesn’t fit her very well.

Then again, I didn’t like it on the model either.

An unfortunate case of both of you being right, which is galling and should be impossible, but it’s simultaneously gorgeous and a couldabin. I probably should say out because an interesting design plus gorgeous her isn’t adding up to the win it should be, but weirdly I’m feeling IN because she’s so lovely and the dress is striking.

Anonymous

Mmmm . . . the color, the shape, the sweep, the sleeves, the pretty shiny bits, the gorgeous hair, makeup, face . . . . all except the tummy plate. My score card adds up to IN

Anonymous

Ok. NOT working. The silver detailing over the upper torso is lovely. But the sliver panels over the lower abdomen are bizarre. That ruins the dress for me. Also, the drab colorlessness does not help. Such a lovely woman deserves a dress that delivers. This is not doing it.

IN, totally. the design suggests the far east without being specific to any country, and plays up her ethnic exotic beauty. the “color” (is white a color?) looks lovely against her cocoa skin. yum.

I feel like her stylist saw this dress in photos and ordered it in for her and then got too wrapped up in the idea of her wearing it that they decided she was going to wear it no matter how it looked on Frida’s body. Because she looks uncomfortable. And the dress has too much going on for its own good.

She’s gorgeous, but in the third picture I was totally distracted by Luke Evans. He’s soo hot.
Back to her, I think she is IN.. although the dress seems to be made out of two dresses.

I love the top of the dress. Cut off the skirt and wear the top with a pair of black skinny legs.

As shown I would give her an IN. The color of the dress works well with her skin coloring.

Haley Buchanan

Sorry, Lo, but she’s OUT. It looks like her panties or something are bunched up under the dress in the back. And Tom’s right that the fit across he stomach and hips pulls too much. It fits better on the model.

On a lesser mortal, I could agree with Tom’s criticisms of the dress, but this is a case of the right dress on the right girl. The dress makes the girl look great (and she looks thrilled to be wearing it) and the girl makes us forgive the issues with the design. It’s fashion harmony, Daddies. Now please, we love you both. Please go out to a fancy dinner tonight, get a little sloshed, and get fresh with each other until you feel better, m’kay? I already have your 25th wedding anniversary party booked.

It’s too tight across the hips, which makes the dress itself look heavy and stiff instead of light and flowy.

That shiny abdomen covering looks like a new-style cookie sheet was hammered and shoved into that shape to fit just so, and it’s not pretty. It’s not a terribly complimentary design – I’m with Tom.

I’m loving Tom here. I also don’t like the satin panel — it looks like a girdle. No to the shoulders, too. Although I usually hate that washed out peachy-beige that’s so prevalent these days, the color’s good on her thanks to her lovely skintone. But overall it’s an OUT.

Star Trek up top, princess down below.

She looks good in spite of this dress, not because of (or even in cooperation with) it. I think that means it’s an OUT.

Anonymous

I am NOT choosing between my T and my Lo!

However: IN. I see Tom’s point about the metal “plates,” but in my opinion, the overall effect makes it look more like a (tasteful) full bodice and skirt. The reference to armor is obvious, but I think the the shoulders, the eyelets, and the shape of the metallic portion elevate the look from costumy to modern, chic, and futuristic.

With anyone else’s stomach: no. With Frida’s abs: WERQ, girl!

http://twitter.com/Nancer Nancer

The dress is great; the issue is the fit problems. I think some tailoring would have saved this. Still, overall it’s “in.”

Generally okay, but she is narrower across the shoulder than the model, and that makes the sleeve treatment look awkward and costumey. And the fit in the back makes her ass look huge.

I feel voting would be my passively accepting the dysfunction implicit in the options.

Ok, fine. In, but only in the “more in than out sense.” I don’t think I love the cut of the dress and the way she’s standing in the first picture definitely highlights what doesn’t work. But I love the color on her.

I’m with you–it seems to fit the Immortals theme (she says, not having seen the movie). Or at least, what I imagine the Immortals theme to be. it’s like haute couture armor (not Gaga style, with actual chain mail. Just a reference to armor.)

Her makeup and hair are better than what the model got. And in the photo where she’s standing with the dude, they *both* seem to get a lift from her look.

I’m not saying it’s the absolute best, but I think it’s still a solidly beautiful, put together look.

out out out, for all the reasons Tom notes. the bodice just looks ‘heavy’ to me, the padding at the sleeveless shoulder is doing weird things in the back, and the “straight across the widest portion of the hip with semicircle cutout in the center, plus transition from shiny to matte” detailing is not flattering. The beading is gorgeous, but it looks like a family crest, like something that would belong on a medieval herald’s tabard. I also don’t think the dress looks good on the model either.

Out. pair the top with pants and some kick-ass boots and I’d like it (even if it would be very costumy, but it is now anyway so that doesn’t matter!). As it is, even on the model the fabric rides and puckers where the bodice armor meets the skirt and looks bad. As neither of these women can wear the dress without it folding like that, it shouldn’t be a dress.
