Emma Stone in short, puffy, goofy Lanvin at the Met Gala: cute or too juvenile?


Remember that purple and fuschia v-neck chiffon Lanvin gown that Emma wore to the Golden Globes this year? It had a belt with an eagle on it, which was kind of amazing. That dress would have been perfect for the Met Gala, but instead she wore this very goofy, short, childish red number with a giant skirt and weird little see-through flower discs all over it. Lanvin has come through for Emma other times the past. Earlier this year she wore that peach and black dress with the silver snake wrapped around the collar that J.Lo also sported recently. And she was in a beautiful full length v-neck mint-colored Lanvin at a Glamour event late last year. So I could see why she would trust them, they’ve created some of her prettiest, most-fashion forward looks. Except for last year’s Met Gala, when she wore a flower-print strapless Lavin that was kind of underwhelming.

I’ll say something nice, I really like her hair all purposefully messy like that, and her makeup is very well done. She’s had some heavy-handed eyeshadow on at past events, to the point where she’s looked clownish. Last night, though, her makeup looks great. It’s too bad it was overshadowed by that tea cozy of a dress.

This is Alber Elbaz, the designer. Look at his shoes! Bill Nighy looks like he’s photobombing them.

    Oh! I thought that dress was adorable! I loved it on her. I thought it was a much better short dress than that rag Goopy was wearing.

    While the dress is lovely it looks like something Elle Fanning should have worn to the Met Gala, not Emma Stone. It’s all daisies, no drama.

    Very baby doll-ish, especially the way she is standing. She’s a grown woman and should dress like one. I like the red color and would have thought it would have been nice if it was longer.

    I love the dress! I know it’s a gala but the “Met Gala” is known more for fashion and making a statement. Emma Stone’s dress stands out and it’s perfect for her.

    She looks beautiful, it’s a youthful dress for her, she is only 23, now is when she can wear a dress like that.

    Ugh. I can’t shake the feeling that someone is trying to become the new Zooey Deschenel.

    And that looks like a Barbie dress.

    Adorable! Not too juvenile, she’s still YOUNG this is perfectly appropriate. I still Love the eagle belt purple dress she wore for the Golden Globes but this is a different event/different style, just as good.

    She looks fantastic! What a knockout look! I love that she went red with the dress, since she’s gone back to blonde with the hair. Anything else and she might have looked washed out.

    I also really like it. I love the color on her and I just think it’s a fun little dress.

  23. zoehart says:

    I hated this dress, and the whole look. It’s so 1960s deb, like she’s dressing up as her character from The Help. Which I hated too, so probably not the best judge here.

    But yes, she looks intentionally juvenile. She could be twelve years old here. She’s in her early twenties and should dress like it! Especially when we’ve seen her wear such youthful yet sophisticated dresses in the past.

    i really like this girl’s fashion choices (i thought she looked amazing at the oscars) but this is kind of meh. i dislike that pinkish red color and the length is odd; if it were that color and longer, or that length and white or black i would like it better.

    I like this dress on her because she is still young enough to get away with the ballerina look on the red carpet. It’s a fun look for her. I think her hair and make up look great even though I miss her beautiful red hair.

    She looks like a child. It’s kind of gross actually and not really something appropriate for the Met in my opinion.

    Holy Toddlers and Tiaras!!! With her hair and styling she looks like she’s a five year old wearing a four year old’s dress! If it were strapless, a little longer, and her hair was down it would be fine, but right now she is every pedophile’s dream girl, and it’s gross.

    She’s too old for this look on a red carpet. This is for a sophisticated 10-15 y/o at this event (like the girl who plays Sally from Mad Men, or Dakota Fanning a few years ago), not a woman in her 20s, especially not one that looks to be in her late 20s, even though she’s 23. #justsayin
