Michelle Monaghan in Versace Fall 2008. In the past I’ve brushed off Versace as bedizened, pin money clothing at its worst. This makes me reconsider.
Lily Donaldson in Balmain. It doesn’t get much better than this - an English girl in the French house do jour.
Dita Von Teese in Christian Dior. Teese acquiesces to her go-to designer once again, this time with mediocre results.

Dita looks absolutely awful. The only thing I like about the piece is the shape of the shoulder. Lily, on the other hand, looks amazing: I just didn’t need to see all that leg.
I hate the Balmain dress. I see no point to it, and if one wants to show a lass’s knickers, there have to be chicer ways to do it than this.
I agree with above. Lily obviously takes pride in her legs–but she doesn’t need to reveal THAT much of them. Honestly, the panties look a little cheap.
I thought that you said Christophe Decarnin’s Balmain was awful.
Holy legs–I love her legs but honestly she could have left more to the imagination, you know?
oh my god. i love lily in that balmain dress. and the shoes…oh my god. this would be my trophy wife.
