What the Frock: Olivia Palermo

Our panelists on the latest and greatest celebrity looks

Olivia Palermo at the Valentino haute couture show in Paris yesterday

Lynn Enright, staff writer at Never Underdressed
Olivia Palermo is one of those celebrities who is famous for looking good and little else, but looking this good must be quite an arduous job in fairness. She almost looks plastic she's so pretty. I really like what she's done with this outfit too. She's taken a pretty ruffled dress with a straightforward neckline and transformed it into something quite fashion. Bravo.

I actually think the concept of what is happening here is quite cool, i.e. the butch shirt versus femme cocktail dress. I'd lose the beads and add a smart tie and ditch the sunglasses. If you are going to look this experimental, look me in the eye and tell me you mean it.

Sophie Heawood, journalist and columnist 
What is she wearing? God, I love having to work it out. A dress made of roses all bunched together, hewn from the finest crepe de bin bag, apparently. Seriously, I've seen art collectives in Peckham squats create similarly impressive sculptures out of black sacks. This is a good thing! The dress looks like it could just slither off her at a moment's notice, perhaps revealing a pair of shocking pink knickerbockers underneath. I'd like that.
