    Splurge: Gabrielle Union’s InStyle‘s Dinner With A Designer Jason Wu Floral Print Dress and Valentino Rockstud Platform Pumps

    by Jihan

    Think Like A Man’s Gabrielle Union attended InStyle‘s Dinner With a Designer event, rocking a look from the night’s honoree, $1,595 Jason Wu. She chose a gray, black, and white floral printed dress from the designer’s Spring 2012 collection, adding a black belt and $895 Valentino Rockstud platform pumps.

     

    Her dress is 100% cotton, has an A-line silhouette, scoop neck, and slim shoulder straps.

    Her super sexy Valentino pumps have a peachy contrasting studded trim, 5.25″ heel with a 1.50″ platform.

    Obviously, the dress and shoes are fabulous, but it seems that 90% of the time Gabrielle bets on black. I would have loved to see a shot of color, like a chartreuse shoe or clutch. It would have enlivened the whole look. Anyhow, if you like her ‘fit, you can get all the pieces here:

    What do you think?

      This is not a good look for Gabby. The dress is bland, does nothing for her shape, and those shoes do not match. She’s too pretty for this!

      I don’t like this on Gabby. It looks hot on the model.

      Maybe if she’d had big curly hair and the runway shoe, I would’ve liked this on her.

      The dress is okay, I just think it should be more colorful. The black and gray is so drab.

      sigh, why is gabby so scared of color? even a red lip would’ve made this look pop more. Guess I should just be thankful for the purple toenails….

      Gabby is not a fashion plate, but she always looks beautiful and true to her own sense of style. I actually think that’s kinda cool. I prefer that to someone trying too hard and getting it wrong (side eye to Beyonce and Lala).
