I’d like Rachel Weisz to strangle me in this gown. The red latex crop top is giving me Berlin sex club vibes. I like that the tulle skirt isn’t too tufty, which would’ve overwhelmed the whole look. The headband… I could do without. A more tousled hairdo might’ve evened out the princess/dominatrix contrast.

It’s definitely a departure from Weisz’s safer choices on the red carpet. Just because you know you’re not going to win doesn’t mean you have to wear a snooze of a dress (hi Amy Adams!). Thank you Lady Sarah for saving us from looking at another sweetheart neckline or pink tulle dress.
