    Not. The Balenciaga ensemble is more art than function, which is fine on a runway, but few real people will or can wear it. But it makes a statement about the company, and maybe they will sell more other stuff as a result.

    Wow....I never realized that Jessica was that skinny, not a good look for her....I agree this is indeed a couture piece.

    Hideous. And the model looks like a near-death sideshow freak.

    When this collection came out, I didn't like it at all in term of functionality. It's great as art but not on the red carpet. This collection was acclaimed by the fashion gurus at style.com. I agree with the other posters, I didn't realize that Jennifer Connelly was that thin and why Jennifer Connelly as a spokesmodel? She doesn't have that avant-garde, ulta-luxe image.

    I can't understand why they photoshop her sickly thin. She looks much better in reality. Only sick people want legs like that.
    Her legs are too short for the boots. Why didn't they photoshop that instead?

    Ugly, ugly, ugly. Her hair & makeup could have matched the dress. Looks like she just got out of the shower or ran a marathon. The dress isn't so bad, but those boots, ugh! God awful horrendous!

    Oh yeah, I know there's a little poof in the dress, but don't use that as an excuse for looking way too skinny. Glamoring this to the world's women just increases the bulimia and anorexia masses. And to all those fashion designers who say that they aren't part of the problem, f*ck off!
