Re: Gugu Mbatha-Raw in Sky Theme Gown

I don't know who she is....she is a very beautiful woman.  And I like the style and the top of her dress.  But the skirt reminds me of a Halloween costume I had as a kid.

I don't care for this dress.  Looks mis-matched between the top and bottom.  Looks a little girlish and more like she's going to a prom.

She is a very beautiful woman but what covers Vogue nowadays is not to my liking at all.  Perhaps there needs to be a real fashion magazine to compete with these who are trying too hard to keep their name.

 

The dress, however, is not at all appealing and I would hope the beauty wearing it would, next time, wear something as lovely as she.

@aubnwa01  Yes, it's pronounced Goo Goo.

This dress looks like a poorly done fairy princess costume.  Blech.

 

With that said, she's gorgeous and can pull off anything because you can't keep your eyes off her face.

@lmt   Thanks!  I was never sure if it was pronounced that way or maybe like JuJu, or GooJoo & I'd never heard her name said, just read it in print.

@aubnwa01  I was curious to see how she pronounced her name so I Googled it. She did an interview with Gayle King and was introduced as Goo Goo.

Shes beautiful, but I'm not crazy about the dress. I think it looks like she's auditioning for a Disney character role.
