Maybe it is edgy or fashion forward and I just don’t get it.

Wrong is still wrong just because you benefited from it.

It's all right. I don't love it by any stretch and I don't hate it. It does, however, look more like a house dress than a gown for a formal event and I wouldn't opt to wear it to one.
It's called the Canopy Evening Dress and is made from tulle and organza (nylon and silk, apparently) with very intricate embroidery. I think if one saw it in person, it wouldn't look at all like a house dress. There is a whole "Canopy" collection, including shorter dresses and skirts with a similar pattern. According to the description on the Temperley site, "this compelling evening dress is detailed high-contrast embroidery depicting key inspirations of the season - graphics from Tibetan tiger rugs and striking botanicals." The black version is out of stock, but the white version is still available and deeply discounted! It received positive write-ups from a few places, including Harper's Bazaar.

Pippa looks lovely. The photo casts a shadow making her neck appear larger than what it is. Pippa, Happiness is her best accessory.
