I could tell this was Oscar de la Renta by the bodice, which we just saw on Brie Larson, and because the detailing is nearly identical to what Kiernan Shipka wore yesterday, in a more dramatic (and successful) format. But the rest of it feels more like the designers’ younger label Monse, in the “crazy ill-fitting and WTF” kind of way. SURELY these pants should not be bagging and polterwanging in the crotch, and because they’re doing that, the length seems less trendy than accidental. Worse, I feel like I’ve seen this basic concept a thousand times before, most of them on Emma, and it pales in comparison even to the last OdlR she wore on this press tour.

Indeed, riddle me this, Tom: Why did Emma Watson save her dullest press tour outfit BY FAR for the Hollywood stop? Examine, if you will, the Elie Saab she wore in China, the front of which is here:

Even this is more interesting:

The OdlR feels like she’s picking at scraps left on the table. It’s a Disney movie, premiering at the El Capitan, which for those not familiar is the Disney theatre in Los Angeles (they often do live-action fun stuff before screenings of the movies, like a laser light show before The Force Awakens, for example). I would think that called for ending with a bang, not with an iron-deficient yawn.
