First of all, don’t worry: She DID have a coat, she just took it off so we could all see her dress in these shots. (It’s not anywhere near as cold here as it has been elsewhere in the US obviously — please stay warm, Fug Nation! — but it’s definitely too nippy for a dress like this, especially at night.)
Second: I kind of love this. The color is unusual for a cocktail-y dress, the draping is good, and it has POCKETS. I’m pleased! (Perhaps easily so, but who cares. Let’s all take this win!)
