I love this dress, this whole look on Naomi Watts. I don’t know that I’d love it on many others. Maybe Charlize Theron. But definitely not, say, Cameron Diaz. Or Zoe Saldana. And it’s not like those other ladies can’t pull off a dress. But there’s some old glamour that Naomi can bring to it, with the red lips and a certain, I don’t know, classic sophistication, and you’ll note it could easily be unflattering, all loose like that, and still she wears it not like a sequined sheet but like a proper gown with movement and shape. Better still...it must be comfortable.
