While the pose is stiff and awkward, it's a million times better than that half stripper/half sex kitten, arms behind her head "come get me" pose she kept doing on the red carpet previously.

I'm glad someone told her to stop that.

Keep in mind she's a pageant girl, so she has been trained to be very.... I can't find the right word and I don't want to offend any pageant lovers. Let's just say sometimes she can come off overly "rehearsed".

Let me also add, as a fashion and sewing maniac, I can appreciate the fabric and the pattern. I think it would have been better if it was cocktail length or just straight floor length. Seriously, we know you have a nice ass and hips, you don't have to keep wearing this particular mermaid style to prove it, we believe you.

 

[shootout]

I actually really liked it.

I'm an on and off fan of hers, but lately, she dresses/acts/talks as though thinks she's whole lot more classic than she actually is. As though she's some sort of legend...it's kind of off putting bb. Stop it.

Love that song....but not as much as 'Dissapear', and i dont love either nearly as much as 'Radio'....She so needs to make it her summer jam! Just subscribed to you on youtube.

I CANT believe you think the ped-egg sucks. I swear by that thing. Both my mom and I actually.

The puff at the bottom and the gold make me think of a christmas cracker..hehe

I agree with whoever else said that it would be a gorgeous dress without that thing at the bottom...what is that? =S

 

[~MARIETTE~]

^^i think they call it the mermaid tail design. its done alot in hollywood. i personally dont like it on anyone, but it looks better on thinner women.

i.e

LOL! I had a similar thought... it reminded me of some bad curtains from the 80's. I have the utmost respect and admiration for Beyonce. She is my fave entertainer by far but this dress is horrid!

 

[LoveMU]

I could see how she would think when she was getting ready how the dress was unique and beautiful, yet sexy, LOL but then sometimes when you put it on, you don't have your head on straight and then u see the pics and it's like, god why did i do that!?

It's a good thing her makeup looked good!

Also i do that pose with my arms all the time to make them look thinner, because arms look fatter when they're pressed up against your body. it's actually a stupid trick, she doesn't need to do it, but hey everybody's got their thing.

I love the mermaid tail!!! I do agree though that it often most flattering on smaller figures.

However, that puff pastry piece of shiz on the bottom of beyonce's dress is NOT a mermaid tail.... Actually, I really don't even know what that is. It's like you took a mermaid tailed, rouched it, and put a baby petticoat underneath it...really, wtf is that? It's just another case of House of DamnItsAllWrong at work.

 

[browneyedbaby]

It could of worked... but not in that exact shape!

 

[sharkbytes]

She looks like an award statuette, lol. For like, Best Representation of a Louis XVI settee. She's SO pretty, she would look incredible if she chose clean lines and good cuts. That face of hers is a statement all on it's own, she doesn't need to wear an eye-searing print with two off shades of black and enormous gold flowers to stand out.

Riiiiiiiight.

 

[cupcake_x]

I'm in love with the cut and style (I wore a hot pink mermaid style dress sort of like this, so I shouldn't hate on it especially since it was HOT PINK...) but the fabric/print is awful.

Beyonce is a beautiful and talented woman, but her fashion choices are often not very good ones..

 

[carandru]

I remember reading somewhere that she was trying to become an icon... hence the "more classic" mannerisms and such. Although, I always thought you didn't really become an icon by setting out w/ that particular goal. But whatevs.

 

[couturesista]

I'm sorry but,there is nothing new about her mannerisms. She has been rocking that same mannequin pose since D.C., the only thing that has change is her Tina Turner and Dianna Ross wigs and makeup, which I love. She seems to be the mini Gwyneth in the hair and makeup dept., very clean and simple hairdo's. I'm not buying it. She is a beautiful girl with awholbunchalotta talent and very little personality, IMO.

 

[DirtyPlum]

She looks great from the shoulders upwards, I LOVE her MU. That dress is way too unflattering, but most of her wardrobe is a kinda off.
