J.Crew's Questionable Styling

Posted on 21:05 by gaurav kumar
Over the weekend, I picked up a copy of the latest August catalog. Overall, I am enjoying it all— from the colors, the outfits, and the overall layout.

As I was flipping through, one of the images caught my eye... and not in a good way. The following is on page 86:
At first glance, this image seems fine. Upon closer look, there is a "what-the-@#.&. is she wearing?" moment. That is right! She is not wearing the upper portion of her gown. Instead she chooses to have it laying around her stomach like (1) it's extra cloth that someone forgot to remove or (2) it's another option to wear the dress. In either case, I think it looks weird.

I guess J.Crew's attempt to go up-scale with their wedding dresses also means weirdly styled photos. Call me a traditionalist, but I like it when a model/bride actually wears the dress (and the whole dress!)

What are your thoughts on the image? Do you like the way it's styled? Did you notice it?
