So firstly let me say this dress is not purple.  In other photos it’s clear that the sequins are more of a crimson colour.   Thank god.  So I will not be penalising Elle for this.  Other than the momentary dubious colour, I have to say Elle looks fabulous here.  The dress fits like a glove, the colour looks fantastic on her skin and for once the super tight bun and it’s simplicity really works with the complexity of the dress.  If I was going to say anything negative it would be that she looks almost blue she’s so pale and the dress is a tiny bit too grown up on her.  But I’m just nit-picking really, this is a great effort. She’s positively blooming (lovely).
