Now THIS is classically elegant.  I so wish Jennifer Garner has worn something like this instead.[/quote]

Jennifer Garner?  She did wear something classically elegant:

The red carpet pics muddy the dress so much. You can't see the skirt is made up of tiers of beaded loops, which is swingy and beautiful when she walks.[/quote]

But the entire point here is to pick a dress that works on the red carpet!! If it doesn’t work in still photos, don’t choose it.[/quote]

I agree with this. I also tend to think it was a series of factors that make the still photos so dull and aging, making it a styling fail. The cut of the top of the dress is matronly. Even in the photos where you can see how well the dress moves, I think the jewel neck with the tank sleeves just looks "soccer mom". I would have liked to see either a lower neckline or maybe make it a cutaway tank or halter style to show off her shoulders better.

Her hair, while obviously gorgeous, also looks a little dated at that length and in that style. With a different dress it would have looked "classic Hollywood glamour" which is always a safe choice. But because of the way the top of the dress was cut, it further emphasized this kind of matronly soccer mom vibe I was getting. I would be interested to see it in a slightly more editorial, high fashion style, to see how it changes the dress -- a few inches shorter and super straight, or a dramatic updo. I'm not sure but something about it just feels too staid and safe.

Then compounding this is the way the fabric shimmer and movement doesn't show up on camera well, and it's rendered in black which reads as plain without those elements.

The fabric is stunning and I do like how it moves but I think there are more problems here than just it not photographing great. I think people just love Jen Garner and are being really generous. It was not one of the best looks of the night and is ultimately pretty forgettable.[/quote]
