Celebrity: Mo’nique
Can you believe I ran several searches on who designed Golden Globe’s winner Mo’nique and came up with nada? Finally I posted to Facebook.com and immediately was reminded that wedding designer Reem Acra dressed Mo’nique. In today’s “much more than zero” sized America women, how could Mo’nique an award winner on Sunday evening not be covered on the various fashion and entertainment sites? This over-40 size 2 is not likin’ the size discrimination.
Make no mistake, tabloid TMZ did manage to expose Mo’nique’s hairy almost man-like unshaven legs. Can you believe they seek this stuff out? Luckily Mo’s styling team didn’t miss a beat on what you were supposed to see.
Color:
If you’re about to win a Golden Globe, wearing gold certainly would be symbolic. If you are Mo’nique with her warm golden undertones, “Golden Globe” gold is perfect to wear for her new slimmed-down figure. Shame on the press for not giving props to the girls outside of society’s norm.
Bodyshape:
Reem Acra’s strapless with asymmetrical pleated bodice, empire waist and lots of drapey billowing almost seemed too much in the back, Yet when Mo’nique turned around after her acceptance speech this same billowiy effect created deflection and movement to what could have made Mo’nique look larger on camera.
Style:
Reem Acra strapless dress showcased Mo’nique’s bust and shoulder line elegantly and really pulled together Mo’s flawless hair, .makeup and jewels.
Monique blew usual style-star presenter Nicole Kidman right out of the water; proving bigger girls dress great too!
Style tip;
Are you considered America’s nosrmal sized women? Don’t “tent” your body in by covering yourself up. Take note from Mo’nique’s red carpet look. Show more skin.
Style has no size.
