Reese Witherspoon shines on the red carpet in Jason Wu

Do the paparazzi ever catch Reese Witherspoon not looking lovely and ladylike? Even when she’s going to or from the gym, she looks classy and put together, so when it’s time to face the press on the red carpet, it’s no doubt that she looks every inch the movie star. At the premiere for her latest film “Water for Elephants,” Reese took to the press line in a lace-embroidered Jason Wu cocktail dress.

I like a lot of things about this look, most importantly that it’s very much in line with Witherspoon’s personal style, but something about the cut is bothering me. In these photos, it seems as though the dress was supposed to have something of a bubble hem, but it just looks uneven and bunched-up. I’m not sure if that’s just the angle, a result of an unforgiving car ride to the premiere or simply not a great example of Wu’s tailoring capabilities, but whatever it is, I wish it had been worked out before Reese hit the carpet.
