Yay or Nay? Thandie Newton in Roberto Cavalli at Lavender Trust 10th Anniversary, London

You would be forgiven for thinking that Thandie Newton is wearing Matthew Williamson here. After all, does she wear anything else? (I'm just jealous!) But in a surprising move, the actress was spotted at the Lavender Trust 10th anniversary bash last night in a design by Roberto Cavalli, from his A/W '08 collection. In true Cavalli form, there is a lot going on in this dress - sequins, sheer mesh, floral, there is also a touch of hippy boho in the skirt section. It is an unusual piece and one that most stars would probably steer clear of, but does Thandie do it justice?

Yay or Nay? Thandie Newton in Roberto Cavalli at Lavender Trust 10th Anniversary, London - Comments

  • The top half of the dress looks gorgeous on her, but somehow the bottom half of it seems to fall flat.

  • Kate

    It didn't work on he catwalk and looks even worse on Thandie. She is so pretty. Why does she do this to herself. She looks like she is wearing an ill fitting nightie!

  • Katie

    shes got the figure and gorgeous coloured skin for it so I say YAY

  • Franki

    Yeah, as aja said, it's a dress that very few people could get away with, but she looks gorgeous in it.

  • Ellen

    The dress it self looks alright but Thandie looks amazing in it.
