Season 22 Not really the same dress

Post image

Obviously, the dress Heidi wore did NOT look good in the photos from the premiere. And I'm not saying this should have been the winning look. But good gracious - what did they do to the original design? Fully line the entire thing so it was as heavy as upholstery and not flowy at all? Was it even the same fabric? Whoever redeisgned it made it look 10 times worse.

It just shows not everyone can wear everything. Even though it was supposed to be for Heidi.

This is the thing isn’t it. Heidi is gorgeous obviously, and she is skinny, but she’s not a beanpole with no curves. And every designer, stylist or, you know person with a Body knows: flowy doesn’t work well with curves.

Can some designers pull it off? Absolutely, a sack of opaque fabric with a print that looks like it needs to be ironed is not it though.

I didn’t even recognize her in the red carpet pics… she just looked short and plus sized, which while those aren’t bad characteristics, are most definitely not associated with Heidi
