Should Colin Firths wife Livia rethink her biscuit-flashing sculptural dress?

As you know, I am quite enamored with Colin Firth. I love him, unabashedly. He’s talented and tall and handsome in an increasingly accessible way – like, he’s getting kind of jowly and he looks like he never diets. It’s adorable. One of my favorite things about Colin is his wife, Livia Giuggioli. I like that she’s age-appropriate – she’s 41 to his 50. I like that she’s smart – she writes for Vogue, she’s involved in environmental-fashion causes, and she runs her own business. I love that she’s incredibly beautiful, but she doesn’t look worked on or plastic in any way. Mostly, I just like the way they look at each other. They seem like they still love each other dearly.

What I don’t love, however, is this dress. This dress is travesty. These are photos of Colin and Livia at the London Critics’ Circle Awards, where Colin took home another best Actor trophy. It wasn’t some huge awards ceremony where Livia and Colin should be dressed in their evening formalwear. They were allowed to do something business/cocktail, and have a bit more fun with it. But Livia’s dress… God no.

That’s the thing with sculptural dresses. In theory, they can be high-fashion, high-impact, eye-catching statements. But in practice, when you’re at some big event where your husband is being crowned The King of Movies, don’t wear some trapeze dress where it seems like we’re two seconds and a stiff wind away from seeing your biscuits. Pardon me, she’s Italian, so we’ll say that we’re two seconds away from seeing her biscotti.

Bad call, Liv. You better bring it to the Oscars, girl.
