Two fashionable ladies, Cheryl Fernandez-Versini and Kerry Washington, both wore a dress that is quite tricky to pull off. We’re talking about the Adam Lippes tuxedo dress:

I mean, how do you wear a dress that looks like a blazer? We’re about to find out with these celebrities:
1. Kerry Washington

This dress was first spotted on the ‘Scandal’ actress. She wore it with a pair of black pumps and what looks like a lacey bra peeking from the dress.
2. Cheryl Fernandez-Versini

The singer pulled the look off flawlessly by wearing it with a contrasting pair of red Gianvito Rossi “Portofino” sandals, classic pearl earrings and a sleek bun.
It’s apparent that Cheryl won this round. Kerry’s attempt at racy with that lace bra is bordering on lame. That hairstyle needs to go too! The X Factor judge, on the other hand, exuded elegance and managed to make this dress look very classy. We also love the pop of red – perfect accent for a summer look.
Apparently, the tuxedo dress is a growing fashion trend. If you can’t get your hands on the same one, here are some alternatives from Amazon you can try so you can sport the same look:
1. Rachel Zoe Tuxedo Dress, $425.00
2. Stone Cold Fox Rex Blazer Dress, $385.00
