Did you watch the Tony Awards the other day?
There were a lot of actors who attended the event, but the one celeb who really stood out for me (apart from uber hot Jake Gyllenhaal) was Sienna Miller. Scarlett Johansson was also there, but although she did wear a pair of exquisite Saint Laurent pumps, her dress wasn’t as noteworthy (sad to say).
Sienna, on the other hand, chose a one-of-a-kind look that included a form-fitting coral pink strapless frock from Burberry finished with nude pointy pumps and a flower-decorated updo. It was a slightly unusual mix — sophistication injected with a little bit of bohemian drama. But what actually threw me off was the length of her dress. It was a midi, and it just didn’t look right. Check out Sienna below, and tell me what you think.

Well, what are your thoughts? Does Sienna look smashing in the dress, or could she have done better? Hot or lukewarm?
No doubt she looks beautiful. And I actually like how the frock fits her. It’s quite a pretty dress, too — except that it has a really unflattering hemline, and anyone who is not a supermodel will most likely look short in that piece. Had the dress been a few inches shorter or longer (floor length), she would have scored a perfect hit. Would you agree?
Sienna’s Burberry frock isn’t available online yet, but if you feel like channeling her style, you may do so with any of the pink strapless dresses below from Amazon. If you think you can sport a midi, go ahead. But if you’re petite, I highly recommend you get one that’s short or one that reaches the floor.
