Style Shrinks: Our experts analyse Kelis's Morticia-goes-Walford get-up
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The top
Gemma: A kaftan? Really? Someone should have pointed out to her that a) she's not on the beach and b) it's not very nice.
Hugh: Extending the Gothic theme, this top is totally what Morticia Addams would wear when attempting kooky, but not particularly creepy, mysterious or spooky.
The Hair/make-up
Gemma Hayward: This hairdo isn't going to bring all the boys to the yard. In fact, she looks more like the bride of Frankenstein than a sexy songstress.
Hugh Montgomery: Come on, this 'do is worthy of Elsa Lanchester herself.
The trousers
Gemma: I'm all for leather trousers – but how can they be expected to look half-decent when teamed with that mustard monstrosity?
Hugh: Sorry, from a young age, we have seen leather trousers and struggled to have any thoughts beyond "Ross from Friends".
The boots
Gemma: I know I'm going on about it, but sturdy leather boots don't go with a kaftan. Actually, NOTHING goes with a kaftan.
Hugh: You might well think that this boot/trouser combo is a bit Kat Slater: the Early Years, but I couldn't possibly comment. (LOVING the new House of Cards, BTW.)
