Oh, Peggy. What are we going to do with you?
Elisabeth Moss at the 2011 Olivier Awards in a Roksanda Ilincic gown.
While we would LOVE to tell you she's in London because she's starring in tryouts for the new musical salute Beige! where she sings such soon-to-be musical classics as "I Enjoy Being a Girl Who's All One Color," and "People (Who Need Purple)," but alas, she's there because she's currently in the play "The Children’s Hour" at the Comedy Theatre along with Keira Knightley and we have to admit that actually sounds like good casting.
We just don't get this chick anymore. Looking at this getup (and we can't believe we're about to type this), we have a newfound respect for Jennifer Aniston, who also constantly goes out wearing dresses that look like they were made from her own skin and makeup made from her ground-up fingernails and somehow manages to look (slightly) better than Lizzie here, who always looks like the entire concept of "depression" manifested on the red carpet in a dress. This just makes her look like she's still in the "sitting in sweats on the couch eating Chubby Hubby" portion of the post-breakup phase. Beige hair, beige dress, beige purse and - this is where we really have to salute her commitment to beige - beige eyeshadow. If she stood on a beach, she'd look like two eyes floating in mid-air. In fact, we're kind of surprised she isn't wearing beige contacts here.
Getting off the color train for a moment, we think the dress is kind of interesting, but it's also kind of boxy and unflattering on her. A belt or sash (IN A COLOR, PLEASE), would help define her waist here. Also, what the hell is going on with her beige hair? If you're going to wear you hair like that, with the top brushed and pinned back while the sides hang down like cocker spaniel ears (and no, we don't recommend wearing your hair like that), then at least make sure your color is consistent. The top of her head is an entirely different color than the rest of it. From a distance, it almost looks like she took a risk and put a jaunty little BROWN hat on her head.
Lizzy, honey. You've got such a shayna punim and no one can see it because no one can see YOU, dear. We're begging you to look into color. It doesn't have to be a vibrant jewel tone or a neon yellow; just a little bit of anything to prevent you from looking like skinless chicken breast on the RC. Until then, we're forced to continue giving you OUTs, dear. And we love Peggy too much for that.
