Style Trial: Cheryl Cole

I normally adore Cheryl’s style – in fairness to her, she rarely puts a foot wrong when it comes to her fashion choices.


This dress though, is a step too far in the futuristic fashion stakes, and not a good choice for Cheryl. While she does rock a good quirky look from time to time, I think she’s best going ultra-glam and girly.


This unusual, fan-style frock was a risky choice which I felt didn’t pay off. The cut of the dress is really unflattering, two fans attached to the neck with a black collar, and a weird stomach baring cut-out bit in the middle.


Over-the-knee boots are all the rage at the moment, and I think they could have worked a lot better if the rest of the outfit had been simpler.


Her lovely locks were scraped back so as not to detract from the busy neckline, and hoop earrings were the only accessory she deployed.


What do you make of this outfit? Is it a ‘sack the stylist’ moment?!

I Think Cheryl looks fabulous in this dress. I think she probably got bored of wearing her hair down, the same way, week in, week out. I think it shows how confident she is with herself and her look that she can experiment like this

When did Cheryl see this and say 'Wow, this is a gorgeous dress. I should wear this?'

I have to say I actually like the dress and for me, it was the boots that took it a bit too far. Simple pumps or heels would have looked at lot better.

i think Cheryl could look a lot nicer! her dress looked horrible when she was sitting down - you could just see 2 discs. But when she was standing up it looked OK.

horrendous...enough said! it looked like if she moved her arms forward she would get a nasty cut on her arms from the 'discs'!

I think Cheryl looked amazing in this dress!!! At least she had the courage to wear it and be different plus Beyonce wore it a week later at the EMAs!! Cant have been that bad if 2 style icons wore similar dresses!!!
