Style Shrinks: Our experts analyse Jerry Hall's 'Lynchian' nightmare of an outfit
The hair/make-up
Gemma Hayward: I like the fluffy texture and loose wave to her hair; it's a welcome distraction from the fashion faux pas beneath.
Hugh Montgomery: Well, if she will insist on such an elegantly natural look, then it's no wonder her tenure on Strictly Come Dancing came to such an abrupt end.
The accessories
Gemma: If you've draped yourself in leopard print and silk, why not go ahead and add to the tackiness and accessorise with fishnet tights, right? Wrong.
Hugh: But that's a perfectly pleasant bead necklace, if hardly a full set of rock stars: more Joss Stone's than Rolling Stones, to bleed the analogy dry.
The outfit
Gemma: I'm pretty sure this outfit is designer, but that doesn't mean she's wearing it well. I know it's easy to say she looks like Bet Lynch. But she does. Just add up-do and cigarette.
Hugh: Yes, Lynchian, indeed – though we do appreciate the opportunity to re-configure that adjective.
The shoes
Gemma: Did Dick Whittington not need his shoes tonight?
Hugh: Painful-looking square-toes and big elvish buckles make these a Grimm option.
