I thought she looked stunning and that the dress is amazing.

However, the commentary of this pic, is shocking to me:

Stacy
Like I said in the Worst part. Fat women can not wear light colored dresses. It just shows how fat they really are. This needs to go to the Worst side.

Virginia Nordin
Perhaps the dress should have been black, but it is flattering to her large size. Modestly covering her body.

    That's bull****.

    She looked amazing, the dress was gorgeous. She rocked the hell out of it. Sorry, but she looked a hell of a lot better than most women there, regardless of size.

    If I was watching a show where I heard those comments, I'd have turned it off, then complained to the network.

    I Almost love the dress. She lost me on the sleeves, but the rest is fabulous.

    I pretty much want to punch the commenters in the Tw*t. I think she is beautiful and looked great!

    So, the takeaway is that if you have more than average body fat you can only wear black?? That's cheerful.

    She looks beautiful. I hope she felt beautiful. And I hope she flips Stacy & Virginia the bird.

    I'm not a huge fan of the dress. I don't like the sleeves or the neck line. A V-neck and either no sleeves, or 3/4 length sleeves would make it better. It looks too much like a T-shirt. But this has NOTHING to do with her weight. I think it shows her lovely figure really well.

    my mom called and asked about this dress earlier this morning for my sisters wedding. I told her it is stunning on Octavia and when they produce the knock off version, it will be stunning on my mom, too. It is figure flattering, in my opinion.

    I think she looks absolutely stunning in that dress. Gorgeous.


    Also, It saddens me that Stacy and Virginia are such miserable cows.

    Moo.

    I like it a lot, and I think she looks stunning in it. But furthermore, I wouldn't call her "fat". Outside of Hollywood, nobody would do a doubletake at her size. Perhaps she's not super fit, but she doesn't strike me as looking unhealthy. But maybe I'm biased.

    Angelina wore black and she looked like a starving bag of bones. Octavia looked amazing!

    And the Yahoo Best/Worst dressed gave Octavia an "A" for her dress. I agree with Yahoo! :)

    If anyone should be condemned for what they are wearing, it most certainly shouldn't be Octavia! It should be the lady wearing the circa-1987 shimmerslacks behind her!

    starving bag of bones?

    bashing on skinny/BEAUTIFUL people, like Angelina Jolie is a sign of jealousy...


    But, for the dress...I personally didnt like it too much on her. but, it was a pretty dress!
    Just in my opinion.

    From the boobs down, she looks incredible. I'm also not a fan of the neckline and sleeves.

    I haven't said anything negative about Angelina so far, but I've thought plenty. I'm not jealous of anyone who has arms that look like mine did when I was a 60 pound eleven year old.

    I think Angelina Jolie is beautiful. But there is a difference between skinny and sickly!

    I think she looks stunning, and the dress is really beautiful - although I don't so much like the sleeves.

    She looks like Hollywood Royalty in this dress... It fits her and flatters her in the best ways.

    What was ridiculous was Angelina Jolie's arms... They were like twigs about to break. She needs to eat something... I don't understand what Brad sees in her... The only fat on her body is in her lips. And no, this isn't bashing on her because I am jealous. You couldn't pay me a million bucks to look like her. She looks anorexic.

    And as for the sleeves, I get it. When you got the bingo lady arms...you like to having something covering them up a bit and I think this dress did a great job of hiding the trouble spots and flattering her figure.


    As for the "skinny" jealousy thing...uh no. I appreciate the women in Hollywood and their rocking bods. Angelina looks emaciated. There is a big difference. She was absolutely gorgeous (and my #1 girl crush) a few years and a few pounds ago. Now it looks like she needs help. :frown:

    I'm sorry, but I thought Angelina looked WAY too thin. Her arms are sticks! No muscle definition, nothing but skin and bone. Honestly, she looks like a stick figure and her cheeks are too hollow. All I could think last night when she was presenting that I hope she looks that way for a role and not because she thinks she looks good that thin.

    And yes, Octavia looks fabulous in that dress. The sleeves might have been nicer, true, but the woman definitely dressed in a way that flattered her body type.

    I can't believe that Stacy person called her fat.
