Why Kimberly’s Grand Prix look didn’t work
Though Kimberly Guilfoyle’s look for the Monaco Grand Prix is far from her worst, the designer ensemble features some questionable fashion decisions. For starters, the crop top and pencil skirt pairing was super trendy in the early 2010s, with the combo being popularized by Kim Kardashian and sported by several celebs. So, while the two silhouettes aren’t completely off-limits, the pairing feels outdated while its association with Kim K gives Guilfoyle a trend-chasing vibe reminiscent of the Mar-A-Lago plastic surgery trend.
The former Fox associate also amplifies the cropped element of the outfit by selecting a bralette-style top with no sleeves. In addition to this being an unconventional choice for a political figure, the overall proportions of the outfit feel off as a result. We would’ve preferred to see the top paired with a longer pencil skirt to make the asymmetrical build of the outfit feel more purposeful. Length aside, we’re not convinced the satin fabric of the skirt was the most practical choice for an F1 race. It likely only got more wrinkled as the day went on, which doesn’t help with the fast fashion allegations.
