Daisy Lowe’s Formal Rugby Stripes

Daisy Lowe showed up at the GQ Men of the Year Awards wearing a dress printed with the kind of stripes usually reserved for tank tops, rugby jerseys, and Tim Burton costumes. She generously freed the pattern from the constrictions of casualwear by splashing it across an evening gown with a mermaidlike pooled hem.

Do you like her sporty take on formalwear? Or are the sweatshirt-gray stripes best left for the gym?
