Outfit
I fell in love with Raquel from El Sueño de Morfeo's beautiful yellow dress. It complimented her skin tone perfectly and gave her a sweet, bohemian feminine look. And a special mention must go to her hair, which is pretty much the hairstyle I wore all the way through high school.
On the other hand, we have Swedish comedienne and host of this year's contest, Petra Mede, whose dress from one of the two semi finals speaks for itself. I love Petra, but seriously, this is hideous. Toilet roll holder, anybody?

Effort
Well, we've all seen the wacky costumes of the past (Ukraine 2007, I'm looking at you) and this year saw its fair share of craziness, but there were a couple of people who made genuine effort. I kind of feel that Aliona from Moldova somehow managed to stand out with her crazy light show dress, yet at the same time not look tacky (until it turned into a fire-themed dress, that is). I'm not sure about the La Roux-esque hair, but somehow it all just works.
The 'oh dears'
Oh, Amandine, I know your song was supposed to be all arty and full of angst, but would it have been so hard to brush your hair? And as for the leather-look dress, well, I have no words.
And finally, we have Moje 3 from Serbia, who are evidently really into the pastel trend. Either that, or they got lost en route to perform at a little girl's birthday party. This is definitely a case of 'less is more', unless you want to look like a sweet shop worker pantomime character.
Did you watch Eurovision this year? Which styles caught your eye? Let me know in the comments below!

Hi :)
ReplyDeleteI personally loved Emmelie's dress and styling. I loved Raquel's dress as well, and I adored those of the backing singers from Bulgaria. Zlata Ognevich's dress was pretty as well I thought, and I loved her hair.
My least favorite dresses were Alyona's (Belarus), Margaret Berger's (Norway) and Moran's (Israel). And I agree on Petra Mede's dress. She was a good host, but that dress, seriously? I didn't like any of the dresses she wore though.
I liked Emmelie's styling too, but I didn't think it was anything too special. I also agree about Zlata's hair :)
