OK...I was shopping on Oxford Street in January. The Star Wars dresses were in one of Selfridge's (huge)main windows (for men/foreigners
, Selfridges is *probably* the most important/influential department store in England). There was a Luke Skywalker dress that was particularly striking, but women (of all ages/stations) were queuing up to have their photograph taken in front of all the dresses.
Queuing up. So obviously they captured the attention of us XX chromosome types.
I remember thinking...those are SO INCONGRUOUS AND FUNNY...but where could I wear one? Does Comic Con even have a formal night?
So I DO find it credible that a woman could find the dresses striking and would think...hey, the Oscars...that's probably one of the FEW places I could wear that Yoda dress.
I think WB is in a bit of a Calpurnia situation here (as
@Bolna tried to describe). Caesar's wife has to be more than just not guilty in FACT, she also has APPEAR not guilty of any shenanigans. And this was at the very least, bad timing.
One woman's opinion only. But I tell you now (and you married men know this already
)...if a woman wants a special frock, she's going to find somewhere to wear it in order to justify its purchase.
