Kate Beckinsale didn’t receive much love for her quirky, baby doll minidress and boots look this week. The actress, 51, has been making headlines for her appearances at the Venice Film Festival, where so far, fans have deemed her fashion choices a flop.
Having raised eyebrows on the red carpet in a peach glitter getup that went down the corset route, Kate was back for more, this time slipping her slender frame into a tiny minidress teamed with the chunkiest ever pair of platform biker boots. Users reacting on The Daily Mail instantly slammed the look, with one user saying that Kate “looks ridiculous.”
Kate Beckinsale Turns Heads With Quirky Minidress Style
Rocking a boho-inspired look in pink, Kate sent out girly vibes in her leggy, segmented minidress.
Affording a stitched, patchwork finish, the Pearl Habor star flashed her super-slim legs while allowing the dress to swathe her upper body, but there was plenty more to look at down below.
Adding a massive, buckled pair of boots in black leather, Kate channeled biker chic vibes in her chunky footwear, choosing brand Dolls Kill as she put a new spin on film festival glam. Wearing dark shades, the actress sported her highlighted locks swept up, completing her look with a black hair bow, multiple pendant necklaces, and rings. Kate’s outing came in the wake of her amfAR Gala appearance.
Told She ‘Looks Ridiculous’
The Daily Mail‘s comments filled up fast. Noting the actress’ recent weight loss and changing appearance, one fan exclaimed: “Kate Beckinsale doesn’t even look like Kate Beckinsale anymore!”
“I used to love Kate. She’s very pretty but so dated and skinny looking now, not a good look,” a second wrote, with a third making a beeline for her chunky boots. “Those boots just look ridiculous,” the user said, with over 150 others upvoting the comment. Fans also suggested that Kate was suffering a “mid-life crisis” as they shaded her.
Kate has made headlines for both losing weight and addressing why she’s slimmed down. In a world full of Kim Ks and Ozempic rumors, the actress was assumed to have lost weight for vanity reasons, but she set the record straight this summer after a skinny-shaming fan told her to do some “squats.”
“No, actually, I watched my stepfather die quite shockingly, my mother has stage 4 cancer and I lost a lot of eight from stress and grief…,” she began, adding:
“Quite quickly and then I was in hospital for six weeks because the grief had burned a hole in my esophagus, which made me vomit copious amounts of blood, and I found eating very hard…”
