Jennifer English wore this dress to the BAFTA awards this year and I can't figure out how it works. It looks like her head is backwards. It's such a strange mindfuck and I couldn't find anyone talking about it.

I hope she does a live stream soon so that I can ask her. It's driving me crazy.

It looks like her head is backwards because her relatively flat chest is accentuated by the deep cut.

This is what I think as well, but why is her chest completely featureless almost like a body suit? It's is really unlike any human chest I've ever seen. Photoshop i guess

Her chest looks like that in all the videos and other photos as well. Maybe she has a great make-up artist who made the transition from cloth to skin seamless.

Lots of double sided tape.

It's just a deep cut in front which is usually reserved for the back of dresses. Her breasts are also not supported, so they're laying flat and off to the side, especially with her arms out away from her body in that pose and the angle of the shot. They're taped to the dress, so they don't pop out and that flattens them even more. It's making her chest look flat like a back usually looks.

Not my style, but Ive seen plenty of dresses with cuts down to the waist like that in the past on celebs or models.
