Unleashed: Stevie's Maroon Frock

[desertangel]

I'm starting this thread in appreciation of Stevie's "color other than black" outfit she's wearing on the Unleashed tour -

For all the grumbling I've read about Stevie's WMB (Wears Mostly Black) wardrobe on recent tours, the maroon frock hasn't gotten much publicity from her fan base...

whaswrong?

nobody like it?

I think it's a fabulous outfit. I love that the boots match. It's a rich color that looks wonderful against her skin and with her hair. The way the skirt is gathered reminds me of the cover of OSOTM. I really like it... it's a great switch from the layered apron skirts we've seen for years. She's been adding a few of those to her wardrobe. They photograph well and I think they make her look slimmer. Is it a velvet corset? There was another tour where she wore a red outfit... was that the Time iteration of the band or was it OSOTM tour?

Anyway... I'm interested to know if anyone else is loving that outfit as much as I am...

....and wishing she would put it up for charity auction so I can place the winning bid and get a second job to pay for it.

Yes she looks awesome. She had a kind of rennaissance with her wardrobe during her CV tour. I will never forget seeing her with that white frilly skirt thing and the top hat belting out rock n roll from the foot of the stage.

BTW I think her and Lindsey had some give and take issues on this tour. I believe that he agreed to let her be a bit more flamboyant with her clothes if she keeps the performance toned down.

Yes, seeing Stevie in this burgundy red dress is so refreshing. Kudos to Stevie for finally bringing out some color

I'll have to go back through and check my posts, but i think i've said i LOVE LOVE LOVE the red dress about TEN TIMES.

Personally I think she's looking absolutely amazing and beautiful. ♥ The dress itself reminds of one of the ones she wore for Soundstage, but it was a black one then. ... I wish she would wear a corset with laces for once!

I adore this one.

She looks fabulous. Honestly she should just wear this for the entire show.

I think it is awesome that she looks so hot at 60 years old. She, frankly, looks sexier here then she did six years ago during the SYW tour. And these are years when, I think, people tend to really start to show their age. It helps that she lost some weight and is wearing much more fabulous clothing. I really hope they tape this tour for a DVD or something.

Frankly, who cares what she sings up there when she looks so damn great this time around?

I'm not to admit I like the way her little set (o)(o) is looking this tour...compact and cute IMO

would you wear it?

i love it too
i love the pink duster shawl thing she brought out in on the 2nd leg of the SYW tour. she needs a pale pink [satin ] outfit
i think that would be hot
any color really, in this style
much nicer and fitted and flattering than her grandma get up @ the beginning on SYW ooooooh lordy

Maybe if we started accusing her of being a witch again en masse, perhaps she will be intimidated into ditching the black frocks again.

I adore the burgundy dress. I think she looks fabulous in it and is very refreshing. But I have to say I"m very disappointed in everything she"s wearing after she changes out of the burgundy. Its the same old black layered on top of more black. Heavy fabrics, not much glitter except for the the Silver Springs top and very few shawls. And I really hoped she"d wear something new for GDW. If she has to do that song over and over again, at least wear something new. Sorry for the negativity, I just think she could try a little bit harder in making her wardrobe choices more varied and interesting.

I have been thinking about this: I think she is trying to keep it as low key as possible. She seems like she is trying to paint a very serious mood. Maybe she is actually unleashing her demons and trying to discover if doing this is still something she wants to do.

As for the outifts... I dig the fingerless gloves for Storms. Initially, I thought she was wearing only one glove, lol. The maroon number? Awesome. LOL I noticed that her boots are the same color so girl went SHOPPING! LOL

I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE the maroon dress!! Even though its the same style as her black dress but a diff. color I'm just excited its a different color and she looks AWESOME in it
