Quinta Brunson turned heads at the Monday, January 15, Emmys in a custom pink Dior haute couture dress — but not everyone was a fan of the look.

After the popular fashion credits Instagram account @checkthetag posted the 34-year-old actress’ outfit details that same night, critics took to the comments to voice their opinions.

“I just can’t get behind the intentional wrinkle trend. Beautiful colour, terrible wrinkles,” wrote one commenter as a second shared, “I’m sorry but this is a huge miss. Love her and her stylist but rumpled fabric on the red carpet will never read anything other than a mess.”

Brunson’s stylist, Jessica Paster, swiftly replied to the comments in defense of the red carpet look.
