It’s unknown if Ellie Goulding looked at herself in the mirror after putting on her black Dolce & Gabbana lace dress, but if she did, she should buy a new mirror. A new stylist would also help.

The 26-year-old singer wore the lace dress over high-waisted underwear and a black bra. If Ellie was going for shock value, she failed as her ensemble paled compared to the outfits worn by Iggy Azalea and Miley Cyrus.

The outfit was completed with neutral makeup, her signature wavy hairstyle, and black t-bar patent leather pumps.
