It’s easy to recognize a Self-Portrait dress when you see one. The unique use of lace and the see-through elements point out this brand, which draws so many celebrities to their dresses.

Recently, we spotted two famous personalities in the same Self-Portrait scalloped edge midi dress. Holland Roden is 5ft 3 (160 cm) tall, while Olivia Palermo is 5ft 5 (165.1 cm).

The average American woman’s height is approximately 5ft 4 inches (162.6 cm), which means that Holland Roden is slightly shorter than the average American woman, while Olivia Palermo is slightly taller. Who do you think wore it better?

The Teen Wolf actress rocked the dress with Christian Louboutin Debout 100 Croco Lucido pumps and a black clutch. She capped it off with burgundy lips and a messy updo.

2. Olivia Palermo’s Elegant Take on the Self-Portrait Dress at 5ft 5

Self-Portrait shared this photo of the style-savvy socialite in the same dress. She wore it with a similar-colored pair of pumps and a beehive half ponytail.

Both ladies wore the dress well, but Olivia took it up a notch with her high-fashion styling. That messy beehive worked in downplaying the saccharine sweetness of the lace dress.

Many might think this dress is too much with its lace material and see-through bodice, but it’s actually a nice transition piece. The color is perfect for the upcoming fall season.
