When I saw this article, I thought it was so appropriate for a gender and cultures blog. In this picture, Jennifer Lawrence is clearly underdressed. Apparently it was 49 degrees when this photo was taken for a photo-call in London. The image went viral and started a conversation on social media with some criticizing the fact that she was not wearing a coat like the men, others defending her choice to wear what she wants, and others blaming her stylist.
This is how Lawrence responded to the criticism on Facebook:
While I don’t think that even she believes that wearing the dress was a simple choice because she “loves fashion,” I also don’t think she realizes the depths of sociological issues discernible from this one photo. What are your opinions?
