"I loved it, but felt it maybe wasn't enough bling-y or flashy enough for DWTS. But the hair and the makeup I die for. I felt like it was very Giselle. We even pulled up a photo of her hair like that from the Met Ball! This is one of my favorite looks and I want to wear it again.
As for a preference between long or short dresses, I'm liking long gowns at the moment. Right now I feel that my body is at its worst even though I'm at my thinnest because I'm not working out as much since it's hard to balance football and this. When I'm really on it and working out and doing Pilates, I don't mind wearing the cocktail dresses. I just tried on a super-short dress and did not feel comfortable about myself, but, yeah, when I'm working out, I like showing my legs."
Week 4
Dress by David Koma; Jewelry by David Yurman
Lee Harris, Erin's stylist: "David is one of my favorite young designers because his dresses are really fitted, sophisticated but young and body-conscious, and he knows how to do a great body cutout. I wish more stores would pick him up. He's incredible. This dress was tough because you can't really sit down in it, and it came in a sad beige color, so we dyed it a rosy pink."
Erin: "And then I moved my arm like five minutes before the show, and it ripped. But it was gorgeous! And it only ripped because we dyed it and it changed the texture of the dress. The hair was a last-minute thing. I think I was going to do it down, but I kept pulling it back. And Denise [Bolanowski, hair stylist], who always wants to do fun J.Lo hair, wanted to pull it back more and I was like, No! I can't pull it off, I'm not J.Lo,' but it ended up being one of my favorite looks."
