Lena Dunham: The Anti-Chic Chick? An Analysis

Now that the clamor of the 2014 Golden Globe Awards has died down, the winners celebrated, the losers consoled, and the ratings accounted for, now is the time to sit down and assess the events of the weekend and what they really mean.

Enter fashion faux pas galore.

Enter Lena Dunham.

Enter The Anti-Chic Chick.

Lena Dunham is a voice of her generation. The question, however, is...

Who's listening?

Lena and her sartorial choices have landed her on Worst Dressed lists the past few seasons and it has becomes a given that her name is always thrown calamitously into the mix.

So much so, in fact, that many people are beginning to wonder if Lena Dunham is intentionally sartorially schizophrenic or is she a part of the Anti-Chic Chick Movement? Now that Lena is firmly entrenched in Hollywood via hit show Girls, she has yet to attain the kind of adoration fitting of someone like a Reese Witherspoon. In other words?

America's Sweetheart, she isn't.

Or is she?

The current hipster movement rails against excess, adopting a boho chic look that works well on the concrete jungles of Anytown, USA.

But the Golden Globes? The Emmys? The SAG Awards?

Hmmmm...

If she wants to continue to placate herself by attempting to dress up, then she needs to go all the way. Because there is really no excuse whatsoever for celebrities that have access to the biggest fashion houses in the world to look like they received their ill-fitting dress as a hand-me down. And that's exactly what Dunham did this weekend, showing off a loud yellow dress that hugged in all the wrong places.

So the question must be asked: is Lena intentionally playing coy with chic-ness? Wearing the couture, but the wrong size, going to the red carpets disheveled, et cetera, or...

Is she so jacked up in her hipster-ness and anti-chicness that she really is clueless when it comes to what's wrong or right sartorially?

Lena's google rankings climbed this week.

So who's winning now?
