  No we do not. And what’s the point of putting up pics like this sometimes? Its just going to fuel some really ugly comments that’ll take an ill-advised fashion choice and turn it into a way to insult her physical flaws… No matter what, she has a unique sound and is still ybf to me…

  I think she looks fab. This is a fresh take on all that sequence that we’ve seen throughout the fall. The hair, accessories, and shoes compliment the outfit so I have no complaints. I love to see women push the buttons of fashion in their own unique way:) Two snaps girl!

  Looks like she super-glued an ostrich to one of granny’s church sweater vests. Me no likely. And…I know she refuses to give in to changing her image for the sake of staying true to herself but…for the love of good…GET A RETAINER, SOME BRACES, VISIT A DENTIST!!

  bress would have been nice if she didnt have all those feathers on it. but than she is from britain and thats how they do. they have there own dress game goin on out there. went there once and thought i was in a twilight zone or another planet because they dress so different than the rest of the world. They do have taste and uniqueness and style though got to give them that. but just not feeling this outfit. go in side take the feathers off, make it a mini and come again. (maybe it will be too short)

  i dont like the dress but estelle’s fab. we go to the same hair dresser in London. She is incredibly down to earth at sometimes she assists the hairdresser( who is one of her best friends) by towel drying people’s hair or sitting at the till when she is short staffed….Now thats humility…You guys have no idea how big she is over here….
  
  But thats still an ugly dress that does her no favours though.
  
  Big up London!!!!

  *wondering to myself if all these ppl who commented on Estelles teeth and body are flawless beings*..I dig this chic because she look likes like the average girl with some umph..shes not running around with surgery-perfected teeth (ALOT of celebs have their teeth removed and re-aligned or have false teeth) and lacefronts..SO WHAT. Needless to say..I dig the look…fashion is all about taking risk.

  WOW, WHO ARE WE TO JUDGE OTHERS! WE ALL HAVE FLAWS! ALL OF US…EVEN IF HER TEETH ARE JACKED UP, LET HER SMILE..SHE IS STILL A BEAUTIFUL BLACK WOMAN! HER TEETH DON’T MAKE HER! HER VOICE AND HOW SHE CARRIES HERSELF SHOULD BE ALL THAT WE REALLY CARE ABOUT!

  i love the look. it’s eclectic, just like Estelle–and it’s working for her.
  
  the person who made the unsavory comments about her teeth needs to go sit down somewhere. this is a real chick who is doing her own thing, and being rewarded for it. i’d love to see how the commentator would look in this same picture and outfit…but wait, oh! they’re not famous…

  Unfortunately that was the first thing I saw (those knees looking a little ashey!) Let’s just hope it was the lighting from the camera. Other than that the dress doesn’t bother me and I’m loving the YSL shoes in bronze metallic!

  I think she looks great. The problem I have is with her teeth. In today’s society TEETH shouldn’t look like that.I don’t think that has anything with being flawless. In her video I can’t stop looking at her teeth and its such a nice video.
