‘She Has Better Taste than THAT!’: Fans React to Carrie Underwood Showing Legs in High-Slit Metallic Dress -

Carrie Underwood has sparked an online stir with her high-slit metallic outfit that left her legs on display. Although public opinion regarding the star’s dress ranged from critique to praise, the commentary did not take away from the prestige of the event Underwood attended, where she celebrated a friend’s major milestone.

Iconic musician Carrie Underwood served looks at the Songwriters Hall of Fame Induction and Awards Gala on June 13. Wearing a unique and eye-catching metallic dress, Underwood left jaws dropping to the floor as she posed on the red carpet alongside fellow friends and artists in the music industry. However, not everybody was impressed by what she wore.

Dazzling in an all-silver look, Underwood adorned a bespoke sleeveless metallic bodice attached to a striking skirt. Rouched and bunched up in the front, the lower half of her dress left her toned legs exposed while the back of the dress draped to the floor.

The majority of AmoMama readers felt that Underwood’s look was lackluster and unflattering. “Surely, she has better taste than THAT!!!” exclaimed one of our readers.

Another commented, “The dress is not flattering,” while someone who was completely taken aback wrote, “What was she thinking?” Diverting their focus on how Underwood’s legs looked, an AmoMama reader asserted, “She should hide those legs is all I can say.” Echoing the sentiment another chimed in with, “Not pretty legs!”

Amid the critique Underwood received, however, some readers came to her defense, complimenting her appearance, including her legs. “Strongest legs in country music,” one commended, and another simply gushed, “Beautiful ❤️.”

Regardless of what some may think of Underwood’s look, specifically as it pertains to her metallic dress, the garment appears to be popular as the same design has been worn before, by a model.
