You may have missed Rita Wilson’s Golden Globes gown, overshadowed as it was by so many other beautiful dresses, but I don’t think it would be possible to overshadow her boobs. I discovered them thanks to a tweet from Mary Marino of Flashionista. According to Mary, “Gravity doesn’t seem to be on her side. That’s just what happens when we get older, sigh.“
Do you agree? I may be overly optimistic here, but I think it’s just a matter of the right bra, and this dress doesn’t give her the chance to wear one. I don’t think she could have successfully worn this dress even 20 years ago (although I’m still trying to find a picture to compare. Please share if you find one!).

Of course, you may think she looks fabulous in this dress, and I’m sure her husband does. Here’s one more observation that struck me today: Rita Wilson doesn’t care what we think about her boobs in this dress. She posted this picture of it on Twitter. There were no angst-ridden tweets about looking saggy. She was too caught up in the excitement of the Golden Globes. And that’s where we need to be as well–caught up in the excitement of living.
By the way, she’s going to be in The Good Wife on February 15. She tweeted a picture from the episode that I post after the jump. Big difference. Where’d the boobs go?

I think she looks fabulous. All the power to her for wearing that dress!
You are so affirming. @tanyasnarks on twitter said the same thing. I'm beginning to think there's a lot more leeway in how to dress than I've ever given myself.
Oh. And Carissa Brown educated me via tweet that "when younger, she didn't look busty. Boobs tend to get bigger as hormones shift and she seems to like that!"
Ha! It's not just age that causes sagging. I've always been saggy and it is masked by a good bra. But my mom once saw me naked when I was sixteen and said I looked like an old woman. 🙁
I love your sense of humor, Aamba. I took myself way too seriously when I was 16. If my mom had said that to me then, I wouldn't have talked to her for three days.
Oh, believe me, I was very upset. At that age I was self-conscious and miserable and hated myself and thought I was ugly. It still stings that she said that, but as you noticed, I've learned to laugh about things that upset me!
She looks fab in that dress! She would look weird if her boobs were floating up.
