Jen Aniston - pretty in pink?

Not according to fashion critics.

The actress, 41, mixed up her red carpet look Sunday at the Paris premiere of The Bounty Hunter, stepping out in a pink silk strapless Christian Lacroix Haute Couture gown.

But StyleList.com called it a prom dress "gone bad ... We're just not that into it, Jen."

An E! News fashion critic wrote that "as much as we think mixing it up is better than playing it safe, sometimes taking a risk can go awry and, well, this one did."

So why didn't it work?

"To pull off a Lacroix gown, you need tons of attitude, otherwise the dress wears you rather than you wearing the dress, which is precisely what's happening in this case," according to uk.stylelist.com. "Considering her gorgeous gams, we're surprised Aniston would pick a dress that hides most of her figure and generally doesn't look very flattering. Also, while a bold colour can look like too much if you have a dramatic hairstyle and tons of accessories, Jen's minimal makeup and pony tail just don't look high-impact enough."

    The dress didn't work for her at all. She didn't look confident in it. The color would have work in different cut dress that worked for her body.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, she looks like she's pregnant and she should stick to black, that is really the only color that she looks good in

    hate it!

    The top part is gorgeous, but the length of the dress is truly awkward. I think it could've been gorgeous if it hit right above her knee. The color and bodice is really exquisite.

    Comes a time when the tanning starts to age rather than give a healthy glow. jen is beautiful she needs to make adjustment so she doesn't look leathery!The dress looks like a floppy salmon was thrown and she caught it in her apron. Understyled hair, shh your over 40 we all know it!

    Too much fabric in the front. I doubt anyone could have carried off this dress.

    This not the best pic of the dress...and this isn't the real color of the dress...it looks much better in other pictures. Not my favorite Jen dress, but unusual and she kind of has a gypsy look which I dig.
