These “Bravo Insider” photos highlighted all the women’s blue gowns, though Gizelle Bryant’s—of course—garnered extra attention from critics.

Regardless, though, supporters were definitely in the minority.
People didn’t completely leave Gizelle high and dry, though, as one user pointed out that she’s “so close yet so far away.” Another person said, while the dress is “ridiculous,” it nonetheless “works.”
