Is this Dancing with the Stars champ's built-in accessory too '80s for your tastes?

At first glance, we didn't realize that was a bow on the front of Stacy Keibler's stunning deep purple gown.

It sort of just looks like a dramatic sweetheart neckline, especially considering the solid color. But the minute we realized it was all tied up in a bow, our minds went straight to the '80s—the era where giant bows reigned supreme.

In this case though, the Zac Posen design feels more cleverly constructed and modern than over-the-top and outdated. Plus, the fishtail shape on the gown's skirt is so gorgeous that we could forget the top altogether. 

Looks like we've been duped by high design yet again, making Stacy's look a winner in our book. Now, what's your say?
