In the caption, the beauty said her look was “dainty and decadent,” and Darby, for her part, kept reminding the people of the new episode. Meanwhile she credited stylist Corey and makeup creator Alondra as the glam squad behind the look and disclosed that the designer of the dress she was wearing is David Koma London. The reality star has constantly made over her style throughout the series, but this particular confessional appearance seems to have brought her closer to the audiences.
Supportive reactions came through rapidly and they were very high. “One of your best confessional looks this season!” remarked one user. Another was even bolder than Emma saying, “This could be your best confessional look ever.” Waves of compliments came and some users were even using current slang to give their approval. One viewer said that she “did eat this one,” which is a commonly used phrase meaning she completely nailed the look.
Even those who had a hard time with Darby were among the first to point out the positives in her look. One user came up with the following: “Oh! So Pretty! I know we’re not on good terms but shorty you ate this lewk. Keep Shining!” The comment seemed to encourage some funny responses, including laughing emoji replies and one person saying they “felt the good energy on this good Sunday!”
Her hairstyle was one among many that got individual comments: “the long blunt bob ohhh lala!” was one person’s take while another was in similar thoughts as the first jokester: “Ok but I really love and miss your natural hair. So so pretty.” The comparison game was also very strong in the comments with many people referring to other celebrities and housewives. “I thought this was Tyra,” one commenter confess, pointing to supermodel Tyra Banks. Another one took note, “Looking like a Gizelle Bryant mini in this look!” while someone connecting the dots between the two remarked, “Wow, just realized Ashley and Dr. Bryant could be sisters.”
A lot of the people who commented were convinced that this was a new fashionista Darby. “today this the Ashley we want! Not that Karen look,” a user said, referring to the previous taste in clothes. Someone else just remarked, “Someone got a stylist,” hinting that a professional stylist had done a miraculous job in changing her look. Compliments continued as before, with expressions coming like “Face Card!”—a reference to her beautiful facial features—and “Hunni!!!!! This look ate down!!!!!”
Since 2016, the year The Real Housewives of Potomac was launched, Darby has been an integral part of the show owing to her personal storylines and connection with the audience through her ever-changing fashion sense. Confessional looks are often points of discussion among viewers who gladly analyze her style choices as the drama happening on the screen. This one in particular seems to have been a high point in her style journey, reminiscent of her stunning appearance at the Preakness event.
The timing of the post—right on the new episode—was another reason for the additional excitement among the show’s loyal fans. “You’re killing the confessionals this season” and “Idk what’s gotten into you but you been chewing these confessional looks all season” are just some of the comments that confirm the fact that Darby’s fashion moments are today here to stay and have become an important part of the viewing experience. One even went as far as to say that her presence was the reason to series the show, “So beautiful gorgeous and very sexy Ashley only reason I series the show pretty lady.”
