Bellamy Young Celebrates Scandal’s 100th Episode in Ethereal Greek-Inspired Dress

In 2012, when “Scandal” initially premiered, Bellamy Young doubted the longevity of her character, Mellie Grant, the First Lady of the United States at the time.

Interestingly, Mellie wasn’t the only cast member worried about the show’s fate. In fact, “Scandal” faced the threat of cancellation.

However, if we fast forward to 2017, six seasons later, “Scandal” had transformed into one of ABC’s highest-rated shows—a remarkable turnaround.

To mark the milestone of reaching 100 episodes, Bellamy Young celebrated at the PaleyFest in Los Angeles by conducting a sit-down interview with the rest of the “Scandal” cast.

Bellamy traded in her vivid and substantial First Lady attire for a graceful and ethereal appearance.

She opted for a flowing Greek-inspired halter dress by Maria Lucia Hohan, featuring a sizable cutout at the back that tastefully revealed a hint of skin.

The actress made her look shine with jewelry from Sylva & Cie, Randall Scott Fine Jewelry, and Ileana Makri before finishing the ensemble with an Emm Kuo clutch and a pair of Stuart Weitzman “Legwrap” sandals in nude suede.

We weren’t too impressed with Bellamy’s attempt to break out of her First Lady wardrobe.

We like the concept behind the look, but the color of the dress doesn’t flatter her skin tone, and the length is awkward.

It’s like looking at a cheap infinity dress. At least we would have appreciated a minimalist heel for this look.

Wrong outfit aside, we’re happy that “Scandal” is still going strong. Bellamy talked about what it was like during the first season and how amazing it is to celebrate 100 episodes. The actress also spoke about her new onscreen flame.
