Best and Worst Dressed Celebrities at Cannes 2011

I was waiting the Cannes 2011 Film Festival to end before coming up with my verdict on the best and worst dressed celebrities. However, there have been so many celebrities walking the red carpet, I may have missed a few anyway. So I decided to write the post, with 2 more days still to go! I was wondering how many I should pick, but then I just let it be spontaneous. This is what I have so far!

Who is Hot?

My Top Choice is Angelina Jolie in Atelier Versace! 

She rocked the red carpet in this timeless brown strapless gown.

Bar Rafaeli in Roberto Cavalli

She looks stunning in the body hugging gown, nicely accentuating her curves.

Gwen Steffani in her own creation!

Hats off to her, not only for looking gorgeous but creating the gorgeous piece herself.

Uma Thurman in Versace

The actress carries of this strapless white gown in style. I just wish the hairdo was a little more neat!

Karolina Kurkova in Armani Prive

She is looking a little lifeless in this particular picture, but the off-shoulder gown is gorgeous!

Fan Bingbing in Versace

I really love this dress. Had never looked at Fan so closely, it's all because of the dress.

She looks graceful and chic in this satin strapless gown!

Who is Not so Hot?

Clotilde Hesme in Maison Martin Margiela

I neither know the actress, nor the designer, all I know is this is weird! 

What on earth is this? Should I call it a one-legged jumpsuit?

Everyone wants to look different, but this was much more serious than that! Yes, I experienced a shock of a 'different' level altogether when I saw this!

Elizabeth Olsen in the Row Dress!

First of all the dress doesn't seem to fit from anywhere. Secondly look at the flat chappals (sandals).

What, are we going shopping for groceries in the local market here? I guess we are at Cannes!

 Sara Jessica Parker in Elie Saab

This floral dress if knee length, may be nice for a casual get-together, but I don't like it for the red carpet! 

Freida Pinto in Lanvin

I don't know what she was thinking! This ultra-shiny short dress someone said looked like a bin-liner. 

I wouldn't be so harsh but this is repulsively shiny!!

Claudia Schiffer in Dolce & Gabbana 

The once-upon-a-time superhot model is wearing a lacy sheer gown which looks like a night dress!

Milla Jovovich in Prada

Where have the curves gone? And the red collar, that's not really stylish!

Diane Kruger in CK

There is nothing wrong with this dress but it's the fit on Diane that I don't like! 

The golden gown is hugging her a little too much, highlighting the bones and packs which does not look very pleasant!

I would have included Mallika Sherawat's spider dress too in this list, but I have already written about her here and didn't want to waste more blog-space on her!

Tell me what you think!

Sheer Fashion at Cannes 2011

While sheer is something I don't quite like in lipsticks and nail-polishes, it is an interesting characteristic when it comes to clothing. We have seen quite a few sheer gowns at Cannes 2011 red carpet so far, some of them are nice, some not so nice and one of them is 'I would rather not see'. Let's take a look.

Here's Ms Mallika Sherawat. An embarrassment to probably even spiders!

I know I am being a little insensitive here to have put up that black spider. But then she too was not really sensitive to our aesthetic sense!

Rachel McAdams in Marchesa

She looks pretty in this sheer dress with bright red embellishment.

Overall I like it, but just think that the dress is not doing justice to her upper curves.

 Candice Boucher in Gavin Rajah

The South African model is hot, but did we really want to see so much details including that bum curve?

I don't like that look from the back. If you wanna show those curves then sport a bikini but not a red carpet gown!

Penelope Cruz in Marchesa

I think she looks pretty in this lilac. Who can say she had a baby this year? She can probably still lose a few more pounds but I still like it!

Tell me what your view are, even if they are different from mine!

Aishwarya at Cannes 2011

This is what our very own Aishwarya Rai Bachchan wore at the opening ceremony of the 64th Cannes Film Festival. She walked the red carpet in an Elie Saab Spring 2011 Couture gown in stone color. The one-shoulder lightly-embellished mermaid gown had a peplum at the waist and was pretty. I only wish it had a little more color, say a touch of pink or peach or lavender. 

This is a model walking the ramp in the gown we are talking about. And as you can see, Ash brought life in this pale gown when we compare it to the model's look. It looked much more elegant on her, fitted her perfectly and accentuated her envious curves (and some not-so-toned muscles)!

Make Up and Accessories

Her make up was simple with smokey eyes highlighted with shimmer and plenty of mascara. She wore nude lip-gloss on her lips and her cheeks were blushed bronze. She also wore black on her nails. The hair was styled in a French twist with a few strands let loose.

The only jewelry she wore were a pair of dazzling earrings and a chunky ring on her finger (from Chopard is what I heard). What she is wearing closely resembles this!

She was carrying a Jimmy Choo ‘Cosma’ clutch.

This is what she wore last year at the 63rd Cannes Film Festival in 2010, stunning again!

Though I am not a great fan of her acting, when it comes to the red carpet, she carries herself very gracefully.
