Julianne Moore, Eva Longoria and Paris Hilton at the 67th annual Cannes Film Festival.
Highlights
- The good news is that neither Aishwarya Rai Bachchan nor Mallika Sherawat made it to this list. The bad news is that many formerly well-dressed celebrities did.
- Here are eight ‘what-were-they-thinking’ dresses from the Cannes Film Festival this year:
- Eva Longoria in slashed Vionnet. The colour washed her out, the draping bunched around her tummy, the turtleneck looked like it was strangling her. She managed a faint, pained smile.
- Marion Cotillard in white mullet-style Dior. The boxy cut fell shapelessly around her slim figure, further undone by the black booties. Brave but misguided.
- Alessandra Ambrosio in asymmetrical white Atelier Versace. Supermodels usually make the ugliest dresses look good. Not this supermodel, not this dress.
- Irina Shayk in pale pink Versace. Ditto. Not even a supermodel body can justify a dress this hideous.
- Christina Hendricks in black Alberta Ferretti. The flame-haired Mad Men star usually knows what works on her voluptuous silhouette. This Gothic horror isn’t one of her better looks.
- Paris Hilton in really strange Rocky Gathercole. A sheer jeweled bodice morphing into a flouncy black and white striped skirt – sounds good on paper, looks ugly in real life.
- Julianne Moore in maroon, black and white Louis Vuitton. If the leather bodice had been less ill-fitting and less at odds with the monochrome skirt, Julianne would have been on the best dressed lists as she usually is.
- Victoria Bonya in black and nude lace. This dress will ensure the Russian TV personality won’t be invited back to the French Riviera.
