Katie Holmes in black & white at the Crystal + Lucy Awards: cute or fug?

wenn3400378

As Bedhead discussed yesterday, Katie Holmes was due to receive the “Face of the Future” Award at last night’s Women In Film Lucy + Crystal Awards. Katie was the headliner of the event, surprisingly, and I won’t even get into how big of a joke it was to honor the Kate-bot. I’ve been trying to find out who designed this, and all I’ve got is Max Mara, and that’s a guess. The even was sponsored by Max Mara, so it would make sense for Katie to wear a dress by the sponsor. As for how she looks in this black-and-white ensemble… pretty, I think. It’s nothing groundbreaking, but she looks very healthy and pretty and “together”. For a second I even thought her boobs were bigger, but it’s just an optical illusion with the bustier thing.

Here’s little Elle Fanning in a really pretty Marc Jacobs. Marc probably meant this for an adult woman, but I think it’s absolutely perfect for a 13-year-old girl. It looks like an old-school “party dress” that young women would wear to formal dances. She’s such a pretty little thing too.

And here’s Annette Bening, who brought her husband as her date. They look happy and tight – good for them!

And lastly, we have Rose McGowan’s jacked face. This face caused some consternation between CB and I this morning. At some point, we can no longer blame Rose’s car accident on what we see before of. At some point, we just have to say “This is how she WANTS to look.” Yikes.

    I like Kate’s dress but it fits funny in the waist area. The details on the dress are lovely but it just looks funny. I think Kate looks really pretty though, he makeup is fresh and lovely.

  2. Ari says:

    Rose looks like a completely different person. Like I am looking for one iota of the woman I have adored for years and I cannot find it :L

    Annette has old lady shoes.

  3. vanessa says:

    Katie looks very pretty and put together, probably the best outfit I’ve seen her in in awhile! Rose, love the name, hate the face. Annette is aging well, loved her in American Beauty, she looks like she’s wearing a garbage bag though…

  4. Katie says:

    Oh Rose. She was on an episode of Law and Order SVU earlier this year, and the whole point of her character was that she is so stunning that people were like, literally getting killed over her, and it just made what she has done to her face even sadder. Why Rose, why?

  5. fannomore says:

    katie kinda looks good but why is her face always so shiny? the rest of them look like hot messes, elle looks okay cause she’s just a kid but that is a very tennesee williams crazy lady dress…annette looks like a bag lady.

  6. Cherry says:

    That third photo of Katie Holmes is the weirdest I’ve ever seen of her! WTF is happening to her legs? It’s like her knees have bent over in some strange angle… Seriously, what is up with this posture?

  7. melissapedsrn says:

    I don’t know, half of what Katie wears I don’t mind and may actually like, but her clothes just never seem to fit right. Never. I wonder why? She doesn’t appear to have a hard to fit body. But something always looks jacked. Right?

  8. the original bellaluna says:

    Is it just me, or is KH looking decidedly more bobble-headed in that first pic?

  9. clare says:

    #2, Eve – you are spot on!
    Katie Holmes must be just the face of maxmara’s future in some kind of “be kind,rewind way.” What a joke, and
    insult to the deserving actresses.
    Annette and Warren look sweet and normal.

  10. MarenGermany says:

    how cute is annette bening, one hand in the pocket, the other clutched to her husbands………………………………………………………………………………………………………………? love that picture.

  11. Boo says:

    Katie’s asymmetrical thing makes her look crooked…the wonky leg thing isn’t helping, either. Borrow some money from your kid’s shoe budget and hire a better stylist!

    Elle is so cute…couldn’t they find that dress in her size?

  12. jessica says:

    WHAT IS WRONG WITH HER STANCE in that last picture?? Katie what u doing???

  13. yepp says:

    @Eve OMG WOW she looks just like that guy!!!! that dress is FUG!!!

  14. spinner says:

    Poor Katie…she never looks good. Always so sloppy. I do like her little, tiered handbag though.

  15. Rachael says:

    She looks like shit per usual. Those shoes don’t go.

  16. Belle Epoch says:

    FUG. FUG. FUG. ALWAYS FUG!

  17. Deb says:

    The dress Katie is wearing is a nice dress. She just doesn’t wear it well. She needs to stand up straight and quit twisting her legs and waist in weird positions.

  18. bondbabe says:

    Ummm, Katie’s shoes — are they suede? And if so, am I just being old-fashioned in the thought that you don’t wear suede in spring/summer? Or has that rule gone out the window?

    Anyhow, suede or not, IMO they don’t go with the outfit.

  19. Eve says:

    @ Clare and Yepp:

    I knew it wasn’t just me. I was actually going to post the link for the google search results but it’s usually too big and was afraid to be moderated to eternity.

    He looks like her in every single picture — like they’re separated at birth.

    P.S.: Wagner Moura is a very decent actor, he’s in a movie called The Elite Squad that won the Golden Bear at Berlin Festival in 2008 (I personally don’t like the movie’s “tone” of somehow justifying police brutality, but he’s very good in it). He’s also in the upcoming movie directed by Neill Bloemkamp (of District 9) called “Elysium”.

  20. serena says:

    Oh Rose you were so pretty.. (big sigh)..
    Anyway this time Katie dressed ok, I think, I really like the dress.. But god lord the shoes..FUG!

    Elle Fanning is the cutest little thing I’ve ever seen (in Hollywood) but she has to stop wearing heels.. she’s already very high.

  21. gee says:

    Katie Holmes looks the best she’s looked in years, Annette Benning’s dress is beautiful, and Elle Fanning is cute as a button.

    I feel like I don’t like Annette Benning, but I can’t think of why.

  22. trolleydolly says:

    I rarely (if ever) post a complimentary comment about Katie Holmes but tonight I must. Best she’s looked for an age. New stylist perhaps?

  23. Elizabeth says:

    Love Annette Benning – she embodies style and class. The dress looks both lovely and comfortable but it seems a bit large for her. I wonder if she lost weight (stressful life lately). And I am only picking on the shoes because she usually looks so elegant. The shoe choice needs to be tweaked. Lvoe the glasses, love the hair – even when she looks laid back, she loods great.

  24. MeriJaan says:

    EWWWWW, that hyper extended leg! GROSS!!!

  25. Mtn Girl says:

    Yuck – Katie looks like a Stepford wife!

  26. Mrs Harrison Ford says:

    The dress wouldn’t be bad on it’s own, but then she complicates matters with shoes that don’t match and an ugly ass bag. Don’t even get me started on her shiny forehead.

  27. DrM says:

    Kaiser…girlfriend….love your work but did you forget your glasses mate??? LOL Katie looks like bobble headed stick insect…and I was thinking she’s looking WAYYYYYYYYYYYY older than 32…more like 42…one of those ‘society women’ who have nothing better to do all day then plot how to spend hubby’s money…(take a gander at her hands!) 😛

  28. danielle says:

    I think Katie looks good there – but I think the nude shoes were a bad choice. Rose…oh, she used to be so beautiful! It’s kindof tragic, really.
