Cate Blanchett, wearing lipstick red Armani in Paris: gorgeous or ghostly?

wenn3425600

Paris Fashion Week began today (I think) and these are photos from the Armani Prive show, where the two big celebrity attendees were… CATE BLANCHETT. And Katie Holmes. We so rarely get new photos of Our Beloved Blanchett, so lets milk these two lonely photos for all they are worth. I’m assuming Cate wore Armani, and it is magnificent, as most things are on her. You’d think that red would overwhelm her, considering she’s so pale and blonde and such. But it doesn’t – it works beautifully on her. Maybe that’s just because I love her… but I seriously think she looks amazing. I want the suit. UPDATE: I added more photos of Cate.

Next: Katie Holmes. No, we don’t have access to any photos where you can see her whole outfit. I think it’s black, loose and long-sleeved. Armani did her wedding gown, if I remember correctly, so Katie has some history with the brand. Plus, she doesn’t have much else going on – she’s been in Florida, where Tom Cruise is filming Rock of Ages, and she just threw him a big birthday party. Guess she didn’t want to stick around, though. Zoom…. PARIS! I do like her hair here. Very glossy.

  2. Kiki says:

    cate blanchette looks fantastic! what a beauty. that red just pops! katie holmes looks nice.

  3. Grenadine says:

    Cate looks fabulous, as always.

  4. tanya says:

    Cate can wear whatever the hell she wants, and she always manages to look impeccable yet effortless at the same time. Maybe I’m predisposed towards thinking that since I’m a huge fan, but I just think she rocks!

  5. Luci says:

    she looks AMAZING (as usual)
    kate blanchett always delivers fashion-wise

  6. Chloe says:

    I love Blanchett with all my heart but I think she does look a bit ghostly. I think it’s the make up.

  7. Sloane Wyatt says:

    Hail Cate – she’s a ringer for a part in ‘Twilight’ or ‘True Blood’.

    Kate Cruise though, poor thing looks like she’s always picking a shade of lipstick to blend with her ever present cold sores.

  8. chloe says:

    Love Cate and the fact that she loves her fair skin and knows how to wear the right make-up for it.

  9. RHONYC says:

    how in the hell did talentless Katie Holmes end up in a post with the incomparable Cate Blanchett? 🙁

  10. Chloe, the grumpy one says:

    [Hrm. Two Chloes on the forum? I’ll try changing my nick a bit CB, hope it doesn’t count as a violation of the site rules, I just don’t want to be confused with someone else]

  11. Ashley Temple says:

    Cate Blanchlett is actually perfect. i LOVE her. That suit is flawless. I love the structure.

  12. carrie says:

    beautiful red color and nice shoes but i dislike the outfit

  13. Bill Hicks is God says:

    That lipstick isn’t red. It’s a dark coral. Being as blonde and fair as she is, at least she has the sense to know to avoid real reds because they’d make her mouth look like a gaping wound.

  14. Glyrics says:

    Not a fan *ducks* She just seems like a “type” Hollywood likes. She looks ghastly, uh ghostly their. Too white

  15. fhm says:

    Cate can do no wrong in my book. Ever.

  16. lucy2 says:

    Cate looks gorgeous. It’s almost unfair how both talented and beautiful she is!

  17. JohnnieR says:

    Cate the Great is NUMERO UNO in my books. A FANTASTIC actress, intelligent, and she presents herself in an age-appropriate manner, fashion-wise, always.

    LOVE CATE!

  18. Anguishedcorn says:

    Cate can do no wrong in my book. Ever.

    Ditto that.

  19. Kate says:

    It seems awfully close to “A RACIAL SLUR” to make comment’s on a white woman’s COLOR! Seriously, you would be accused of racism if you said a similar comment about a woman of a dark skin color. Is it open season on WHITE PEOPLE for being TOO PALE? I am IRISH and I have IVORY SKIN…got something to say about my BEAUTIFUL SKIN COLOR THAT IS EXACTLY LIKE KATE’S ? If so “BLOW ME RACIST” I bet your life that you would never tell a JET BLACK woman to use a skin lotion to LIGHTEN HER SKIN COLOR…douchebag.

  20. Hautie says:

    Did Katie get her teeth even out? Or maybe a little bonding? Her smile looks better.

    And I am amazed how quick she was able to grow her hair back out. Looks great.

    Now let’s hope her BFF Posh, does not talk her into another stupid short haircut.

  21. GeekChic says:

    I seriously want Cate’s outfit. I am naturally blonde and very pale, ghostly even, so if an outfit works on her then the color should work on me. Of course I say this knowing fully well that it could never, ever, ever look as elegant on me as it does on Cate. Sigh…

  22. Ron says:

    I like the outfit overall, but the earrings look at bit Hilary Clinton.

  23. bluhare says:

    @hautie: I don’t think Posh is Katie’s bff anymore. The time they were was Katie’s time in the fashion spotlight when she eas ever so fashion forward. That’s gone and she’s back to blah Katie. I don’t think I’ve ever seen her photographed in one of Beckham’s dresses, which you’d think she would be if they were pals.

    Cate looks fab. Not personally a fan of the shoes, but she’s impeccably done as always.

  24. ElleGin says:

    Oh Cate, <3

  25. Hanh says:

    Love Cate’s outfit. She always knows exactly what works for her. Katie should lessons from Cate on how to dress your type. Katie’s fashion sense when she doesn’t have a stylist is usually atrocious.

  26. marge says:

    @Geek Chic: see how she didn’t do bright red lips? That would have made her look overpowered by red, but by using a soft color -that compliments red- she makes her complexion pop

  27. Cate has that timeless beauty thing goin’on.Loved her since LOTR’s.She was stunning in BB,too.

  28. Julie says:

    Cate looks to be getting over her anorexia. Good for her.

  29. original kate says:

    do you even have to ask? gorgeous.

  30. Camille says:

    Cate looks beautiful. Love the red on her.

  31. really says:

    love Cate, she can do no wrong!

  32. gobo says:

    She looks incredible. I swear, she get’s better looking with every year.

  33. S says:

    Gorgeous amazing beautiful spectacular. That suit was made for her. She is magical.

  34. Cristina says:

    It always seems to me that Cate is way attached to “Lord of the Rings-elf-style”.
    But what amazes me is the changes with Katie H. The girl seems to glow in the last days! Good for her.
