Michelle Williams in black & white Givenchy: adorable or dated?

These are photos of Michelle Williams and Colin Farrell at last night’s US-Ireland Alliance Oscar Wilde Pre-Academy Awards in LA. Michelle wore Givenchy, a silhouette and style we’ve seen on her a million times before. So although it’s nothing new, I do kind of like it on her. I mean, I’m exhausted with the high-collared Rosemary’s Baby look, but if you’re hellbent on doing it, this dress is pretty cute. Plus, it’s shorter than her usual dresses, and I don’t think I’ve ever noticed how nice her legs are. She has a better figure than most people realize – does she get credit for not throwing her boobs in our faces on every red carpet?

But really, don’t you wish and hope that Colin Farrell made his way over to Michelle and they had a little moment? Michelle is fully ensconced in her second virginity right now – whether it’s part of her Oscar campaign or simply a phase she’s going through, I don’t know. But she acts like she’s much, much too fragile to even handle being touched by a boy. Is that Colin’s type? Or is his type still “two legs and a pulse”?

I have to say – I’m not into Colin in these photos. He’s showered, he’s groomed, he’s got a haircut like Mark Harmon on NCIS. His suit fits. He looks pleasant. Not sexy! I need an unbuttoned shirt, some scruff and some necklaces to find him hot. And I’ve never been that girl – the girl who goes for the scruffy poet. But that’s the one way I really find him hot these days. Still, I am hoping that he and Michelle had a moment at this event. I’d really like for them to have some kind of torrid, dirty, Oscar-weekend hookup. Right?

    I like it!

      Let us remember, that after you’ve spent 6 months filming with that hot sleek cat Ryan Gosling, you tend to go into shock after losing his constant attention, and anyone else would just PALE in comparison.

      As for Collin… This is very weird, my gaydar is up. Never before on him. He was the ultimate dirty boy, and he smelled it, even through the screen. But now… Is it just me?

      Is it because he looks like my hairdresser all of a sudden? Or has he simply went through all the possible female conquests, and is now cutting through the male population!

  2. Dee Cee says:

    Dat bowl cut of moron hair is killing her style..

  3. Marjalane says:

    I’ve come to the point where Michelle’s pixie cut, boring dresses and closed mouth smile, just irritate me.

    • Buffy Wilson says:

      Closed mouth smiles get on my nerves in general.

      To paraphrase Vincent Gardenia in Moonstruck, “I don’t trust him, Loretta, you can’t see his teeth when he smiles. What’s he hiding?”

    • lilred says:

      I much prefer the closed mouth smile to the mouth breather look.

  4. Lilla says:

    Love the dress. She does have great legs!

  5. QQ says:

    She looks good, aaaannndd she wont be seen with a man so long as there are Widow Ledger interviews to be given

    Colin looks like a Mafia Don Halloween costume, no me gusta

    • Veruca says:

      “Widow Ledger interviews”.

      That made my morning. Thanks for that!

      😀 😀

    • heatheradair says:

      I was thinking that, but then it occurred to me that she hasn’t really worked the whole “How I found love again” angle that People and what not really love. I don’t think she worked that when she was with Spike Jonze (she was still using the “I guess I’m not ready for this, I’m still healing….” excuse there).

      I think it opens up a whole new Woman Rediscovers Passion line of equally eye-roll-worthy interviews……

    • Molly says:

      Oh God, that’s so true. She brings him up every ten seconds. Either she really needs intensive therapy or she’s milking his memory for publicity. And I hate to think the latter is true, because that’s terrible.

  6. Mitch Buchanan Rocks says:

    That dress would look better with ballet flats – the uber heels coupled with the dewy innocent gaze make Michelle look like a little girl playing dress up.

  7. Maya says:

    I think all designers are going through a retro phase now. Either way, she looks good.

  8. heatheradair says:

    I’d LOVE them together. She seems like she needs the panties rocked off of her these days. I think he’s up for the job. Would love the Vag Hound meets Saint Michelle dichotomy there………….

    How can we make this happen???????

  9. Fran says:

    Michelle: BOOORING

    Colin: wtf? Not the right look at all!!

  10. lucy2 says:

    I wouldn’t choose it for myself, but I like it for her.

  11. Lis says:

    Looking at Colin, all I can think of is a rather nasty Dubliner joke:

    Whaddaya call a Northsider (ie, north part of Dublin) in a suit?

    The defendent.

    Dressing up like this just makes him look sleazy and, well, like he’s dressed up for court, on a charge of, say, receiving stolen goods.

    He needs to embrace the scruff, because putting him in a nice suit doesn’t make it go away.

  12. Lis says:

    Agreed.

    I lovelovelove the detail at the bottom. But the waist is just wrong.

  13. Delta Juliet says:

    I love that dress and it looks very nice on her. I’m not really a fan of hers (I’m kind of a nothing of hers….no feeling either way) but I like her hair and her style. It’s different from all the tits-in-your-face and long straight hair look that everyone else has.

  14. fancyamazon says:

    I find her pretty bland, but this dress is really cute on her.

  15. jen says:

    She looks like a Sister Wife.

  16. skuddles says:

    She’s as cute as a button but I so wish she’d change up her look a bit! Do something different with her hair and experiment with fashion a bit more … every dress she wears reminds me of the last dress she wore.

  17. Cathy says:

    The dress looks good on her, she does have nice legs, never noticed that before. But I’m tired of that haircut, she needs to grow her hair out. Whoever chose Colins suit needs to be fired. He doesn’t look good at all.

  18. BK says:

    That haircut does not do her justice. She has shown she can look sexy and mature, but not with those clothes and hair.

    But maybe she wants to downplay her looks to be taken seriously as an actress.

  19. Meanchick says:

    “Ensconced in her second virginity.” LOL! Perfect description! I mean, what’s up with that? I remember her in “If These Walls Could Talk” and she was “handling her lesbian business” with Chloe Sevigny. I’m sick of the little wispy, innocent, nun-like act she’s giving us. She is beautiful, but knock it off.

  20. normades says:

    Awful facial hair on Colin. Yuck.

  21. Jessica says:

    OH COLIN!!! I would so hit that HARD!!!

  22. Tillie says:

    I think she looks lovely about 99% of the times. She is just very pretty, and I think she is very talented too. I have never cared for him though.. I don’t get why women like him, at all..

    He is so nót my type.

  23. stuck in the barrens says:

    So sick of her sweet,innocent,virginal shtick.When is she going to grow up and dress like a woman?

  24. Lindy says:

    I am ready for her to mix it up a little. I think she’s got talent, but she’s getting so dull and pale and fragile and monotonous that she’s about to fade away…

  25. juju says:

    This dress is great, love it !!! She looks better than ever really pretty !!

  26. layla says:

    I WAS a fan of the hair cut… but even with short hair, you CAN style it in different ways.

    She’s just become so blaaaaah. It’s like she’s lost her personality in the fragile foal persona she plays.

  27. demian bichir says:

    I luv Mich.

  28. NeoCleo says:

    The man is naturally scruffy no matter what you dress him in. A scruffy, adorable little boy, up to no good, who severely needs a spanking . . . with the flat of my hand, yeah, that’s the ticket, heh, heh.

  29. Mrs. Harrison Ford says:

    I think if the dress was fitted it would look much better.

  30. poul yanka says:

    she looks great! <3 legs

  31. original sandy says:

    she has talent,but she does always look the same. not bad, but same.

  32. Franny says:

    He looks like one of the backstreet boys…

  33. Marianne says:

    I liked Michelle’s strawberry blonde hair. Why did she have to go back to this shade of blonde?

  34. Agnes says:

    She needs to stop with these dresses. And he needs to stop looking like this. 🙂
