Anne Hathaway in head-to-toe Tom Ford at the ‘Les Mis’ premiere: tragic or sultry?

OH DEAR LORD. These are pics from last night’s Les Miserables premiere in NYC. This post is just for “the ladies of Les Mis” in case you’re like “OMG where is Hugh Jackman?!” Because CB is already talking about him, and we need to just talk about fashion and how these ladies are presenting themselves and how it’s just so, so terrible. Let’s start with Anne Hathaway, who is pretty much guaranteed an Oscar nomination this year, and from the looks of it so far, she’s in it to win it. Is this the right way for an Oscar hopeful to present herself?!!?!?

Annie is wearing head-to-toe Tom Ford. The dress is Ford, the boot things (?) are Ford as well. At first glance, I liked the dress by itself, but as I examined it closely… no. No, I don’t care for it. The silhouette is good, but the cut is too narrow along the thighs and Anne looks like she might be having walking issues. Plus, there’s the matter of the giant slit (to show off those horrible boots) and the built-in thing on the back. I’m sorry, Tom Ford. This is a FAIL. Also: I dislike Anne’s makeup so much here. It’s too strong.

But is Anne’s look worse than Amanda Seyfried’s? The truth is, I don’t hate Amanda’s Alexander McQueen dress. It’s fine. It’s nothing special, but it’s okay. But does her makeup artist hate her? And does her hair person despise her? What has she done to piss off her style team? I think Amanda is very pretty, but the makeup and the hairstyle emphasizes the wrong stuff about her “look”.

And here’s Samantha Barks in Stella McCartney. A rare victory for Stella, I think, mainly because she just copied a years-old Ralph Lauren design.

    Anne’s boots look like scary medical devices – braces for wrecked knees.

    That outfit is hideous. Anne refuses to accept she has zero sex appeal.

    Keep horrifying us, Annie.

    no, no, no.. Anne annoys me, I like the boots better than the dress, but that isn’t saying much..

    Amanda’s makeup looks like stage makeup maybe? her look reminds me of a ballerina..

    The only one who looks good is Barks, as I sadi before-she has a beautiful smile.

    The more I see of Anne Hathaway, the more I hope she loses.
    Epically.
    I’m hoping for someone like Judi Dench to sneak into the Best Supporting category and show her how it’s done.
    Is Amanda moving to Switzerland to look after a herd of yaks? What’s with the Heidi hair?
    Sam looks gorgeous, I think she’s going to be the dark horse of the cast. So pleased she got cast as Eponine.

    What’s wrong with Hathaway’s style these days??? The dress looks okay, although taffeta is not my cup of tea. But those shoes and that thing wrapped around her calves are just plain hideous. They look like something Sandra Bullock would wear for Miss Congeniality.
    Amanda’s hair seems a bit too tight. I got headache just for looking at it, but her dress is beautiful. Sam’s dress looks so generic and boring.

    I think Rosanna Arquette wore a leg brace similar to Hathaway’s boots in the movie CRASH (the twisted Cronenberg one, not the ‘we’re all connected despite our differences, now I’m going to hug my maid’ Best Picture winner). Arquette looked better.

    That Tom Ford ensemble has my hair on end. Ugly doesn’t begin to describe it.

    Speaking of hair – I am a short hair lover but it does not flatter Anne at all. Her features are large, she needs masses of hair to balance them out.

    Her stylists sent Seyfried out with a bad look, for sure. Two toned hair and hideous makeup.

    I hope I like the movie better than the premiere outfits.

    I actually like Anne’s hair and makeup here. She’s petite, so the short ‘do really works for her. I hope she doesn’t do the Hollyweird thing and go for ratty extensions (but of course she will).

    The dress, though? The boots? Good god! Little shop of horrors.

    Her dress looks like a bunch of fancy trash bags all put together to make her dress. Especially in the back. And some ripped up ones made her leg cover? Or are they heels? Regardless this comment was sponsored by Hefty sure cinch bags.

    Anne is always a ‘NO’ with me. Her makeup highlights her bold features which is usually ok but Anne’s doesn’t have enough face area for both large eyes and large lips.

    Amanda is gorgeous but her hair and makeup are awful.

    I seriously thought those “boots” were a knee brace.

    Love the make up and the dress. the boots are TERRIBLE

    Amanda Seyfried is a no from the neck up. and the neck down YES

    The stella dress is totally a RL copycat or CK or someone….its been done about 5 times at least.
    Although, Flattering on the actress.

    Anne’s dress and contraption are awful. I’m guessing she wants to be more edgy, but she should go back to a more classic style, it suited her better. Though I don’t think anyone could make that get up work.

    I personally LOVE Hathaway’s look – it’s nice to see a really chic edgy look. But clearly its misunderstood outside fashion circles.

    I will say though, that this look would have been a better fit for The Dark Knight premiere.

    How is no one talking about Anne’s posing? I can’t stand it! I feel like I’m watching an episode of ANTM and the girls have to do the “high fashion” poses that just look awkward. Why is she doing that on the red carpet? I mean, I know there are photos but this isn’t an editorial spread.

    I guess I’m in the minority. I like Anne Hathaway. She was a child actress that didn’t derail. She’s made good choices in movies and she can act and sing. I love Les Miserables. I’ve read the book, seen it multiple times on Broadway and although I didn’t care for the movie with Liam Neeson I’m excited for this version. Supposedly, based on reviews of people that actually saw the movie she did really well. That’s why she’s most likely going for the Oscar. I just don’t get all the hate. People hate reality stars and they hate actual stars too ???? I guess nothing makes people happy.

    Anne Hathaway is f’ing insufferable. Her inevitable Oscar win will be notable solely for how mother-romancing ridiculous her speech will be, like Sally Field times Halle Berry with a Gwyneth Paltrow exponent while she pretends she didn’t lobby her starved ass off for MONTHS for the award. I cannot stand her.

    Anne looks like Darth Vader’s prom date here. Very Goth dominatrix. DNL.

    Amanda looks like she got Catherine Zeta Jones’ outfit by mistake. Sorry, but a girl in her mid twenties should not be wearing that gown, it’s much too old for her. She looks like she’s in her 40′s here.

    These girls need some new stylists. Unfortunately, some stylists focus so much on “pushing the envelope”, they forget that they should be making their clients look good.

    Anne H’s dress is good but the shoes are an unnecessary statement. Amanda S’s makeup I like very much but rather than to put any kind of red tone in the corners of the eyes, I would have opted for teal with a gold overlay. Thats just me. And I love her hair too. The other one with the silver dress, we’ve seen that forever, it’s an old staple already.

    Banks looks like a lovely woman in a basic dress. Amanda’s hair & eye makeup are too extreme & not becoming. She’s also giving lousy posture, with the hunched back & rounded shoulders.
    AH? As if the bizarre dress & shoe-boots (which don’t fit – toes on the carpet) won’t get her enough attention this week, she flashes the press while getting out of the car? She’s been around for many years & certainly knows how to exit a car so did she do it on purpose?

    Anne Hathaway can never, ever be sexy. She’s just not the type to pull it off successfully. I cringed in the latest Batman movie because of her. Whenever she tried to be sultry, it was just so awkward.

    I feel bad because she’s never really done anything wrong, you know? But she just bugs the crap out of me.

If Rachel Zoe is still her stylist, she must secretly hate Anne at this point.

    A festival of fug. I don’t hate Amanda’s (my beautiful alien queen) dress but it’s too damn long and I hate that Vegas girl look of the Stella McCartney. Now to talk about Anne. The dress would have been fine had it not had what looks like a trash bag taped to the back of it and egads the shoes! When I first saw them I thought she’d injured her foot and was wearing a leg brace. Fashion fail all around.

    She needs to get back together with Rachel Zoe. Or at the very least Brad. She hit it out of the park with her wardrobe during promotion for Get Smart.
    I don’t think she’s strung together a great series of looks since. It usually a hit followed by two or three misses.
    Anne, call Rachel ASAP.
