Or weight loss? Or Xenu? Or her spirit is broken? All of the above? Could be. But she does look different, doesn’t she? I could swear her face is different, and it’s not just a weight loss thing. I can’t put my finger on it. Anyway, this is Katie Holmes in NYC yesterday, on her way to the Calvin Klein show, where she will no doubt pick up the entire collection, then tweak it slightly with some budget lace and bad stitching and use it for her own collection, Holmes and Yang. It’s called “The Victoria Beckham Method”. And it seems like the House of Calvin Klein is fine with that.
Katie Holmes has been described as the ”perfect” Calvin Klein girl by the legendary fashion house. Katie Holmes is the “perfect” Calvin Klein girl.
The fashion house’s Women’s Creative Director Francisco Costa is a huge fan of the stunning actress and was thrilled when she was in the front row at the Calvin Klein Collection show yesterday (16.09.10) at New York Fashion Week.
He said: “We met her before she was married. She’s the perfect Calvin girl.”
Speaking about the show, Katie – who is married to Tom Cruise – told People magazine: “I just loved it. There were so many pieces I would love to have. He did an amazing job. I loved the simplicity. I loved the colours he’s chosen, the fabrics and his simple elegance.”
As well as Katie being impressed with the show, Francisco was pleased with the final result.He said: “It was more about the body, the fabric, and obviously interesting cuts. The new field for me is softness, and making that very sharp and crisp, which is much more difficult. It was challenging, fun, much more fluid, elongated. We started in resort with that mid-calf length.so it was a step forward.”
Katie – who was dressed in a cream-coloured Calvin Klein dress – admits she may use the show as inspiration for her own clothing range. She said: “I was very inspired.”

Why are all of these fashion professionals always going on and on about Katie’s style? She generally looks like ten kinds of hell, although I will give her credit for starting a few trends, mostly involving pants (whatever). Also, Fame Pictures calls her a “fashion icon.” I would bash them for that, but they are not the first to refer to Katie as some kind of style icon. I think those people are smoking crack.

Jackie Kennedy is rolling over in her grave knowing that Katie Holmes is playing her. Poor, poor, poor choice.
It’s her eye make up that’s different. Look at the pic with sunglasses on – it shows the same old Katie.
She does look different. Her face looks very chiseled and even more angular than usual. Hmm. Botox to lift the brow? A touch of liposculpture around the jawline?
I think Katie is one of the most beautiful celebs out there…too bad for the dead eyes all of the time. Kinda makes me sad for her.
Fashion Icon? Maybe in a Sears kind of way, I guess. She needs to stop losing weight because the thinner her upper body gets, the worse her legs look.
Botox and brain washing. Now those are dead eyes.
She’s simply sucking her cheeks in, isn’t she? That’s also something she learned by watching Vicki B.
Her chunky legs ending in those clodhopper shoes brings to mind an elephant.
Gosh azurea, if you are calling Katie Holmes’ legs chunky, I hope you never ever ever see my body!
I think this dress is great, but I’m not loving the shoes and I do NOT think she is a fashion icon.
She looks embalmed.
Her skin is unnaturally smooth, like every bit of character has been has been botoxed, lasered, or acid peeled off. Open-casket chic.
She looks just like her hubby in the shot where she is wearing sunglasses
They do say married couples start to look like each other…
You, Mrs. Cruise, are no Jackie Kennedy.
she just looks more and more ‘drained’ in each new photo; like she’s given in to the barley water and xenu and decided to let suri run things. it’s very sad. she doesn’t look like a happy camper at all.
Marjalane and Azurea–thank you for pointing out the legs! I thought I was the only one who saw it. Some people just have thick legs, and she appears to be one of them. Not fat, but not thin. Like, I doubt she has a hard time finding knee-high boots that fit her calves.
I think she looks awkward and uncomfortable. To me, a stylish outfit should look effortless, and this doesn’t look effortless. Lose the shoes.
And, yes, those dead eyes always make me feel sorry for her. She lives in the lap of luxury, but at what cost? Trading in her own beliefs for someone else’s, being spied on all the time, etc. Not worth it, in my opinion.
Nice bling. Wouldn’t want to mess with that bodyguard though. Ditto on the shoes, ankle straps are not her friends.
I think she lost weight and change her foundation plus different eyebrows and that’s it. She looks fine, through.
Nose job revision. Her nose is straight now – it was crooked before.
I feel sorry for her. She looks so sad. It looks like she is using. Her hair is all ragged and her skin looks parched.
She sold her soul to the devil.
How is Katie the icon when Suri dresses her?
Her brows look different and her face looks like something has been sucked out of it…maybe just some weight loss.
she looks that way bc she just found out about tommie-girls new boyfriend!
why is everyone wearing those shoes? yeash
Xenu Xanax.
Could just be she saves her expressions/energies for the people who matter (friends, family, etc.), and stays blank for the paps. Why would you smile at a bunch of strangers taking candid shots of you with your permission? Really.
Yeayeayea, celebs should be used to it, I know. But it’s no reason to bother showing any emotions, in fact the more popular/famous the person is, it’s probably better they don’t. Keeps everyone guessing and speculating. As we do.
since she hooked up with crazy Cruise, she’s had at least one nose job. and I actually think it’s two. both subtle, though.
I partially agree with ND here…with the shades on, she does look like the old Katie…but I don’t agree that it’s only make up. I think she did something to her eye area…eyelid/brow lift, maybe.
and I also agree that those shoes are HORRIBLE. her legs aren’t fat, but they are thick, and ankle straps aren’t good on women with thick legs. and she does NOT need that extra height, either. I understand wearing heels to lengthen the leg, but the platform part is so unnecessary.
EDIT: lol @ jen…Xenu Xanax is brilliant!
Her eyes look bigger and her face seems more angular, possibly due to weight loss.
FINALLY – high heels with tire treads. NO SLIP GRIP.
these shoes? Serious? Elegant is SO something else. but playing JK is not making her a style icon. she really sold her soul to the devil, so true…
tread heels are huge this fall.
her shoes are fire, but those legs…mmman! 🙂
She has the face and neck of a 50 year old. Ugh. katie.
her face looks impeccable… very pretty and those shoes are hawt!
buuuuut her cankles really bug me.. sure skinny ones, but still cankles. i know i know.. so shallow.
It’s her nose, I’m with the Truth Fairy….either she learned how to apply make up really well or she had some work done…..She’s lost a lot of weight, though, hasn’t she? I guess if I was married to TC, I’d stop eating and hope for an early death too.
I couldn’t possibly add anything to this thread to make it funnier or more interesting. I loved reading everyone’s comments…needed a good laugh this morning & got one 🙂
I vote for some kind of eye procedure. To me she looks REALLY different. Maybe cheek fillers because she was so gaunt?
Her knees are wonky. So are Suri’s. Maybe they are related after all!
wow, her hair is super shiny and looks clean for once.
plus i LOVE her shoes!
Damn, that woman has a lot of bling! Look at those diamonds! She looks sad in these photos, maybe she wore all the rocks to remind her why she sold her soul…
How could she be a fashion icon if she’s dressed by her 4 year old daughter?
Those shoes are awful btw.
I love the shoes, but as mentioned above, ankle straps are not Kat(i)e’s friend.
Does anyone know what shoes they are?
I can hear Tommy demanding that she get “Thinner! Thinner!! Thinner!!!”. Hence, we have the sharp jawline. Tommy Boy doesn’t like any fat on his women.
Is she “Katie” again? What happened to “Kate?”
Oh, yes, she has had plastic surgery now. Tons of it. She needed it, to look older than Suri!
Bwahaha!
She has Britney, aka dead, eyes.
Holy Michael Jackson batman!!! Shit, lay of the ( )!!!!
Looks like she had upper lids done.
Tom dressed as katie? Looks like his jaw line…
Oh gosh. Someone hug her quick! She looks utterly miserable.
@N – More like she changed make-up artists. She doesn’t she artistically inclined – based on what I have seen of things she designed on her own, allegedly.
At first, I was confused as to why they repeated basically the same sentence three times in three paragraphs but it is not all part of the article. But still 4 sentences (title, caption, intro, first sentence) are almost verbatim repeats and then a fifth paraphrased sentenced two paragraphs down. We get it Contact Music she is the “perfect Calvin Klein girl” and not just because of Tom’s money (sure).
@Sumodo1- I don’t think that every caught on. I think Tom Cruise is the only one who really calls her that. I don’t know why, it’s not like she was a megastar whose name was so well known and ingrained in people’s mind for years. Like when Madonna tried, but P. Diddy and J Lo did it and they were way more famous. But maybe they actually wanted to change their stage name rather than having the decision made for them.
@Stephie- Lack of expression I can understand. Most stars do it at least some of the time, but completely dead behind the eyes and drained isn’t peoples’ natural look when they are expressionless.
She is very medicocre looking with a TERRIBLE sense of style/fashion. All her Tomkat money cant buy her taste. And she needs to stop the fillers/tweaking. She is wayyyy to young to look that plastic. Her eyes are way to lifted for her age-should have gone more conservatie on upper eye lid job.
Katie can clearly be bought and CK can cash in on her willingness to be whatever someone else wants her to be.
Notice how he states they eyed her BEFORE she married!
But the public won’t buy it, because we’ve already seen her conform to Tom, Scientology and Suri.
Anyway, I’m now completely put off CK for life.
All the money in the world and her hair looks like that????? She needs a makeover badly.
I see no Jackie Kennedy in her.
She looks thinner, dead-eyed (par usual), and if she’s a style ion then we’re all in trouble!
Of course she’s the perfect Calvin Klein body-type – she has no boobs. CK has NEVER designed clothes for women with boobs!
My suggestion is wear stilettos with those calfs. 2nd look for whoever has your voodoo doll because you look zombieish and a shell of a woman. So sad.
Those shoes just don’t work.
Oh god! All that money and so little style. She can’t help the legs, but she can help the shoes.
WTF is up with those heels? Ugly color, too big of a heel, and look at those big rubber bumps on the bottom. GOD that’s ugly!
I’m voting brow lift and weight loss. That and eye makeup to make her eyes look tilted up instead of down, like they usually are.
I think its thick liquid liner, weight loss, and a touch of zombie.
The shoes are fug.
She has Coco jaw.
I can’t believe anyone thinks her legs are big!
She needs a burger, stat, and a rescue from the King of Crazy.
She looks like she is sucking in her cheeks big-time. No, not those cheeks – her FACE! LOL
I don’t recall her having such a square, chiseled jawline. Maybe it’s just weight loss.
Holly fuck those are some thick ass legs! All that money and no fixing of the canckles possible…. I wonder what they looked like before when she was bigger, I mean she is pretty skinny and to still have those tree trunks…
her knees are the size of her head!
Whoa, Katie is looking more and more scary these days!
(sigh) She seemed more “normal” before she became Mrs Cruise III …
Brains! Feed me brains!
I don’t agree that she’s got thick legs… I mean, MY legs are thick. If you think her legs are thick…god, how thin do you have to be. She’s got the tiniest knees too. Otherwise, Katie’s got normal slender legs as far as I can tell. But I agree about the zombie look. She looks like a completely uninteresting person and I certainly wouldn’t go to a movie of hers just because she was in it.
She does have thick legs. She is toned to an inch of her life but tree trunk legs are tree trunk legs. Her mother has them too. Funny how pregnancy seemed to change her body shape forever. Her legs were much slimmer pre-bbay, but still naturally thick-ish.
On a more positive note apart from the ankle straps on the shoes at least this dress is vaguely flattering.
In the car picture it looks like she’s about to hit herself in the face with the door.
Look at her calves vs. her ankles. She has thick legs. I don’t understand why she insists on wearing miniskirts with such unattractive lower legs. When she wears long dresses and wide-legged pants she looks spectacular.
i kinda think u guys are haters..she looks fabulous to me….i do think she is brainwashed by her weirdo hubby…however i think she looks beautiful
My first reaction to her face was “nose job”. Something is definitely different.
And I agree about the thick legs. She’s not fat by any means, it’s just her genetics… she doesn’t have skinny legs.
And whats up with her teeth? When I saw her on The Kennedy’s last night I noticed them…
I love Katie, enough with all this negative comments, she might not be a style icon but she tries, her legs are just okay. Every one must not have thin legs. I like it that she has accepted her self the way she is. I have thick legs like her and have started to accept mine the way they are. I like seeing her in minis
