Cameron Diaz in silver Stella McCartney at the Met Gala: stunning & lovely?

With Gwyneth Paltrow’s abandonment (for Prada), Stella McCartney had to choose another fashion girl to dress for last night’s Met Gala. So… she went with Cameron Diaz. Is Cameron the next choice after Gwyneth? Is that insulting to Cameron? Or Gwyneth? Or both? So, here’s Camy in Stella. I hate to admit it, but this might be one of Stella’s better designs. I like how covered-up Cameron is from the front, with the sexy open back as she’s going. I’m a big advocate for The More Sleeves Movement. We need more sleeves on the red carpet! I get tired of everything strapless all the time.

I even have to compliment Stella McCartney on the fit of this dress on Cameron. You can really see Camy’s wonderful figure, but it doesn’t feel trashy, I think. Does anyone else think Camy has gained some weight? I do. And I think it looks really good on her too. This is also one of the first times I’ve seen Cameron post-boob-job where I can really tell that she’s got bolt-ons. This dress makes her look very busty. As for the styling and such… Cameron’s face looks good. Not too Botoxy or waxy. Her hair’s kind of mess, but it’s a simply, uncomplicated mess. I like her simple jewelry too.

I’m including a photo of Cameron and Stella together. All of the photos claim the woman on the far right is M.I.A. Is that really her? She looks really different. Oh, and Stella looks awful! Why would she wear THAT to the Met Gala?

    Her back view looks stunning.

    Her front view looks like Blanche Deveroux circa 1988 with all the spangles and the big hair.

    • Agnes says:

      blanche – hahahaha!

      i agree on all points.

    • DrM says:

      +2! I thought “wow! Cam Diaz is looking ROUGH…she looks 50″…major dislike…the dress is really matronly, looks like something Joan Collins would wear and what is with the something about mary hair?

  2. Tiffany27 says:

    Is that MIA for real? What the sam hell happened?

    • lw says:

      That’s M.I.A? Complete with micro mini, model posing, and huge weave? Verrrry interesting,

      • Waldemar says:

        Yes that is M.I.A. I wonder what she is doing there. That gig at the superbowl really paid off.

  3. brin says:

    Looks like her “Something About Mary” hair…yikes!

    • Liv says:

      Ha, exactly 😉

      The dress is okay, even though it’s hard to make a dress look bad on Cameron Diaz…she has a great body. Glad she’s no longer on the super-woman-muscle-trip on which she was with A-Rod!

    • F5 says:

      More like a scene from “Death Becomes Her”

  4. T.C. says:

    Look at the butt side of the back. Those boxy shapes makes Cami’s butt look like an ugly square. You know Cami has a nice butt. The front looks too old fashion. Do not like. Thumbs down.

    • Cleveland Girl says:

      Agree

    • Ellen says:

      I agree — the front draping/pattern looks right out of Dynasty and the butt squares are a crime.

    • mia girl says:

      Yes, What are those butt boxes?! Overall the fit is not working because she has a great figure and yet she looks frumpy.

      Stylewise, the dress reminds me of something Angie Dickinson would have worn to the Emmy’s circa 1978.

    • AudreyS says:

      They look like pockets. The front is way too matronly for her.

    • gg says:

      Hideous. The odd butt panels were the first thing I noticed, then I saw the front had a weird pattern at the waist as well. It’s like it’s designed to be a shapeless old lady sheath.

      The color is nice but Stella always has to ruin everything.

      And Stella herself looks like she’s going to Sunday School wearing pontoons on her feet. Somebody fire this cow from making clothes? Please???????

    • gigi says:

      Exactly. The fit is terribly off. It’s like Stella was making a point of disguising all of Cameron’s curves. Cover the face and you might think this was a 60-year-old actress.

  5. Cathy says:

    How does she walk in it without tripping? I don’t really care for the length of the dress, otherwise, it isn’t bad.

  6. Krock says:

    The front looks good but the back! UGH! her ass looks terrible in it. And she has a fab figure but the butt area looks horrid!
    I’m not even going to get into the hair thing.

  7. Steph says:

    Is anyone else bothered by the bottom of the dress? I mean where her butt is at? It looks like butt pads to my eyes, disquised by the fabric

  8. Sisi says:

    Her boobs look wonky! They seem to migrate all over her torso. Its the fabric and lighting on the dress I think. The dress is very boring, been done hundreds of times already and therefor imo not suitable at all for this gala.

  9. marie says:

    I like the back, but from the front I get the feeling she’s wearing granny panties and I’m not sure why that is..

  10. serena says:

    She’s looking good.
    I was getting tired of her tiny short dresses. She has beautiful legs but she shouldn’t flash them everytime, that might be trashy and teenager-ish.

  11. Maritza says:

    The back of the dress is stunning but I don’t care for the front. The hairstyle does look like Something about Mary.

  12. Azurea says:

    In theory the dress should look good….but me no likey. It makes Cameron look dumpy & thick. I really don’t understand Stella McCartney’s success!

  13. Alexis says:

    MIA is looking more like a busted version of Kerry Washington than she usually does…wonky plastic surgery? Bad makeup? or just really tired?

  14. jess says:

    I like the idea of the dress but in reality it seems very Linda Evans circa Dynasty.

  15. Lee says:

    I don’t like it at all either. Weird lines around the bust, and strange panel on the butt. Gawdawful horrid dress. And the Something About Mary hair is the cherry on top.

  16. Shay Kay says:

    I want to like it and I do like parts of it but the overall effect..meh. The back stitching with the individual b@utt check “pockets” do nothing for what is undoubtedly a usually gorgeous @ss.It would have been better if the fabric had just draped over her bum. The front is a little too “Dynasty” but it’s a nice silhouette.

  17. Kevin says:

    Was her hump partner, P-didme, her date?

    • Andie B says:

      @Kevin – p-didme..bwahahahaha!!I snorted coffee through my nose then.

  18. corny says:

    STELLA!!!!!with her figure, you would think any dress would be a hit…this one is a miss, sorry Stella and what the heck is your outfit, parochial school wear?!

  19. Dee Cee says:

    Mrs Matronly .. but from the rear.. Stella wants a Pippa butt? Cam needs color.. and the texture of the fabric reminds me of Cam’s rough, pitted skin.. MIA should have been… rather than suffer this..

  20. Sandra says:

    ITA on the More Sleeves Movement! I get bored of wedding dresses being strapless all the time too.

  21. patata says:

    would have been better sleeveless

  22. lucy2 says:

    I like the fabric/color, but the styling itself is kind of old fashioned on the front (makes Cam look old) and the back is interesting but then the weird butt squares ruin it.

  23. Jordan says:

    I like her dress but why does her hair look like she borrowed Ben Stiller’s hair gel again?

  24. HoustonGrl says:

    How a dress can manage to make Cameron Diaz’s body look bad is beyond me, but this dress does it.

  25. poppy says:

    can stella ship those awful shoes any harder?
    the dress makes her look misshapen a bit.

  26. Green_Eyes says:

    Though the design on her lower backside takes away from the dress, it fits Cami perfectly. It’s nice to see her dressed as a sophisticated adult for once instead of something too low or high cut. Agree the added weight is perfect, and her figure is stunning.

  27. Hanna says:

    I want Stella’s shoes! 😀 😀 😀

  28. imabrat says:

    The back of the dress looks like it’s got a padded rump. Or she’s wearing diapers.

  29. Gia says:

    The cut of that dress is all wrong for her body shape. She’s too boxy…not flattering at all.

  30. Lukie says:

    I like the back, the hair and the make up. The front of the dress…meh. Crystal Carrington wants her dress back.

    I do not think that is M.I.A.

  31. lost in the barrens says:

    This is the wrong style for someone with little to no waist.

  32. Justaposter says:

    I love the back of the dress. I must say, whatever “work” she had done, has finally settled and she looks fantastic!

  33. hopperlea says:

    Cameron looks good. She looks very young in these pics. Younger than usual. I wonder what she had done to her face? It looks great.

    Ugh! I still think Stella is the queen of nepotism and most of her designs are hirrible.

  34. Sisi says:

    Cameron can be seen in the background on the post with Gisele Bundchen. The fabric looks so much more spectacular there, kinda like a diamond dress.

  35. Stubbylove says:

    I don’t mind Camy’s dress – it could have been better – it’s just meh. M.I.A. looks like she’s covering her vadge with her purse.

  36. mary simon says:

    Cameron’s makeup and hair look great. I love the shade of lipstick – glad to see her lose the harsh red.

    Like every Stella M. design, the dress is a bit off. What is with the square ass pads on the back? Why are there all those seam lines on the back? That strap thing across the back looks like a low exposed bra strap or some kind of device to keep the dress in place.

    The dress does look better from the front, but Cameron’s bolt-ons don’t make her look sexier – they make her look matronly.

  37. TXCinderella says:

    Holy crap! Stella finally made a dress that is actually pretty!

  38. Kel says:

    I think she looks much better than she’s looked in a while. The hair style is odd but looks good out of her face, and she definitely looks more age appropriate than she usually does. The dress is pretty – first Stella design I’ve ever liked.

  39. DeeVine says:

    Horrendous. Very Crystal Carrington like many others said. From the front she looks like a 60 year old lady.

  40. Amy says:

    That is the worst dress I’ve ever seen. Very unflattering. WTF is up with the butt panels?! Plus the whole Crystal Carrington factor.

  41. Stacia says:

    Don’t like the butt lines in the dress. It draws your eyes to her lady cakes…kinda distracting.

  42. velourazure says:

    not the right dress for someone with no waist.

    • Justine says:

      That’s what I was thinking, too. She has the frame of a young boy and is not sexy at all. She never is but this dress really points it out. Bad choice, bad taste, overall terrible. For me the worst style of the evening. By far. Meh.

  43. layla says:

    Cameron is long and lean … so why does she look so square and squat in some of these pics????

    Oh right, Stella McCartney.

    Fail.

  44. Kim says:

    The dress and hair are way to matronlly. She isnt aging well at all.

  45. danielle says:

    Ooof – she has something about mary hair, her butt looks flat (and it normally is amazing!) and her lack of waist is very obvious. Not a good look.

  46. Jayna says:

    Cammie was I’n an interview saying she can’t wait to turn 40. I have never met one woman who said they couldn’t wait to say they were 40.

  47. Jayna says:

    Horrible dress.

  48. Marianne says:

    I want to know why she had “There’s Something about Mary” hair.

  49. I Choose Me says:

    I love her whole look here. Best she’s looked on the red carpet in a while.

  50. dj says:

    I love this dress. It is one of the few of Stella McCartney’s that I ever liked. The back of the dress is gorgeous. Very classy and tasteful. I wonder why Gwynnie is wearing Stella? Did Cameron get first pick?

  51. Zelda says:

    I actually like the dress.

    But Cameron Diaz has a slightly thicker waist an flatter bum, and this just highlights all that. Wrong choice, but good dress.
