Does anyone else think it’s weird that both Anne Hathaway and Marion Cotillard wore white for the NYC premiere of The Dark Knight Rises? I’m giving the color to Marion – I think it was appropriate for her to wear this white Christian Dior cocktail dress. She looks fresh and cute and appropriate. Anne, however, looks AWFUL in this Prabal Gurung Resort 2013 gown. First of all – white simply isn’t her color. It never has been, yet her stylist Rachel Zoe insists of putting Annie in white. Second of all, the Gurung gown is too bridal, especially when Anne is walking a red carpet for a film in which she plays CATWOMAN. If there was ever a time to walk a red carpet wearing black leather, it’s right now.
As for Annie’s hair… dear God. I feel mean saying anything about it now. Her hair is at a really awkward length since it’s only had a few months to grow out since Anne cut it all off for Les Miserables. I do think Anne is such a pretty girl… but she needs more hair. And the BANGS!!!!! Dear God, the bangs. *sobs*
So, basically, Anne walked TDKR red carpet looking like an unhinged, jilted bride with a bad haircut, and Marion looked every inch the movie star. How disappointing! I hope Anne ups her fashion game for the publicity tour.
PS… I think Gloria Steinem was Anne’s date? That can’t be right. UPDATE: Ah, Gloria is Bale’s step-mom, that’s why she was at the premiere. I knew the Bale-Steinem connection at one point, I just forgot it. Gloria must have just posed with Anne.

Anne Hathaway, you so pretty, but what’s with all the peplums lately. One time it’s fun and games, but oh dis is too much. too much. (in the voice of Edna Mode).
And Marion Cotillard. when is she ever not appear put together? even channeling bjork-on-ice she’s still a million mile wonderful. although, what fountain of craziness did that eyeliner style come from?
Does it really count as a peplum? Maybe a baby peplum. Or a fringe?
Love Anne’s eye make-up. And major eyebrow jealousy. Growing mine out over the summer while I’m in cast and restricted to my living room and deck.
have to give the win to ann, because marion’s makeup is HORRIBLE
@ bros – agreed. I don’t much care for AH’s dress, but Marion’s eye makeup makes me think she needs to see a doctor … Not sure what the reasoning behind that situation was!
Ooooh, I am so glad to find someone else who has to grow out their eyebrows. Not sure about you, Amelia, but I overdid it, they were too thin and short, and I wanted fuller eyebrows. Now I go to a very bossy lady at a salon who is shaping them as they grow out. She has made it clear I am not allowed to do ANYTHING until they’re grown out, and then I still have to follow her instructions exactly. Bossy? Sure. Brow-saving? Absolutely!
love Anne’s clavicles & swan neck. always have, always will. 🙂
With hair that short and a mouth that big, Anne should not wear red lipstick.
So disagree. But I just love it when “let’s make it sooo subtle that everthing is safely medicore” wasn’t the first order of business.
I’m not sure about Marion’s eyeshadow statement…
Agreed.
I actually liked the eye-shadow and make up of Marion much, much more than her dress. It seems cute and fun and summery.
Side note, orange/bronze is an eye make up trend I really wanted to try this summer!
Thank you. She’s gorgeous and that eyeshadow is just hideous. Few women if any looks fantastic in orange. The dress called for a more soft feminine look.
I like the eyeshadow, because to an extent I think of it as Marion’s signature- she has a bronze-hued smokey eye pretty frequently at press events/premieres
Gloria Steinem is Christian Bale’s stepmother. Why would Anne bring her with her unless it has something to do with those rumours about her affair with Bale.
Gloria looks fabulous and has aged naturally, but can ahem “woman over a certain age” stop with the nude illusion dresses?
Sorry, but Gloria has had her eyes done. Rather disappointing, isn’t it?
Dangit! Thanks Jen.
Gloria Steinem is Christian Bale’s stepmother. And Marion Cotillard looks AMAZING.
Marion est très jolie
Absolutely!
Marion is P.E.R.F.E.C.T.I.O.N. in any color.
Gloria Steinem is Christian Bale’s stepmother, maybe thats why she was at the premiere.
I actually love 3/4 of Anne’s dress, but that last quarter is bad!!
Gloria Steinem is Christian Bale’s stepmother (apparently they still have a good relationship even after his father died) so I doubt she came with Anne, but she was definitely there.
Gloria Steinem is married to Christian Bale’s father (so stepmother, except they’ve just been married a few years, so I’m not sure that’s their relationship). Anyhow, I’m sure she’s there with the Bales.
He father died years ago, that’s why I think it is nice she is still in his life. His own mother keeps selling stories to tabloids in the UK but I’ve never heard a word from Gloria.
Bale’s dad is dead several years ago but Steinem keeps contact with the Bales
I think Anne looks really pretty.
I agree. Anne looks lovely despite the unfortunate situation with her hair, but kudos to her for basically shaving her head for Les Miserables. I can’t point to or think of many people who look good with their hair growing out. I actually like her dress. Marion’s got that star thing going on but her dress reminds me of the Bjork tragedy at the Oscars a few years back. These type dresses need a swan song.
Marion seems to be owning her dress a lot more. I don’t like it but it looks good on her.
It’s not really a fair comparison, always Marion, but what’s with the orange eye shadow? not a fan..
Anne looks lovely. Marion too, except for the orange eye shadow….
like every one yet said,Gloria Steinem is Christian Bale’s stepmom and she comes to every Bale’s NY premiere
i guess she loved the movie because for once ,the female characters are strong
they’re beautiful but a few disappointing
I think it’s the other way around. AH looks fabulous, kind of Old Hollywood. MC looks like she needs an all-day sucker in one hand while her grandmama holds her other hand. And that eye shadow is terrible.
Agree
+2
Anne looks really good. Marion Cotillard looks like she’s wearing a goose.
The orange eyeshadow looks crazy, but Marion Cotillard is stunningly beautiful. Always.
I don’t like dresses with trains – would worry about tripping/ripping the entire time, but that’s just me. I know she’s trying to do the less-is-more thing, but I feel like she needs “something.” Maybe something slightly bigger than a diamond stud? More blush? Marion’s eyeshadow is a little weird, but I love her shoes, even though I could never wear them because my toes are wonky.
Separately, I was out with my mother yesterday and she was telling me about her recent celebrity sightings. I never see ANYONE famous, ever. A few minutes later Seal walks by me with all the kids and a few other people (nannies?). He looked right at me.
I WANT Marion’s shoes!
marion’s dress reminds me of that lara flynn boyle tutu mess from many years back.
Gotta disagree – Anne has the perfect coloring for white. It’s a delicate look that is not common in H-wood. Her haircut looks mod and it’s rather daring with her overstated features.
Marion looks like swan-dress-Bjork with bad eyeshadow. I love and adore her, but… just no.
I am usually heads over heels for Marion because she’s gorgeous and usually great fashion. But this time, I don’t like her dress, shoes or make up. Ann looks pretty good etc.
I prefer Anne’s dress. Marion looks like some fantasy outfit from Sex and the City.
I don’t mind Anne’s dress, though I agree white isn’t the best color for her. I don’t care for Marion’s eyeshadow and the dress is a little crazy, but it totally works for her.
I’m on the fence for both dresses. I just think Ann’s dress is too much for this premier. I think she should have worn something more badass for the character she plays. This is to glam. I don’t think it is a memorable dress. MC is very pretty but the dress does not do her beauty any favors. Too baby doll in a way.
I would have loved to see them both in COLOR.
Marion can do no wrong.
She is exquisite
Im gonna have to with Marion, she looks like a ballerina…I lurve it.
Marion Cotillard looks awful! Does she not own a mirror? From the bad makeup, ugly hair to the hideous dress, she is a fail all the way around.
Not much of a fan of Hathaway, but she looks much better than Cotillard.
Thank YOU, Gloria Steinem, for all you’ve done for women and feminism!
+1
Marion is looking beautiful but the make up is not that nice .
Marion’s dress is a bit too young for her. And why the hell did she choose orange eyeshadow ??? It makes her eyes look even more puffy.
Anne’s dress and style is meh to me
All three dresses shown are awful.
I Like Anne’s haircut and think she looks good with it.
I disagree completely — I think Anne looks lovely and ethereal, and Marion looks like a demented ballerina with consumption. They’re both unbelievably gorgeous though. And yay Gloria Steinem!
lol@consumption
Was there any real question about who looked better? Come on! lol Not crazy about Marion’s eyeshadow though.
Apparently there’s a rumor that Anne is pregnant with her first child. There were pictures of anne and her fiance at a dinner and they say it was a party to announce the news. If it’s true, Anne will probably show up at awards show for her role in les miserable with a big bump, like Natalie Portman, two years ago. (Sorry for my bad english)
Eek, I know Anne’s haircut is for a movie but that super short hair does not suit her. She’s not a Halle Berry or Michelle Williams. It’s like the beard Leonardo Dicaprio had to grow for Django Unchained. It’s gotta go!
Both were wearing white but the colour is only similarity so no competition. Like both looks, especially hair and makeup
I don’t like either look. Marion Cotillard looks ballerina-cutesy, like she’s working as a costumed character at a Disney theme park. And that long dress on Anne Hathaway might have worked if it didn’t have that awkwardly draped and blinged chest arrangement. I actually think her hair is looking cute, but I wish she would go with a more toned down lip color–her mouth is so huge, that I think she should call attention to her eyes and go with a nude lip or maybe a blush color.
Also, I got to meet and have dinner with Gloria Steinem when I was in college. She was amazing–funny and whip-smart, humble and insightful. I cannot even imagine how cool it would be to get to have her at the dinner table regularly.
Anne’s tight lips look like she is tolerating Gloria: “just hold my wrap–don’t get in my shot!”
No contest. Marion Cotillard is a goddess. AH needs hair to play down huge nose and teeth.
Even in orange eyeshadow, Marion will always win against Anne Hathaway’s goofy face.
I’ve unwittingly watched two Anne Hathaway vehicles in the last few days (Love and Other Drugs and One Day), and I really don’t see how she’s a “thing.” Marion, on the other hand, is pretty much amazing.
She has a modified Scary Clown Face.
Marion Cotillard is so beautiful. I mean look at that skin but I just can’t with that ‘The Ice Capades presents Swan Lake’ dress. Both white gowns are fug, fug, fug! Oh and did I mention fug?!
Who looked better? Marion, of course.
I think Anne’s dress looks so budget–like a cheap wedding dress.
I also agree she does not look good in white–it’s like it clashes with her cream colored skin.
I can’t hate on her for the hair; how she’s wearing it is really the only way to wear it when it’s that length growing out. And kudos to her for shaving it all off to play Fantine.
I’m totally doing a Photo Assumption with that pic of her and Gloria S./Bale’s stepmom. Based on the Lainey Gossip rumours that Anne banged Christian Bale for a few weeks on set, I’m imagining a thought bubble above Anne’s head saying:
“OMG, I can’t believe I’m standing here having my picture taken with the stepmom of the married man I had an affair with. OMG this is so weird and awkward please hurry up and take the picture.”
I actually think Anne’s hair is cute. Take advantage of it and show it off. Since its a temp hair-cut she needs to have fun with it. She should have spiced it up with her short-do. The dress was very blah.
I know I’m in the minority here, but without makeup I think Marion is kind of meh:

And I’m going to put on my Bitch Hat and say that that wart or whatever smack in the middle of her forehead is um, distracting.
She is a very good actress, though. She was amazing in “La Vie en Rose.”
I love Anne’s hair with her gorgeous neck! She needs to keep it this way. But she is beautiful either way, including the red lips. Naturally gorgeous. Marion is perfection with bad eye shadow. Both very beautiful. Plus, Marion looks happy!
Oh, you never like women with short hair.
