At the Cannes jury photocall, Uma Thurman showed up in a rather stunning, figure-flattering white Dolce & Gabbana dress with which I was initially quite taken, but then I noticed the eyelet detailing. Actually, the sleeve details are pretty okay and not a deal breaker, but then there’s the awful matter of the flowery eyelet pattern in the boob area, which looks very out of place and sort of kills the entire dress up close.
Still and as a former model, Uma knows how to work a less than perfect outfit, and the dress really flatters her from a few feet away.
Other jurors in attendance included Jude Law and Robert DeNiro. Kaiser, CB, and I are sort of wondering how long Jude will take to get someone pregnant in the coat room at one of Canne’s many notorious parties.
Also, the everchanging hair line of Jude must certainly ebb and flow whenever he’s getting some action. Is it possible to remove one’s hair plugs?
At present, Jude’s hair would indicate that he hasn’t gotten laid yet since landing at the airport. However, there are still several days of the festival left to endure, and Jude won’t be alone for long.

gorgeous. She rocks that dress.
Stunning! Jude looks good, too.
I love the dress and shoes.
Gorgeous! From far away or up close the dress is great and she looks fabulous as well. A+!!!
Not a fan of the boob flower but she is ROCKING that dress and looks stunning nonetheless! Love the shoes also!
I think she looks fabulous. She has kind of a spunky beauty about her that makes her look very alive inside. With her smile, this woman would probably look amazing even if she wore a burlap sack!
Also, lol at your reporting on the status of Jude Law’s hairline! After all, we need some sort of explanation for it’s behavior. The way it changes, you would think his head has it’s own personal tide cycle.
She could wear a potato sack and still look amazing. The woman is stunning.
I like it.
Gorgeous! Look at her legs and those *cute* silver sandals. She rocks it!
No need to see that sleazy Jude Law. None.
I’m not loving that dress. Makes her look too matronly!
Agreeing with Samgirl-she is gorgeous.
She looks great! That first pic made me say wtf
The flower’s between her breasts, not on them
She looks fabulous!
Love it!! What a fresh, summery look for her.
Gorgeous. Who cares what the dress looks like if you’re that beautiful in it?
i admit, i never saw her appeal, but now, the woman is beautiful, that dress looks so fresh and effortless on her, we rarely see her and i think given her negative past, she over came with class. i love mature celebs like this.
Perfection!
Gorgeous! Omg, I forgot how beautiful she is! Love her
Love the way that DeNiro just stands there looking like DeNiro, and Jude Law is working it soooo hard. It’s the difference between self-confidence and forever being a wannabe.
What’s happening to CB today? It’s taking me hours to open the threads and the site itself.* 🙁
Anyway, I hate white dresses and this one makes no exceptions. She’s stunning, obviously (and she can move her forehead!).
*I don’t know if I’ll be able to post this comment, actually.
Edit: everything is working fine now.
Seriously @RobN, DeNiro’s all “Hey, nice to see you guys too. Where’s the food at in this dump?”
It’s a lovely dress, the eyelet detail is not especially questionable and we’d all be thrilled to look like that in clothes, so hey.
She looks beautiful!
Love her and the dress and shoes. Incredible how she can work it!
Uma and Jude both look great. DeNiro looks like he’s in line for the 4:30 early bird buffet.
Love the dress and she is wearing the hell out of it. Ditto the shoes. Total A+.
Love it! Very flattering to her figure.
I think she looks great. As for Jude.. *drools all over keyboard* I know he’s a sleeze but dayum! he can work a suit 😀
Holy Botox! 3rd Photo down. How do you only have wrinkles on part of your forehead? The middle is completly smooth. Great dress & she looks good. @Ron- Agree about DeNiro!
She looks great in it. However, whatever happened to her career? Ever since the Kill Bill movies, her career seems to have taken a drop.
She looks amazing from head to toe. It’s refreshing to see someone covered up and in a dress that’s actually flattering.
She’s stunning.
Stunning. With a capital “stun.”
Why is this dress worse than the one that Rachel McAdams wore? Barnacle flowers on that one.
Uma is gorgeous!
Dammm Jude is a Sexy Beast !
Love Him.
Knockout! i’m so jealous
Jude Law is bringing the Sexy !!
She is gorgeous. I usually hate eyelet, but she makes me wish I had a dress just like this. Man I need to learn how to sew! Honestly, she looks so wonderful. And happy. Good for her. Also, has anyone here seen Gattica? LOVE that movie, and love her in it. Jude’s in it too. And Ethan Hawke. Yay!
Nice of her to slump down so she didn’t tower over Bob; not many women would do that for fear of looking less than fantastic. That is what is so great about her; she doesn’t care cuz she knows she’s a knock out even if there is a bad pic or she has a double chin for a nano sec. LOVE her confidence!!
She looks great! Love the dress..
That is one of the most beautiful dresses ever and she totally rocks it.
Effortless. She really is casually elegant. I love her body language in that picture between DeNiro and Law. Sexy Chica.
thank god im not an A-lister celeb. i swear if i were ever scrutinised THIS up close to the single hald-inch long hair i might forget to pluck on my calf, i would hang myself 😀
better than to have two flowery eyelets one on each boob dont you think?
Stunning! She looks as fresh, crisp and clean as newly-pressed handkerchief.
I would be terrified of even breathing in that dress for fear of staining it! 😀
wow! all woman, she looks amazing!
Nice dress and shoes, but more high end professional attire, I think- appropriate for the CEO of a company at some big meet and greet).
I am in Seattle now-rain, rain, rain-we have had a “late spring”-oh how lovely Cannes would be!
Very pretty, classy dress and she looks amazing in it.
Go girl..
Best she has looked in a long time..
I’m so confused on the criteria that they used to select the judges.. De Niro I get.. but ummmmm not sure about some of the others..
scratch head.
That’s a natural beauty.
Her body looks *incredible* in this dress. I don’t care for the boob flower, but at least it doesn’t take away from her silhouette.
But does anyone else notice how oddly positioned her legs are, in that first picture? It’s like it’s turned at an unnatural angle. o_O
Uma is amazing. I only use that word once a week. So, Uma gets the a-word from me.
