Here are some photos from last night’s “2013 Guggenheim International Gala Pre-Party hosted by The Young Collector’s Council” at the Guggenheim in NYC. Jessica Biel, Natalie Portman and Leelee Sobieski were all in attendance. Both Natalie and Jessica wore competing Dior dresses, which is kind of funny (to me, at least). Natalie is a Dior girl – she gets paid to represent the brand, and she’s been wearing Dior almost exclusively on red carpets for the past two years. Jessica on the other hand… well, she’s still trying to be a major Fashion Girl. She has no connection to the label other than the fact that she would love to be Natalie Portman.
As for the actual Dior dresses, I dislike both of them. I don’t think Dior has been doing a very good job lately with dressing their ladies. I guess Biel’s dress would have been cute-ish save for the lime green detailing on the top. Natalie’s dress, however, is just a hot mess overall. I don’t understand how Raf Simons (Dior’s chief designer right now) thinks stiff satin mall dresses are high fashion. Natalie looks like she’s going to a prom. Especially with her new old-lady hair. Are those PIN CURLS?
I’m not sure about Leelee’s designer ID, but I do like that coat, mostly because it looks elegant compared to Biel and Portman’s respective messes.
PS… As many of you have been saying, I’m starting to wonder if Natalie messed with her face. It does look different but I can’t put my finger on it.
