Gorgeous!






Nice waist and I love her pale skin.
Gorgeous, but you can definitely see she’s had the help of a corset or waist cincher under her dress…
Whoa. There’s definitely a corset under there!
Not the most comfortable-looking attire, but it’s definitely elegant-looking. Gorgeous!
Erin I looked again I agree. So maybe her waist isn’t so small after all lol… I’m so bad at being able to tell when celebs are wearing spanx, corsets, anything that sucks them in.
She looks beautiful. She also looks out of it…
I ABSOLUTELY SEEE a corset under there- if i am not mistaken, i see the bones (of the corset)
Her body looks ok here–but if you guys are right, and she’s wearing a corset, I’d like to see her without one. Might not be so good. XD
There’s something about her face that’s bothering me, though… I think it’s her makeup. She’d look better with less–much less.
WOW!
I think she looks a bit overdone, I mean she’s leaving the theatre not going out! I do love her but I think this is a bit old fashioned for her.
Yeah, I can see the corset. It makes her look absolutely fabulous, but I don’t think I could sit all night in a theater wearing one. Stunning!
Her face looks so much older than she is! I love the dress, but the old lady hair and skin is not a good look
Wow! what a fabulous(ly corseted) figure! the look is stunning.
She is absolutely stunning!
Such a 50s style siren. I don’t think it possible for her to look bad. Although she is very thin – she doesn’t need to be though.
This is what a woman’s body should look like! Corset or not, she still has to have a small waist to start with.
I find her to be homely.
I also don’t care for that corset effect, it just makes her hips look that much larger.
who?
Did anyone else read that Kim Kardashian is 109 lbs now! That’s pretty thin. I know she’s short (like 5′2) but that’s still quite thin for someone I usually consider curvy (in the flattering sense of the word not as a euphemism for fat). It makes me wonder just how little the really skinny girls weigh? Yikes!
Is she from the old show pushing up daisies? I like her in this dress.
I don’t think her hips look large in the slightest. I think she looks like an hourglass. Very Jessica Rabbit. I’ve never found her face all that gorgeous though. I’ll give it to her that she has great skin.
yes, the corset makes her body look good, but I don’t really think she’s that pretty and her boobs look saggy. She’s trying way too hard.
LOL @Becks – I was going to say the same thing!! She DOES look like Jessica Rabbit
You are all horrible! So what if she is wearing a corset, she still looks lovely.
wow tiny waist! so feminine.
In the first pic, she reminds me of Rose McGowan.
I hope that is fake fur, nothing glamorous about wearing tortured animal pelt.
That’s a very flattering dress. I love the glamorous vintage look.
its a nice christmas dress!!
I think shes just keeping the role of Holly Golightly going 24/7 and I don’t blame her. I’d love to do the same. Hope that shrug isn’t real fur though.
She is beautiful. The look is supposed to be old Hollywood dramatic, and she does it well.
Wow! I wonder where she’s headed all dressed up like that. I kind of like the corset look.
love the look – are those boobs real?
How old is she? She’s not pretty at all, but she has a nice body. For all I know she could be an excellent performer too.
That was my thought too: Jessica Rabbit
:O her face its like hilary Duff´s
Cute body, love the dress (even if it is a little Santa’s helper-ish with the shawl) but I think her hair and makeup could suit her better. I am not familiar with her but she seems a bit um, less dramatic than the old-fashioned glamor looks he is going for because of the hair and makeup maybe?
She looks good except I agree-the shawl and dress together don’t look as flattering. I think she a fine figure.
she’s not cute!
corset or not, really beautiful, perfect.
Holy cow!!! i could have sworn that is Rose McGowan in the first photo!!! I saw “Anna Friel” and thought “what???”
Beautiful dress!!! I was thinking: wow, she has the perfect hourglass figure to pull this off, but I think everyone is right about the corset. O well, nature needs a hand every once in a while. She looks as if she can hardly breathe though…
I really don’t like that thing around her neck. It looks awful!
Sorry but i hate her outfit!!
and she is always leaving this theater??!
She looks like Kate Beckinsale’s older uglier fur-whore sister. Fur is evil and cruel!! How can people still wear fur?! It is so vain and unnecessary. Have you ever heard a bunny scream?
She looks PHENOMENAL in that dress. Gross neck thing though.
She is thin, but i agree with some of the others that the corset looks strange. There’s nothing to be nostalgic about when it comes to corsets –they’re true torture devices. Her overall look here is not my cup of tea either.
I wonder how the dress fits her perfect with this corset. I guess the dress should be custom made. I kinda like that corsets are coming back in fashion. But her face is not pretty anyway.
She only wants to be seen; the weather is really really COLD in London – She is dressed as if it was still summer.
All the fur comments aside (which, by the way, I agree with, but I find unnecessary and annoying), she looks fabulous. So what if she’s wearing a corset underneath? It gives the desired effect and she looks stunning. Agreed with people who have said very Jessica Rabbit-esque, definitely. She rocks it though, and I LOVE the style of that dress, beautiful! And as for the corset, what’s wrong with a little help if it makes you look that fabulous?
fabulous.
Give me that figure please!!!! So beautiful. Love it all.
and if there was any dress to wear with a corset – this would pretty much be it.
funny how people get critical when the corset is worn under the dress. but if a typical Hollywood girl wore it as a top, it would be ’sexy’… i.e. Halloween.
I’m loving the retro-glam comeback in fashion among the stars. This is just perfect.
Wow first words that came to mind were: Jessica Rabbit.
Her dress looks animated it’s so weird. I mean she looks stunning it’s just a weird effect from the light.
Stunning stunning stunning dress! Who cares if she’s wearing a corset; it’s part of the style and it makes her look incredible. What a doll.
We need to spray her down so she looks orange and get her into a hot pink track suit ASAP. None of this London classiness allowed.
Maybe Paris can loan her that mermaid costume she’s wearing on the cover of her perfume box….
butterface. she looks perfect from the neck down. I absolutely love the dress minus the weird choker thing around the neck and that furry white shawl, the other posters are dead on, it does look like a “sexy santa’s helper” costume! LOL
I don’t know who this woman is but she is stunning! So what if she’s wearing a corset, every star you see on the red carpet is wearing spanx so why is it wrong here? All you people bitching about the fur better make sure you aren’t wearing leather shoes or having a burger or pepperoni pizza for lunch.
yeah def a corset…
that’s not natural
Very elegant. I wish I had this outfit for my company’s holiday party next week!
(p.s. the guy behind her in the last pic is a CUTIE!)
An amazing feminine figure, she is quite slim anyway but think she used a corset to emphasise the curves! Very glam!
She is really tiny usually. I think it’s the dress that’s making her look curvier.
Great little figure, fantastic actress.
All the running she does keeps her very trim.
I’m not 100% sure about the outfit? Although her waist does look perfect in it. I think it’s the brooch, silver accessories, and white fur that’s ruining the look for me. Black would have been stunning IMO.
mh :/ I don’t like the dress …she seems a kind of… santa klaus
@elm: Yeah, she really looks like Rose McGowan in the first pic. And in the last one she soo reminded me of Nicole Kidman, at least facewise. I mean, just imagine her with red hair…Anyways, she looks great!
To all of you: Who is Jessica Rabbit? I’m finnish if that counts as an excuse for not-knowing…
Google “Who Framed Roger Rabbit?”
asemalla, Jessica Rabbit is a cartoon character with the ultimate hour glass-figure.
I don’t find her to be that attractive but she rocks that dress!
She has a classic hourglass figure. Beautiful.
she is definitely wearing a corset as you can really see it under her dress. but who cares, Dita Von Teese wears a corset too.
Beautiful face and amazing figure.
This outfit looks borderline Halloween.
she reminds me of rose mcgowan–i think she’s beautiful and i loved pushing daisies!
She looks like one of those old-fashioned collector barbie dolls!
I don’t know who she is but total hourglass!
Ooo! I love corsets. She looks gorgeous and the corset is done just right, I think. Very vintage looking.
I agree darling – plus something about the dress looks cheap. She has worn some great dresses in the past though so i’ll let her off.
Of course there’s a corset under there. It’s attached to the dress on the inside- not a separate piece. It’s called a French lining. As far as the color choice is concerned. . Very tacky with the stark white and bright red. Reminds me of Mrs. Claus. I do love her though, although she looks like she lost some weight recently. I liked her figure in pushing up daisies. She has a gorgeous face
i love her classic british beauty!
Someone wrote that she looks “homely”. If that’s true, there is no hope left for us mortals. Her choice in dressing put aside, I see a gorgeous creature of the evening.
Save the choker I love everything about this dress on her. Personally I’ll pass on corsets but there’s no denying the wow factor on occasion.
I’ve already said she looks fab here, I just wanted to point out that tuffers makes a really good point, if you’re going to be stringent and vocal about not wearing fur, let’s hope you aren’t wearing leather or that you’re eating meat. I don’t feel I can justify making anti-fur comments as I currently have both a leather belt and leather shoes on, even if I do agree with the sentiments…
am I the only one she actually scares? she looks horrificly pale, horrificly skinny and very very worn out…
I’m not sure what it is, maybe her hair, but I’m not liking this look too much.
Ok FIRST OF ALL it’s not unnecessary to make anti-fur comments because unless EVERYONE is made to feel uncomfortable about wearing it it will never change. Also no I don’t wear leather, and industrialized cattle industry etc. also makes me angry.
Go to youtube and watch a Chinese (where a lot of fur comes from) fur farm video and get back to me. These animals are SKINNED ALIVE and left alive in a pile to die. Including dogs. ANYONE that funds this IS WRONG.
Being against it is valid and no one should be told to not speak out against it because of x or y. Due to defeatist attitudes nothing will change. Go back to your desensitized apathetic bubble and leave the rest of us to get on with our campaign.
Fur will not be tolerated around me, EVER. The more this becomes common the less fur will be around, the trend has been lessening anyway (no thanks to apathetic keyboard warriors though).
lovely dress, ugly shoes
great dress.. not so sure about the shoes
She isn’t ‘wearing a corset’, the dress has corsetry built in, many couture dresses do. Wearing the right clothes always helps, very few of these celebrities look ’stunning’ in ordinary clothes.
Anna Friel’s face really annoys me. It’s always so smug.
@Rosalind: I’m with you on that. She looks great but for some reason I can’t warm to her.
WOW!
She’s rockin that Marilyn Monroe-dress!!!1!
She looks great.. Nothing wrong with a corset..
The dress is amazing
I’d like to see her in nothing but the corset!
I find it funny that people are judging her fashion and makeup–it states right there in the post that she is leaving her own performance! Most actresses leave the stage door still in theatrical makeup, and sometimes still dressed up from the performance (perhaps explaining the corset here).
@AD: Anna Friel does not wear this in her performance and there was an interview with her where she said that she has loaded up her dressing room with hats and shoes and dresses to keep the press and fans entertained. Friel says: “Now the paps are hanging around the stage door every night I like to put them on to leave the theatre.”
Her waist looks fantastic!
