Fashion Faceoff: Eva Green @ Christian Dior HC

Fashion Faceoff: Eva Green @ Christian Dior HC

Eva Green shocked in a hot pink kimono-style dress at the Christian Dior Fall 2007 couture collection on Monday at John Galliano’s Haute-Couture Fall-Winter 2008 collection presentation held at ‘l Orangerie’ of the Versailles Castle near Paris, France. The Bond girl finished off her look with the same bold pair of pink heels as the runway model, just tied up her legs a little bit higher.

To the right, British supermodel Rachel Alexander.

Who wore it best — EVA GREEN or THE RUNWAY MODEL?

ewwww, what a horrible dress! okay i know, the fashion industry is all about taking risks but talk about RISKSS! in order to take a risk, you have to produce a beautiful, yet interesting style of fashion. eva did not rock it. i can understand why it was in the fashion show but it IS NOT something you wear and walk with.

neither wins. dress is horrible. but seriously, what’s up with eva’s hair? she even copied the runaway model’s shoes! lol.

p.s i love the make= up on the runaway model and sorry if i was too harsh on eva.

I think the model wins because of the matching makeup.

Weird dresses lately, like old draping curtains, twisted around a shoulder or a waist and voila … High Couture! … lol

That’s not a kinomo style. Obviously it’s a cheong sam style.
f __uc____k all the ignorant Westerners.

# 4

Kimono? Kimono? All the Japaneses dress makers out there are throwing up right now!!

# 5

Western people ripped the f___ k off the traditional cheong sam and called it kinomo. F____________K

# 6

that thing is hideous no matter who’s wearing it.

no thank you. eva has always had a crazy sense of style. honestly, the model wins simply because she seems to be wearing the dress as more of a costume-y type thing. eva honestly seems to think this dress could be worn anywhere–not so.

# 8

Honestly, I think Eva Green!

She’s beautiful!

# 9

They look the same to me.

Model. Because the model knows how to work it despite wearing an ugly dress!

Could someone please get Eva Green a stylist??

Yikes…neither they both look very scary :{

The model, and that dress needs to stay on the runway!

My chinese take-out food wore it best.

What?

This isn’t the box my dinner came in?

My bad.

none of the above

errr, does she think that looks god? pff. bond f*cking girl she aint.

Dior is french, so don’t blame America for this peice of ****.

Eva is a craaazy and always wearing crazy things

for AMY

It’s Haute-Couture and 50% of the clothes are weird so SHUT UP..

THANK YOU

I like how Eva Green is willing to take chances and express herself. She seems a lot more interesting than anyone you would find in Hollywood.

Weird, but I still think it’s ugly. I understand that a lot of high fashion is weird, but that doesn’t stop me from thinking this one is ugly.

And geek, as for the assertion that westerners are messing things up other culture’s by being “ignorant”. It’s art. People can take influences if they’d like. If we stuck to only American influences you’d be calling us closed minded. We can’t ever do anything right, can we? It says nowhere in this article that the line claims it to be a traditional Japanese Kimono. And you’re a complete loose canon for bringing in who will be a world superpower to a fashion thread.

it’s called haute couture for a reason. it’s less fashion, more art. you’re not going to see people wearing these things on the street because 1) everything’s hand made. literally hand sewn including all the embroideries. impressive right? 2) because it’s done with such care it also costs a lot of money. and people only wear these things to other couture shows and some are altered slightly for award shows and special event. don’t hate on things without knowing what they’re really meant to be

This dress is so weird and funny that I actually like it.

None, nobody can pull off that dress.

Rachel, it was meant for the runway

Or to wear to fancy dress parties … lol

thats not a kimono. but stuff like that needs to stay on the runway, so if i have to pick, the model wins.

Not one person has mentioned that SHE IS JOHN GALLIANO’S NEW MUSE FOR FOR DIOR! It is haute couture, and I guess if you are the face for Dior, you should wear it to the fall haute couture show!
You can check out Dior’s Midnight Poison photo preview, with Eva in it here:

And Eva is on the cover of French fashion magazine Madame Figaro with John Galliano here:

And Eva wears it better in my opinion!

The model..but she looks like an early 90’s club kid with that makeup

WTF!! Love the color. Horrible style dress!

I love her dress, but the shoes are fugly.

Also people seem to take fashion a bit too seriously. Look at all those morose faces in the crowd. yawn.

I don’t think that dress was meant to be worn somewhere other than a fashion show

Points for the moxie to don that piece. The cheongsam base is really pretty; hell, I’d rock it (without all that frill, that is!)

1st time i’ve run across this: this one’s eva’s! she actually has the body, and more importantly, the requisite face to carry off this confection. ‘bravo’ for having the guts to wear it, and ‘thank you’ for actually being able to do it well.

That “dress” looks like something you’d see someone wearing in one of those crazy Japanese shows. Not digging it.

Eva! Eva Foreva! Love it!

yeah it’s haute couture, sophisticated and stuff but give me a break it’s HIDEOUS and UGLY, no matter how much it costed!!!!

hahaha, nice pics of Eva.

Check out my site, it got tons of her pics:

fuking ugly dress fking ugly shoes

I give Eva credits for being a fashion risk taker. She makes fashion exciting. If Jennifer Aniston is to appear on the red carpet then her fashion choice would be a boring black dress. Nothing to discuss about. Can you imagine fashion events with people wearing all black? How boring would it be. I personally think the dress is creative. I can understand why people think it’s too much.

I simply love her style, she´s so exotic and beautiful; i love this dress on her!

model looks very beautiful, Eva looks horrible

Neither one. I am all for taking risks, originality etc, but that dress is just plain ugly. Eva is a stunning woman, though.
