2011 amfAR’s Cinema Against AIDS Gala

Posted on May 20, 2011

Darlings, it was the 2011 amfAR Cinema Against AIDS Gala during the 64th Annual Cannes Film Festival and everyone showed up in a crappy dress! Seriously, we don’t know what happened here. Maybe they’re all scraping the bottom of their luggage because they’ve worn all the good dresses to the festival already. Whatever the cause, there was a lot of ass on that red carpet. Brace yourselves.

WHAT is going ON with that HAIR? Never mind the dress, which looks awful on her; we can’t take our eyes off that thing on her head. What was her stylist thinking?

It’s kind of her thing to take couture and make it work for her in a sloppy rock chick kind of way. Sometimes it works; sometimes it doesn’t. This almost works but we hate that the only bit of color was removed. It’s a more interesting dress with the shoulders.

Everyone else is wearing a gown, so this seems a little less formal than it should be. It also makes her look like a robot girl. Not exactly a “flirty and feminine” -style dress.

She looks fine, but some color would have been welcome and it would have been nice if she’d done something with her hair.

PinGwen Stefani in L.A.M.B.

Enh. It’s all right. Nothing to get excited about. It says something that she always looks less interesting when she’s wearing something from her own line.

PinJane Fonda in Roberto Cavalli

Okay, someone’s taking that “cougar” thing a little too literally. She looks great, though.

PinJanet Jackson in Haider Ackermann

We did a little gasp when we saw this. Janet doesn’t wear color that often, but these two shades look beautiful on her. It’s very much her style – covered from top to bottom – but there’s an elegant drape to it that looks good on her.

It’s pretty but a bit washed out.

A great-looking dress made a little less great-looking be a silly pose. Is she putting her car keys in her pocket?

PinRosario Dawson in Roberto Cavalli

Was the theme for the night “colorless dresses?” Because man, this is turning out to be one dishwater-dull red carpet. Not that we hate this. In fact, it’s pretty. Not sure about the way the bodice extends over the hips, though.

Okay, her hair and makeup are a little weird, but girl brought it in the dress department. What a gorgeous look. Suits her to a tee. We go back and forth on the removal of the rose at the waist, but ultimately, we think the dress looks more sophisticated without it.
