We can always count on Isabelle Huppert to show up somewhere wearing something discussable and that was the case with both her photo call and premiere at the Berlin International Film Festival for The Blood Countess.

Surgery, but make it chic. Dr. Huppert will be handling your colonoscopy today. Don’t you feel better already? In truth, the accessories here come pretty close to ruining this outfit. When your eyes go straight to the hands and feet, perhaps you should reconsider what you’ve put on them. This would be chic and interesting if she ditched the gloves and put on a pair of black sandals or silver pumps, but without that awful high vamp. Everyone’s walking around looking like they’ve got hospital footies on.

Spank us, headmistress! We’ve been naughty! Loving that fuck-ass bob. The tie and shirt are strangely sloppy, which is a shame, because this is a look that begs for precision and impeccability. Still, it’s dramatically gorgeous on her. We’d like to suggest that once again, the gloves don’t go, although we think the outfit would be considerably less dramatic without them. We’d have liked a shorter pair.
