Battle of the Versace: Ricci vs. Versace

October 21, 2008

It's one thing to battle it out with other gorgeous women in one of the sexiest designers of today. It's another to battle it out with the woman who designed said sexy clothes. Leave it to vixen Christina Ricci to wear an embellished body-hugging atelier Versace to the Whitney Museum American Art Gala. However, Donatella herself wore a slippery, shiny floor-grazing gown — also nice and tight. As well, these dresses are sultry neutrals. Who rules her Versace here?

Both are fab, but I love Christina's dress better

Both dresses are gorgeous, but Christina totally pulled hers off better :)

From the make-up and hair to the dress (and her gorgeous back!), Ricci won this round.

I agree with Shopaholichunny, if only they switched the dresses!

You'd think Donatella Versace would have enough sense to ditch the tan-and-bleached look by now...

I feel like I've seen Donatella's dress before, while Christina's is fresh and inspiring . . .plus she looks perfectly put together and classy-Christina wins hands down

Satin is such a unforgiving fabric and so hard to pull off, but Christina's dress fits so perfectly! It's so her, too - elegant but quirky. I'd love to see the back.

Donatella's dress is better, but Christina looks better...

Christina looks amazing, so my vote goes to her. Donatella also has a beautiful gown however the fake blonde hair & oompa-loompa tan (w/ lip injections) tends to ruin a look.

Christina! I like Donatella's dress better though.

Ricci looks absolutely gorgeous. Both dresses are fabulous, but I think I prefer Ricci's.

Brian, I know what you meant. I was just commenting in general. I was having a discussion with a co-worker who said Donatella HAS to look the best since she designed it. The dress she is wearing is gorgeous, but Christina pulled it off better. :)

Ricci looks better...Donatella's dress is too tight on her.

I just meant the dress is hotter Rosa, not that she looks better.

Christina looks gorgeous. Because Donatella designed it doesn't mean she has to look good in it. Donatella looks like Alexis Baldwin trying to look classy.

In all fairness allourregrets, LL can't pull off side boob period. Its all about how much stuff you got. If you have bigger hips and butt like our favorite GG you can't wear things as short as Gwenyth Paltrow. Same thing goes for breasts, the larger they are the more you have to cover in order to look tasteful. Models rarely look sleazy because they lack both. Its nothing personal its just body type. I have a big butt so I would never wear the bleached cut off trend. I would look so skanky. Plus LL doesn't seem to know when to wear hair up...

I mean, that dress was made by Donatella so its of course gonna be the hottest. But Christina looks gorgeous.

Jessiebanana 4 years 30 weeks

I like both of the dresses, in fact I probably like Donatella's dress better, but her orange face and tacky bleach blond hair kills any preference. Christina looks better hands down for pulling off the whole look with elegance.

Both the dresses are gorgeous. But over all Christina looks better. The grey dress is really unique looking, while the purple one is a bit cliche. Note to Lindsey Lohan, this is how to do the side boob, without looking sleezy.

Ummmm I like Donatella's dress MORE but I like Ricci's face better. :p
