Who Wore It Better? Lanvin Gold Metallic Dress

August 4, 2009

Do you remember when Charlize Theron wore Lanvin's gold metallic dress at The Burning Plain premiere over a year ago? Well, Jenna Elfman sported the same exact frock last night at the TCA party in Pasadena, but notice how the two styled their Lanvin creation very differently. Jenna opted for a more casual appeal, accessorizing with chandelier earrings and simple black sandals. Charlize chose to dramatize her dress with a black belt, sky-high platform pumps, patent clutch, and sleek 'do. Which blonde worked it better?

I think this is a no-brainer... it looks like a gold trash bag on Jenna. Not a great dress to begin with, but Charlize blows Jenna out of the water on this one.

Agreed with first commenter. It's not casual! I love the belt Charlize added.

Charlize looks better, but I think it's kind of an ugly dress.

Charlize all day!! She does the dress right - looks amazing. You just can't wear this Lanvin dress casually...no way. It looks a sloppy mess bc of the way Jenna wore it.

jenna looks ridiculous, charlize just looks timeless classy, as if jenna is just not carrying the look well. she looks sloppy and her posture has alot to do with it

charlize could be wearing a garbage bag and still look better than that most celebs in their fanciest couture dresses.....no contest. sorry jenna :)

No-one can look better than Charlize in anything. And Jenna seriously needs a belt on that, it makes her stomach look weird.

Jenna (who I love, so this is sad) looks like a wrapped present. Charlize works this better: posture, accesories and all.

charlize just looks SO much more polished and put together.

I think the main problem with Jenna's look is that the dress is such an awful 80's-looking dress and she wore it in such an 80's way. Charlize wears it in a much more modern way; sleek and fairly simply. Jenna looks like a crazy 80's girl...

charlize, though it looks like her feet are going to pop out of those shoes, her arches are so high!

Charlize. The belt makes the dress look so much better

Charlize looks right. The belt here should be on the waistline otherwise the outfit looks messy, and the shoes should not be so open/casual as in Jenna's case. I mean, if you want to look classy, not 'whatever'.
