Fashion faceoff: Who wore Chanel better?

Photobucket

The perfect LBD. The lacey Chanel number seems to be a classic must among celebrities as both Ali Larter and Claudia Schiffer were photographed sporting the same dress.

Larter wore the Chanel dress to the 33rd Annual American Women in Radio & Television's Gracie Allen Awards. The Heroes actress complimented the dress with her YSL star detail sandals and minimum jewelery. I think she looks good, but there's something missing, the dress should really should be a jaw dropper, but it's a bit plain for m on Larter. Perhaps a clutch or unique jewelry would have added the wow factor in.

Uber model, Claudia Schiffer was photographed wearing the same frock last year back in November as she attended the Dom Perigon Party hosted in Paris. Schiffer kept to the straps of the dress, which i thought was a wise move, and accessorised with a simple black clutch and heels. She looks stunning, her porcelain skin goes well with the lace dress.

Overall, Claudia has my vote, being a supermodel she does have the advantage, but i think the straps on the dress made quite a difference.

Straight off the runway: Kate Hudson

Kate Hudson stepped out for the night to celebrate her partnership with David Babaii for their new hair care line 'David Babaii for WildAid' at ABC Carpet and Home yesterday in New York City. Hudson stopped by the Late Night Show with Conan O’Brien to promote the product which is an innovative new brand of professional haircare products and styling tools that are are free of sulfates, parabens, animal products and animal testing. A percentage of the revenue from the line will benefit the global wildlife conservation organization WildAid.

Hudson donned an unusual Zac Posen dress from the designers 2009 Resort collection, which mind you, was only presented last week (the benefits of being an A-lister celebrity). The dress is very unusual, and on anyone else would probably look horrible, however, Hudson works it really well.
