    Cruz for me. I hope Diane Kruger in Herve Leger doesn’t win. That was a very generic and boring outfit for her. I prefer the Louis Vuitton one.

    Close behind Cruz are Blanchett and Byrne.

    I’m surprised you put Amy Adams there considering you weren’t a fan of her outfit.

      This poll is for the readers the site. It’s not to pick my favourite.

      Enough people wanted her to be on this list so there’s no reason why I should not respect their wishes.

      They are voting for their favourite after all.

    it took me forever to choose. seriously…forever. rose byrne looked absolutely amazing. i wanted to vote for her, but penelope got my vote. she’s absolutely glowing in that outfit. she looks the best she’s looked in a while. also ashley roberts is stunning in that mcqueen dress but again she loses to the amazing-ocity of peneople. and diane also looked great in herve leger…but once again….penelope beats her for me.

    My girl Diane did it again. LOVE HER. Only she could impress me wearing Herve Leger. Her LV look comes in second for me, with Cate rounding out my top three.

    In a normal week Rose Byrne would’ve clinched it for me but this week I just had to go with one of the scarlet ladies. I didn’t think anyone could top Georgina’s breathtaking look but then along came Penelope and Cate at the last minute…seriously conflicted!

      I feel your pain. Normally I know by now, but I can’t decide.

      The ones you have mention are twisting me in knots.

    Sienna in gucci was the first to wow me this week so I voted for her. Close behind her are Georgina, Cate and Penelope!

    It was between Anna, Cate, Ashley and Sienna
    In the end I went for Cate, she is flawless.

    Oh! I didnt realize Penelope was on the list! I really love her outfit. I want her to win this better than Diane in Herve Leger. I lover Diane but I dont think this is one of her best looks.

    I was sure Rose Byrne would be my choice this week, although Mary Lynn Rajskub might give me pause as she looked so fresh and cute………but suddenly there she is, the beauteous Cate in a vintage dress that’s spectacular simply cause it’s so easy and yet dramatic too….aggghhhhh, indecision!

    i ADORE rose byrne’s outfit, it is simple, classy, and totally chic! i love that the dress complements her natural beauty but doesn’t overshadow it, she is the picture of perfection!

    You know what would be really cool? A worst dressed list!!

    Besides that, AShley Roberts McQueen is just to-die-for. I need that in my life.

    First I was going to vote for Rose, then Sienna, but then JUST before i go to vote, i see Cate. Who thought Cate could wear a colour like that and look flawless?

  18. Linda August 1, 2009 at 05:05 #

    I picked Cate with Mary Lynn a close second. How come you didn’t put Dita Von Teese in the nude dress and Christina Hendrix in the green dress? I thought they both looked fantastic too.

    Reply
    • Fashion Critic August 1, 2009 at 10:35 #

      there’s already 12 on the list and neither Dita nor Christina were strong contenders.

      Dita’s look is nothing we haven’t seen a billion times before and Christina’s was wearing a simple green dress, with ruffle sleeves. I don’t see that they are good enough to go up against Cate, Georgina, Sienna and Penelope.

    Chose Sienna – So unpredictable and she looks fieeerce!

    I love this look on Cate. I’ve not seen her in this shape very often (the last time I call recall is the multi-coloured Valentino gown she wore to the Golden Globes back in 2003 – Cate tragic, I know), but she carries it off beautifully here. So my vote definitely goes to Cate the Great.

    She’s actually the covergirl for Vogue Australia’s 50th anniversary issue, captured by London based illustrator David Downton, wearing Balenciaga, Martin Grant, Alexander McQueen and Armani on four different versions of the cover. I’ve seen an advance copy – stunning and unique beyond belief. This one’s definitely a collector’s edition.

    Have a good weekend all.

    At first I was going for Diane but then along came Cate and Penelope at the end of the week. Now every time I see Georgina I like her look more!!

    Cate Blanchett. She looks soooo good! :)

    Cate looks FABULOUS!!!!!
    I don’t think Diane looks that good, this look is a little boring for me… Hope Cate gets more votes!

    BTW Ashley u look so sexy!!

    Diane Kruger winning for Herve Leger? What a joke. Her red carpet style has gone a bit downhill. Such a boring outfit.

  25. Gaber August 1, 2009 at 12:35 #

    Ashley Roberts.
    There were a few other options I considered – Anna and Sienna, plus being magically drawn to Rose – but in the end it HAD to be Ashley.
    I absolutely love that look.

    why don’t you put Ciara in Marchesa?
    I love her jumpsuit…. too bad…

    but my favorite are the beautiful Georgina Chapman in Marchesa, Ashley Roberts in McQueen, Sienna Miller in Gucci and Diane Kruger in Herve Leger.

    But I voted for Rose Bryne in Christian Cota
    She looked ultra fabulous. She’s my girl crush of the moment

      because it was clear that not many other people like the look.

    C’mon Cate! I adore Cate Blanchett because she’s wearing a fierce shade of red (not white) but still looks delicate and ethereal. Her personality enhances the clothes, not the other way round. Love her.

    I wanna take a stab at a guess of who your gonna pick Fashion Critic! Id say either Penelope Cruz, or Ashley Roberts, cos we all like seeing a girl who usually doesnt look chic in something amazing! So Ashley Roberts..I went for her, lets see who ya pick!
    Love the site.

    I’ll just say it… Penelope Cruz hands down.

    Although, Diane, Cate and Rose are not too bad either.

    Btw, I started working recently and just a few days after that my connection at home got broken. For some reason your website is blocked on the computer at work, so now I have so much to catch up with. Phew!

    I hope Penelope Cruz is chosen at least by FC. Because looks like she won’t in the readers poll :(

    I love Diane and she looks awesome, but for me it has to be Cate this week. She looks amazing in that red dress.

    hated the red lipstick on diane…but she looked amazing in vuitton. great color on her

    Fabulous. What a great way to start the week. A quick side note: I was reading in one of our Sydney Sunday newspapers today that Cate apparently said that she doesn’t have a stylist. Perhaps she has had little need for one recently because her red carpet appearances (unfortunately) have been few and far between.

    I’m glad that at least Cate is joint 1st. Diane doesn’t really deserve to be first place. I much preferred the LV outfit.
