Bella Heathcote was one of the many gorgeous Gucci girls to take to the red carpet for the ‘Once Upon a Time in America’ Gucci Film Foundation Cannes Film Festival premiere back in May.
The Australian actress opted for this beautiful gold-print gown from the Fall 2012 collection which she styled with a sweeping updo, Bulgari jewels and a black Gucci clutch.
A month later Gucci ambassador Li Bingbing wore the same dress to the closing ceremony of the 15th Shanghai Film Festival in China.
The styling and makeup are much the same except Li Bingbing opted for a studded clutch and tasselled earrings.
I had to stare at this one for a while as there is not much in it.
In the end I went for Bella as I prefer her look without the earrings and with the simpler clutch.

Li wins it for me mostly because I like this dress better on a brunette.

I am utterly mesmerized by Bella’s face, but I think the dress suits Li better.
I like Li’s look better. I like her accessories more.
Bella for me.
Much prefer the dress on Li with her colouring, as well as her accessories that actually work beautifully here imo. It feels like Bella’s look is missing something, a more inspiring makeup at least.
