Like Karolina Kurkova, Evan Rachel Wood stepped out twice this week wearing similar all-black looks with the commonality being halter necklines.
On Tuesday, she wore a black halter dress for the Vanity Fair Tribeca Film Festival Opening Party, followed by an almost-identical black Cut25 by Yigal Azrouël Spring 2013 layered modal maxi dress to the Tribeca Film Festival Juror Welcome Luncheon on Thursday.
With fellow mother-to-be Halle Berry setting the maternity style bar incredibly high, I can’t help but be slightly underwhelmed by both looks.

I like the first look better, but she really should’ve done a bit more, to make both looks more interesting.
Halle Berry may be opting for bolder looks but they do not necessarily work as maternity style. Her black with lace panels Monique Lhuillier look in particular at Rio de Janeiro premiere was a disaster in my book, a really poor choice to show off a baby bump.
While I do think that Evan’s 2nd long black look is on a dull drab side (she needed some statement accessories at least to elevate it a bit), her 1st one is a great way to dress up a baby bump – black is a bit boring but the dress is still flattering, she looks classy and sophisticated.
ITA!
+1–to all of it.

I couldn’t agree more.
I like Evan R Wood’s style better than Halle’s. Yes it’s a little bit safe but it’s flattering (especially the first look) and not tacky which can’t be said about Miss Berry even if I love her.
I totally disagree, especially with the first outfit. I saw a few more photos of her from other angles and she was absolutely luminescent. The other dress, whilst not having a lot of bells and whistles, is very chic and appears to be incredibly comfortable. Kim Kardashian should take note.
Not bad.
I actually prefer Evan’s maternity style. It’s a 1000 times classier.
I like both looks, most of all the second one. She looks beautiful and classy.
I also prefer her chic, classy look over Halle Berry’s “bold” look any day. Just as importantly she looks comfortable. And serene…
I actually very much like this look. I think it looks chic. I don’t fancy Halle Berry’s edgy take on maternity wear, and though I agree this feels just a tad too much understated, I still have in fresh memory Bryce Dallas Howard’s “yes I’m wearing a tent” approach. So this just works for me.
I’m not a fan of Halle’s style, maternity or otherwise. Her maternity looks have been sadly pretty tacky imo.
Evan looks a lot more elegant. I do really like her first look here, though it is all black–she should have added a pop of color with shoes and a clutch. However, the second look doesn’t work as it’s just too overwhelming and plain. I think she could rock some great looks, though, and I’m looking forward to her style more than I am to Halle’s.
evan is much further along than halle is. she looks very elegant and classy in her looks, just because they are black doesn’t mean they are boring.
