Helena Christensen wore a Preen ‘Dawn’ citrus-flower-embroidered navy-and-lime-green three-quarter-sleeve dress featuring a solid lime-green back panel while attending Matches Fashion’s celebration of their Rika Magazine partnership.
Her demure dress with striking, vibrant embroidery was styled with simple black pumps.
Fellow model Jodie Kidd wore the same dress while attending the evening to celebrate the Global Fund last month.
This is a perfect example of how accessories can elevate a look. Jodie’s sexy lace Jimmy Choos, bracelets and a black clutch add so much more to the look than Helena’s simple pumps.
An easy win for Jodie.

Helena easily. The dress maybe demure but with the vivid embroidery it’s striking on its own and speaks for itslef, it clearly didn’t need any elevation via excessve bracelets, not to mention that the dress works on Helen’s frame to perfection, and her simple, elegant pumps keep it classy and event-apropriate. Helen wore it perfectly.
Jodi wins for me because of the shoes, bracelets, and clutch, but I am not fond of her slicked back hair.
I agree totally. Somehow I like it on Helena better b/c I guess she looks less severe. But I still voted for Jodi b/c I appreciated her accessorization so much more.
helena all the way. Jodie shoes are good but her jewels seem unnecessary.
For me this is like comparing apples to oranges. Helena’s wearing this for daytime while Jodie’s wearing it for night. It’s easy enough to throw on a pair of sexy sandals, but I’m quite charmed by how well Helena’s wearing it during the day. So, I voted for her.
+1
+2. My thoughts exactly when it comes to wearing it for daytime versus night. Plus I actually found slight fault with Jodie’s version for night-time: I’m not a fan of the bangles, as I don’t like the way they ‘double up’ the visual line of the lime-green bands on the sleeve cuffs. And I generally felt the dress was so pretty it hardly needed accessorising; and I prefer Helena’s hair! So Helena wins for me too.
Jodie.
Helena for me.
