Filed under: Fashion Smashion

You either love it or you hate it.

We're feeling the hateration!

Jennifer Connolly made a bold choice for the Costume Institute Gala at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC on Monday night.

The only person that could pull this look off is Michele Pfeiffer in Scarface.

Or maybe Gwen Stefani!

    Seriously, can she not afford for some waxing or plucking on those bushes above her eyes. She's almost sporting a unibrow. Yuck.

    She never looks good at the entertainment functions; not polished enough. That too strong brow with unflattering color palette on her lips & cheeks. CONNOLLY tends to go without stockings which make her look like she got dressed in a locker room. Overall, she looks a like blue collar gal who tried but couldn't carry couture . . . .

    I am rolling over in my grave. I hate you, Nicholas. Look what you have done to tarnish my name.

    Lousy hair. Could've made a little effort! The dress might have worked with more volume.

    Honey where do I start, it looks like she took the waiters tuxedo and and made it into a dress , if you can call that disaster a dress more like pilgrim chic

    Hate it. Plus I'm all for embracing ones own beauty and look and I have brooke shields eyebrows myself, but gf needs to get those wooly boogers waxed and shaped and get a smidge of color. She always looks angry and sick.

    P.S. Perez why arent you listing what designer they are all wearing? I like to get the info.

    NO! She used to have big tits! Now she looks like she's going to be showing up on The L word. Love that show. The characters are terrific.

    With that unibrow she looks like one of the polygamist wives.

    This is the most unflattering thing I've ever seen her in. Considering the event, I think she should've worn the dress from Labyrinth!

    she's one of my fave movie stars and one of the best looking gals in the biz. working 2day.

    but the dress does not suit her and her makeup looks pasty.

    #57 Acidtrash and #54 Mario are the only smart ones here! I can't believe I'm wasting my time here but class is boring! This is fresh off the Balenciaga Runway and Nicholas did a fantastic job!! You all are no fashionistas to be bashing on someone, I may be doing it now but at least I have a reason, you all are Hollywood posers!! How about you all pretend you have an amazing life and buy your fake Louis Vuitton or Chanel bags and fake Dior glasses!! Yeah, if I just described you, do us all a big favor please and just stop being retarded poser!!

    I fucking LOVE this outfit! Perez, you have no taste. You drool over that Blond Brittish boy (Deyn) with the dark eyebrows and hate on the Oscar winner. Only in your world, "dude."

    It looks beautiful, very simple. I'm guessing it's Yves Saint Laurent..you can never go wrong with YSL.

    Black stockings would have helped.

  81. Claudiapaola says – reply to this

    it's not so much the dress that makes her look bad, its the hair style, her pose and her makeup. Though I admit that the dress is simple, and oddly cut in shape and style, but put that dress on a stunning pose and curvasious body, and you have a different dress.

  82. jackie says – reply to this

    looks like she bought that dress at a garage sale
