Why on EARTH did I write about Ashley Tisdale this morning when we have Cate Blanchett to discuss? Now this is a true "Love it or Hate it" post! What do you think about the dress Cate wore to the premiere of her new movie, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button?
Is Cate fashion forward? Or just a hot mess?

Uh…I’m not sure…she kinda looks like a Christmas fruit cake.
HATE it!
Visit my fashion blog!
Really bad!
Yuck! She looks like she’s wearing a Spanx dress.
I love that she takes risks rather than wearing some boring, tasteful black sheath.
very Haute Couture, might i add…
She is brave.
I WOULD love it, if they were two separate dresses.
I agree, it looks like two different dresses, I am not a fan. It might have worked if she didn’t have the ace bandage dress underneath.
when spanx attack!
Cate is prefection…no matter what she wears!
It’s not my taste, but the sequined part is fine. I do like that she takes risks. I can even live with the nude camisole on top. WTF is she doing with the big ace bandage around her knees, though?
is that nude looking part on the bottom supposed to show? HATE IT!
Its ……OK.
The sequined dress is fun and edgy ……. but the nude???? It would have been better if the nude sheath part was a different colour.
Jane Jetson anyone?!
wow…what???? that’s an awful outfit
I personally would never wear it… But it’s totally Cate!
I love that she wears metallics like Nicole Kidman. The woman can pull off anything, but this is not my favorite look of hers – and that is directly related to the too-tight, nude skirt under the overlay. It looks like it is a compression bandage.
It’s hard to say, the dress is kinda cute but it looks like she’s wearing a spandex bodysuit underneath
Fiore =)
LOOOOOOVE it!
I would love it minus the beige slip sticking out from the bottom-yuck!
I really, really like it until the nude part at the bottom – I think it would have looked better with black tights and black shoes or something.
i gues i’m going against everyone else but i LOVE it! i can’t even believe this is a love it or hate it! it’s not like it’s totally off the wall!
Looks like she went a little overboard with the Bedazzler…
Hot mess!
The dress is very unflattering. Sorry, but I hate it!
for the first time I do not like what she is wearing. Top part is OK but this mushroom at the bottom is not good at all.
hihihi good one
i would love it if it didn’t have that skin tight nude colored thing coming out of the bottom.
Oh Cate honey, you’re better than that. In other words, I HATE it.
On anyone else, it might inspire hatred!
But on her I think it is fun and innovative. To me, it kind of matches the idea of the movie, edgy and innovative.
I’m with dyinggiraffe on this one. Other than that, it’s kind of cool! Plus I love Cate so I give her a pass for this one.
HATE. HIDEOUS.
Good gravy! Can she walk in that dress? It looks like her thighs and knees are bound. I love Cate, and I’ll agree with the above poster who said if anybody could wear this, she could. It’s an interesting choice and will certainly be talked about…..
that’s just weird.
i want to know what it looks like when she sits down!
i like that she takes chances, and i love the fabric.
I like it, but I’ve always liked sequins!
This is awful. There are no good qualities to this outfit. She looks washed out.
i think it would’ve been better if the nude material was black instead. the colours wrong, but i love the whole idea =) i love how she takes risky decisions but is still classy, either through roles or fashion <3
WTF??? Someone has her Spanx not pulled all the way up…or is it up too far above? She is gorgeous, and rich, but someone needs to learn to tell her NO!!!
omg thats like the ugliest dress-thingy i’ve ever ever seen… wat in the world possessed her to put that on…
Curious case of a dress gone wrong
Yay! Ace Bandage ™ now makes under garments!
that’s a no
