Red Carpet: 14th Annual Hollywood Awards Gala

Oh oh oh oh little China Girl. 

We're torn here. We actually think this dress looks pretty cute on Hilary Swank. We also really like Hil's hair pulled back as it makes her look less like a horse than usual. At the same time, we think there's something cheap looking about this dress. And, then, there's the fact that she looks like she should be working at a Chinese restaurant. Stick a couple of chopsticks in her hair and the look would be complete. But we're gonna give her an IN, anyway, just because we like her hair pulled back so much.

True, Minnie Driver and Hillary Swank look like they're attending an Egyptian-themed costume party, but that's no reason not to step back and give an objective review of their chosen gowns anyway.

We absolutely love the turquoise on Minnie Driver and we love the detail, but we worry it's just a bit costumey for us. Otherwise, we love it. She looks beautiful and the dress is incredibly flattering on her. So, we say she's IN.

Hillary Swank, on the other hand, looks like she's wearing shiny bandages. We think the bottom is pretty, but the top just doesn't work for us. It bunches in an unflattering way and her hair distracts from the neckline, which even if we don't like the way it bunches, seems to be the focal point of the dress. We also think this particular metallic is washing her out. For us, Ms. Swank is OUT.
