Angelina Jolie's fashion finale at Cannes

Angelina's Pregnancy Fashion Show

Hmmm. Perhaps this is one of those dresses that looks better in person. Because if Angelina knows anything, it's how to dress herself for maximum flatteringness. Usually.

Somehow, this gown, which she wore to the premiere of The Changeling, her new film with Clint Eastwood that sounds dirge-like and award-winning, misses the mark for us.

True, we're not fans of Angie. We find her rather humorless and superior. However, she works hard for humanitarian causes, and she's enceinte so we'll try to find a positive angle.

Despite the dreary color and trashbag shape, the embellished neck on Angelina's gown draws attention up to her Madonna-like smile and glowing skin.

Of course, we could see it better if she'd bothered to put her hair up.

I totally agree. I can only assume that the people at styledash prefer a Brittney Speaks type. Or Beyonce in limited dress. Brad and Angelina have choosen to live their lives with more respect then many of the craized married stars .

She is also pregnant with twins. You want a bikini?? No you just want to trash someone who isn't busy showing off her "baby bump" stupid name for pregnancy. At least she is't nude on the cover of some magazine. SHe has got more class than the moron who wrote the article.

I agree with Lotus. She's pregnant. And whatever is
comfortable, wear it. Who are these snotholes anyway?
Been there. You don't always feel glamorous.

I agree with Lotus. What do people expect a woman carrying twins
to wear? Whatever she pleases is the right answer to his one!

My sister is pregnant with twins and she doesn't wear dresses that look like garbage bags. If you walk into a maternity store, there are TONS of dresses, AND they make thing specially for women carrying twins.

OH PLEEZ.

She is a total publicity hound and loves the attention. And she looked fabulous on all the other days at Cannes.

Pregnant or not, she missed the boat with this dress, and if she wants us to pant after her on the good days then she has to deal with the criticism on the bad days.

She's absolutely beautiful even if you're not a fan. I have been pregnant 4 time's never with twins, I can't imagine having to go out into a crowd and trying to look great; sometimes you just don't feel like it. I imagine you would want to wear the most comfortable thing you can find and the hell with what people think. I'm not a fan of pregnant women walking around with their bellies hanging out from under their shirts, which is why I'm sure you're upset, that's the picture you wanted.

Oh good golly! You said it, she WAS there all the other days, and up running around doing interviews and promotions-you do that carrying 30 extra pounds of baby and water and see if you don't opt out for something a little comfortable just ONE day.

Get off her back! Get REAL...Have you ever carried twins? WELL, I have and its not the most comfortable thing to walk around carrying all that moving, living bulk. Clothing is necessary for appearances, out of the house-but cut her some slack. Rich, beautiful or not...its only a dress and after all, she is promoting her WORK...not her designer.

I would assume she dressed for comfort not to get on a best dressed list. And I'm all for comfort.

Good grief! It's a caftan - not a mumu, and she is carrying twins. Leave her alone....

I'm not a big fan of Angelina Jolie either, but come on! She's pregnant with twins, has been promoting her other movie (the cartoon) over in Cannes. She's got to be tired. She has been wearing fashionable clothes. This looks like a nice pleated caftan type gown with no restrictions on her body. Her hair and make-up look fine as do her accessories. Geez, give her a break!

She always looks amazing. It must be very difficult to carry twins and look great all the time and with an incredible travel schedule.

our fave look of recent was the gorgeous green gown! stunning

have fun

lol She is beautiful and doesn't need glam. She still looks great.Of course you don't know her very well to find her humorless. And most people find others superior because they feel inferior.

Wow!! I'm not a fan of hers, but it must be very uncomfortable being that pregnant, however, there must be something else for her to wear aside from the drapes from the hotel room.
