Mamma Mia! Look what Livia Giuggioli is wearing!
Livia Giuggioli, for the benefit of those not familiar with the name, is Colin Firth's wife, and a film producer/director. From now on, though, we suspect she'll be known as "that woman who wore the smiley face dress to the Mamma Mia! premiere", and if she was hoping that this would be her "Liz Hurley" moment, then we're sorry to have to dash those hopes...
Now, we can kind of see where she was going with this. It's bright. It's smiley. It's certainly amusing and it definitely got its wearer noticed, which we can only assume was the intention - you don't wear a dress like this if you want to fade into the background now, do you?
The bottom line, though, is that this dress turns Livia's body into a giant smiley face. With her nipples as the eyes. And we can't really get past that. Sorry, Livia.
If you don't agree, would it change your mind if we told you the back of the dress resembles a giant bumble-bee?




















That's uh, quite the dress - but hey, I think Colin Firth looks very nice.

I hate any woman who is married to Colin Firth.

I hate Colin Firth.

I like it(the front anyway), but I'd never wear it.

I love Colin Firth's slightly bemused expression here.

Oh no, look, Colin Firth's getting old! And the dress... Well... I'm speechless. Though I think it would've been very pretty, if it were just plain yellow, without the smiley face, and without the bumblebee.

Perfect "And what have you come as dear?" material. Seriously, how could he let her leave the house in that?

She's wearing a dress that signifies how she feels being married to Colin.
Smiles all the time.

Hi-de-ous. And the little lunch pail purse? Is this grade 5?
Posted by: Amanda | Jul 5, 2008 6:34:18 PM
I agree,
the purse is even worse!

The purse looks like it holds treats for her to insert into the smile/her stomach.

Maybe their child designed it. Certainly fits for the preschool crowd. Of course, she had the good taste to marry CF perhaps she can be forgiven?

The thing is, you are all jealous!
