If you’re a regular Fashion Police reader, you’re probably a little surprised to see Kirsten Dunst being awarded the coveted Gold Star. Trust us when we tell you that we are, too. Yes, it’s been a few long years in the fashion wilderness for Kiki, and at times we thought she might never claw her way back. It’s hard to recover from oufits like this one, for instance:
(Don’t worry, that’s one of our officers escorting her out of the building. She did five years for this crime.)
Recover she has, though, and the Kirsten Dunst who stands before us now, at a screening of Melancholia at the Cannes Film Festival is looking pretty darn good, no? We absolutely love the colour of this Chloe dress. It’s not the easiest colour to wear, sure, but if you can pull it off, it’s a colour that’s always guaranteed to stand out. Would we have been tempted to add a belt, just to define the waist a little more? Well, maybe. But we add belts to everything, so we’re not best placed to comment on that one.
Kirsten wore this dress with Jimmy Choo sandals, and was accompanied by co-star Charlotte Gainsbourg, who was her usual understated self in black.
OK, little convict girl, we know you probably don’t want to show your face in this outfit – and we don’t blame you – buy we’re going to have to ask you to turn around so the nice Fashion Police detectives can see what you’re wearing:
Yes, it’s as we thought: THIS, reminds us of….
THIS. Only… more humiliating. Would YOU want to walk around in public in skin tight, camel-toe-inducing lycra? You would? You will LOVE our new inmate uniforms, in that case! And if you have a spare $40 floating around, you can buy one for your very own. Click here to do it…
She’s had two recent brushes with the (Fashion Police) law this week, so here’s a quick look at Cheryl Cole getting it right: or more so than she has been, anyway.
This bright orange mini dress is by Giambattista Valli, and is a much better attempt at colourful dressing than Cheryl’s colourblock ensemble. The look owes a lot to the simplicity of the dress, which allows the colour to be the stand-out point, and Cheryl looks comfortable and relaxed in it, which is always a good thing.
This is expensive for a newspaper, but actually pretty cheap for a Kate Spade bag… which is lucky, because that’s what it is.
The idea of making clutch bags look like newspapers or magazines isn’t a new one, of course, but we wondered what you all think of it. Do you love the idea of spending $125 on the “New York Journal”, or do you just worry you’d end up throwing it in the trash by mistake?
Seriously: is there any reason in the ENTIRE WORLD why Converse should suddenly need to have a thong front?
No, really: Converse have managed to exist for many, many years so far WITHOUT needing to have a thong front. And we’ve all managed perfectly well without thong-front Converse, too. If we need thongs, we’ll buy thongs. If we need Converse, we’ll buy…thongs, apparently.
Why has this come to pass, readers? And do you want to wear it?

Another day, another Pirates of the Caribbean premiere, and another killer outfit for Penelope Cruz.
For the Munich premiere of On Stranger tides, Penelope wore red Armani Prive. The simplicity of the cut is offset here by the vibrancy of the colour, and we think she looks fantastic. We’re not so sure about the matchy-matchy accessories, though – Pen accessorized here with a bag and shoes in exactly the same shade of red as her dress. Might it have looked better with a contrasting colour, we wonder?
