Wintour's dress looks like a ram's head is stuck up her butt, with its horns wrapped around her hips. I don't see the Botticelli reference at all--she isn't naked, she isn't curvy, and she doesn't have long, soft, flowing hair. The shoulders of the dress make me think of Star Trek.

1. I really think the Olsen's are Siamese twins. Conjoined at the hip. Yuck. 2. I feel a lot better about whats in my closet after seeing most of those dresses. Did no one tell the present Mrs Trump that there'd be a red carpet? I like to LISTEN to The Clash, not look at hot pink on red! Katie Holmes...ok, did she look at her feet? Blue shoes??? Anna Wintour promoting the next Star Wars film? I bet Mr Blackwell had a field day.

Why is Katie Holmes trying to look like Naomi Campbell? And yes, Maggie is hot. And Giselle and Tom look PS'd.

Someone should make a salt and pepper set where one is Katie Holmes and one is Anna Wintour.

Tom Cruse apparently just got back from West Point where he's been stalking 'chicken' in his faux cadet outfit. He didn't have time to change and Katie didn't have time to bathe. L. Ron Hubbard is puking in his grave.

Maggie by far wore the best dress out of these...Katie, Melania, and Sarah all looked pretty cute given the theme. But the rest? Yikes!

Did anyone else think the picture of Gisele and Brady made them look like cardboard cutouts? And Tom Cruise is really short.

"appearance of Botticelli’s Venus on her clamshell." Okay, she looked cool but, really? Botticelli's Venus? As a gay male fashion designer, I think I actually speak for a lot of us when I say shut the fuck up to all you faggy goddamned fashion editors. Stop writing trite bullshit like this. She looked NOTHING like Botticelli's Venus, you just used a trite art history reference to bring some validity to your vapid profession.

"Ugly" is the new "pretty" in hollywood.

Tom Cruise has destroyed Katie Holmes looks. The girl from Dawson's Creek is gone.

Those Olsen twins are fat too. What a couple of disgusting fat pigs they are. They need to quit dumpster-diving behind Dunkin Donuts and stick their fingers down their throats like every respectable overexposed demi-celebrity whore on crack.

Trump's fat, and Maggie is all that.

Posh (Goddamnit, I hate calling her that, what's her real name??) couldn't find a dress that had a slit that came up higher??? Christ, I think I see fur.

Giselle Bundchen should know that the hotter you are, the less desperate you have to dress. That is not what she's doing here. She looks like a hooker cruising 5th Ave and 82nd St. On the other hand, the Olsen twins should stop appearing together. Ever. Desperation and drugged-out incest are a bad theme unless they want to participate in a certain Brooklyn film production mentioned earlier. As for Katie Holmes, I used to have a huge crush on her. That is now over. What the hell?

At least Anna Wintour wore an actual costume to the costume gala.

I think the Olsen Twins make out with each other on the down low.
