Hollywood needs major lessons in boobular containment. Most of those girls were flopping all over the place, and not in good ways.
That's my girl... That's my good girl.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

If I only had a brain...
I claim that if the word "flop" can be accurately used, there is no good way.

Well, and boob building, too. I don't want everyone to look like they have implants, but you can bet your left one, that the svelte starlets of the 40s and 50s didn't manage to look flat and saggy at the same time.

I am on my 5th attempt to get anyone to pick up the phone at the Drs office. I have tried 2 different extentions and I know they are not closed. RIdiculous.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Salma was so beautiful she made Penelope Cruz look fugly when they presented together--quite a feat.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Maybe Salma bribed Penelope's stylist to attach the butt bow.

I didn't think Penelope's butt bow was problematic. It echoed an old form of bustles (I don't know my clothing eras), that I like. In general, I think butt bows are evil, but I thought it worked okay on her. Like Cate, Penelope is another person I wouldn't have put in yellow because of her coloring, but I think it looked great on her. I have a hard time with yellows, so I tend to always say NO, but they can be so appealing.

Oh, it so was. First, she has no butt to hold it up. Second, it looked like it had been clipped on at the last second with a safety pin. Third, it was a butt bow.

I agree with Kat's assessment -- the dress's cut did nothing for Penelope. Her curves were missing well before she had to stand next to Miss Hayek.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Based on photos in this morning's papers, I am noticing a big trend towards the topless dress. What is that all about? Even on the flat, they were not flattering, and all I could do was look at a photo of Virginia Madsen and think cleavage sweat. Pretty color dress, but, cleavage sweat.
Also, dresses that go all the way to the floor, and sometimes drag. (Above and beyond this trend was Gwyneth Paltrow, who was wearing curtain flounces like somebody had pinned the excess fabric to her pantyhose, or something.) Has Hollywood finally twigged to the fact that 3-inch stiletto sandals make feet look like chicken claws?
