Jennifer Lopez vs Natasha Poly in Gucci

Wow. I bet Jenny from the block was wishing she’d kept it a bit more ‘real’ when these pictures emerged of Natasha Poly looking sensational at the Venice Film Festival in the same Gucci Fall/Winter 2011 dress as she wore to Met Costume Institute Gala back in May. Whilst Jennifer Lopez teamed her halter gown with keyhole detail with a matching floral shrug (not dissimilar to a Christmas wreath or even a Hawaiian fancy dress garland), matching clutch and a strong red lip and talons, Natasha kept it simple shunning the additional neck ties and adding a gold clutch and matching golden tan.

You can get the real deal here for a cool £3230. If you’re bank balance is looking a bit bleak then take a look at this Halter Maxi Dress. Finding a good Gucci lookalike is a tough job, but this slinky cerise evening dress is a good enough price that you can afford to customise it up with a bow or two if you do so wish. Although J-Lo’s look is a strong and brave one, Natasha wins this fashion face-off for me. I just can’t get on board with the floral neck thing and I think Jennifer’s hair and make up is a bit severe for such a beautiful dress.  Natasha meanwhile shows how less is sometimes so much more. But what do you think? Vote now!
