Agreed.... well, mostly Jake.

reese (and her people) probably had an inkling she was going to win, and wanted something special (like julia roberts' and cate blanchett's valentino's for the oscars)...they knew she was going to be photographed (a lot), so it's understandable that she was a miffed at finding out it was worn a few years ago...

i do agree with meg though, her stylist (or even her PR people) should have known it was worn by dunst...i would be more upset at them, not chanel...

Well if her publicist hasn't been making a big fuss out of it... ...who would have noticed anyway?

DreamsAreMade · 18-01-2006

It's wouldn't be a big deal, except for the fact that she wanted vintage, and she thought that's what she was getting. You're SUPPOSED to get what you pay for. (or in this case borrowed).

Dod she ever say on the red carpet that she was wearing vintage Chanel?

I hate how people who are supposedly in fashion don't know anything about fashion.

I caught the Kirsten thing within a few minutes. Plus the fact that you say it's vintage, and it ISN'T?!

I don't care about the mainstream public, this is fashion, and if people give the PRETENSE of caring about fashion, then they should know something about it.

I would NOT want to repeat a dress of someone else at the Globes a few years ago.

I don't understand how people can say Kirsten didn't look good in the dress (but of course, Reese did??)

Many people on this board, and members of the media, noticed very quickly.

J. Lo and Renee Zellweger never dressed in Chanel again? Sounds like a pretty good deal to me...

tastes_like_chic · 18-01-2006

To be honest, while it is the same dress... it didn't look exactly the same because both actresses are different. Why does her stylist make a deal out of it? it only magnifies the fact they both wore it!
Many actresses wear the same dresses to different events - and there is never such a huge deal...
Don't worry Reese, you still have the Oscars!

fashionicon · 19-01-2006

It does kind of suck that Dunst wore it to the 2003 Golden Globes....

Pastry · 19-01-2006

wow! what a big deal

..it was an uggo anyway

thehepburn · 19-01-2006

It was Reese's publicist who made the official statement that she was duped by Chanel, not Reese's stylist. Hard to believe but maybe Reese didnt use a stylist this time and that's why they were duped. I still think its 50% Reese's fault for not having something made to order (especially when there was a good chance she was going to be a winner at the GGs) and insisting on the Chanle dress in the first place (according to Chanel)

even style.com calls the dress "vintage"

well if she had to pay for the dress like everyone else this proberly would not have happened....

kylie80 · 19-01-2006

so if it is couture doesnt that mean there was one made? So they wore the exact same dress?

I dont get all the hype. KD wore it to an after party, RW wore in on the carpet, they both looked good who cares? I personally like the idea of seeing a dress more than once. Now if they both wore it to the same ceremony, then let the heads roll.

if there was a stylist involved then that is the head that should roll
