Transformation

1994: After graduating from Australia’s National Institute of Dramatic Art and winning the Newcomer Award from the Sydney Theatre Critics Circle, the redheaded Blanchett begins doing TV work.


1999: The star of The Talented Mr. Ripley and An Ideal Husband lightens up her layered cut. She describes her natural color as “a swamp-water blond.”

2000: She dons a dark wig on the red carpet after shaving her head for Heaven. “She’s got a box of wigs,” hairstylist Danilo reveals of the trendsetting star.

2000: She bares her buzz cut. Says makeup artist Jeanine Lobell: “People thought of her as retro, but then she cut her hair off and looked supermodern."

2004: "Cate has the face of an angel," says actress and director Gillian Armstrong. She shows off her divine features with a basic bob.

2007: The third-time nominee may earn herself a second Oscar for Notes on a Scandal.

"You can't please everyone," Cate Blanchett has said, "but hopefully you'll surprise people." The modest Academy Award nominee both pleases and surprises in parts as diverse as a prostitute, a pedophile and a plain old American mom—and that’s just this year. Her translucent complexion and boldly defined features allow her to try out different looks with ease. "She looks incredible with long hair, short hair, a dark wig,” says her hairstylist, Danilo. Makeup artist Jeanine Lobell agrees: "She's a chameleon. It's fun to do her makeup, because you can really play with her.” On the red carpet, Blanchett pairs couture gowns with wash-and-wear hair and—no surprise—looks stunning. “Women like her break rules,” Donna Karan has said, “yet we love them for it."
 
i think freja looks wonderful in it too...
that purple is so vibrant...
but cate does pull it off very well...although i think i would have preferred her hair up...
 
^ i agree about freja ... the dress itself is gorgeous ... but i prefer her hair loose (the way she wore it) with that dress ... makes the look a lot more sensual than it already is :wub:
 
I remember when she began on Australian tv, I loved her immediately. It's great that she became so successful
 
i really cant imagine her in any of the armani prive gowns, but im sure she can pull anything off :)
 
"Cate: from fashionista to Cruella
Why has the beauteous Cate Blanchett started dressing like Cruella De Vil? The question was posed by the European fashion writer Lisa Armstrong when she returned from the latest fashion shows in Paris.
Armstrong, who saw Blanchett front row at an Armani collection, noted that the actor no longer uses the Los Angeles stylist Jessica Pastor, who had made her look like an ethereal elf princess, and "the results can be volatile".
Magnet, the Los Angeles website that represents Pastor, still boasts on its website of the Blanchett-Pastor connection, showing pictures of the actor in many red carpet moments, as well as on Vogue and Harpers Bazaar covers.
Pastor has styled Blanchett for the Academy Awards in the past, and this year is said to be styling Jennifer Hudson of Dreamgirls, Blanchett's rival for this year's award of best actress in a supporting role.
Blanchett had flown to the Armani show from Louisiana, where she is filming The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, which also stars Brad Pitt.
Stills from the movie show her in a 1950s-style swing coat, not a Cruella look, but appropriate for a movie about aging in reverse.
Based on an F. Scott Fitzgerald story, Benjamin Button is about a 50-year-old man who begins to age backwards. Regaining his youth, he falls in love with a 30-year-old woman.
Also on Blanchett's busy movie schedule is the Bob Dylan flick I'm Not There and a new Elizabeth I movie, The Golden Age, both in post production."

I came across this article today ,I'm kinda confused what's the point, she looks fabulous recently!:angry: :angry:
