At first glance, I thought maybe Anne Hathaway chose this dress in the name of synergy, as if to remind everyone subliminally that she's starring in a movie called Bride Wars and that you should totally go see it, because in these trying times, what we all really want to see is a movie about two whiny girls -- who don't eat carbs and call each other's asses fat -- fighting over who gets to have her wedding at the Plaza (I know we've said this before, but... seriously, those promos WILL NOT STOP RUNNING and just about the only thing that will quell my ill-will is when previews for the undoubtedly worse Confessions of a Shopaholic start to air and I have a new target for my irritation). It all seemed very strategic, is what I'm saying:
But I wanted to see the whole thing before I made a judgment. Generally, I find dresses that sit THAT far away from the skin a little weird, but it made sense to holster my nail gun until I checked out the other side.

At first, I actually thought she'd played a joke on everyone, belting the white dress to her chest and then changing into it ten minutes later and walking the red carpet again. But no, it's just... a very complicated dual-sided dress. One that, from this angle, looks like she brought along a ridiculously large hanky in anticipation of weeping her way through an acceptance speech. I want to give her points for creativity, but I can't decide if it's crafty and cool, or whether she recently climbed up a beanstalk and went dumpster-diving.
