When Anne hit the red carpet, Jessica and I turned to each other and went, "Ooooh, I... don't know." The dress made her look bottom-heavy in a way that we all know full well she is not -- seriously, I'd be surprised if she weighs as much as the jewelry some other people had on that night.
But now that I've gazed upon it in photos, I've completely changed my mind.
I think I love it on her. It doesn't make her look bottom-heavy at all -- it makes her look curvy, or at least curvier, because the cut gives her hips. All those paillettes catch the light in a really fanciful way, and she did an artful job of being restrained with accessories on a night where the folks at Harry Winston -- or some other Beverly Hills bling emporium -- were on their knees begging her to put on another $2 million or so. After the year she's had, this is a fitting climax, especially because she seemed to enjoy herself so much. Hopefully next time she's honored at the Oscars, it'll be for a movie that didn't look like it was going to make me want to slit my wrists.
