Today's Blind Items

What A-list actress, always movies, may be finding it harder these days to afford her much admired clothes and style as her career has stalled? She took not one, not two, but TEN irreplaceable 1950s vintage couture dresses from the set of her last film. The LA rental house who supplied the dresses was of course paid replacement value and damages by the embarrassed production, but next time you read about this actress on the red carpet in "an amazing vintage couture gown she chose herself", feel free to point and laugh.

Nicole Kidman?

ALL THREE OF THOSE WOMEN HAVE PLENTY OF MONEY...
BUT HOW DOES THE PRODUCTION HANDLE THIS ? DO THEY SAY THE DRESSES WERE A GIFT ?
AND HOW COULD ANYONE HAVE THE BALLS TO WEAR ONE OF THESE TO AN EVENT ?

Renee Zellweger or Hillary Swank. Both have costumey movies coming out: "My One and Only" for the former and "Amelia" for the latter.

Sounds like Zellweger to me! Seems like she's either wearing Carolina Herrera or vintage.

RocketQueen said...

I'm on the Kidman train. I think I read that her career has stalled because she no longer has any facial expression capabilities.

hil swank. her career is flat. renee has plenty of 'bridget jones' money.

lutefisk said...

I will go with Kidman, also. She is known for her clothes.

I dont think it is Renee Z. I feel like even if she didnt have the money, Carolina Herrara would dress her anyway.

Halle Berry? Kirsten Dunst? Kate Beckinsale? Keira Knightly? Just throwing out some actresses that Enty might consider A-list that havent done too much in awhile....

Going in a different direction what about Kate Winslet? Revolutionary Road was set in that period and seems to have been noted for it's fashion.

Swank started out on TV (90210).

Dijea said...

Who did a movie set in the 50's? Since the dresses were from the set of her last film? That should give it away.

Drcocks said...

I just saw Renee in an interview commenting about how much she loved the vintage wardrobe in her new film and how well it fit her.

SkittleKitty said...

Swank has Amelia coming out (going for her third Oscar).
Based upon the trailer I saw, I wouldn't keep the clothes styled after Amelia Earhart, no matter how vintage. ;)
Zellweger's a strong maybe to me. Doesn't seem like she's ever commanded the huge salaries, though she certainly could have bought these rather than taken.

Enty, can't the vintage company sue her if they see her out in public wearing a stolen dress?

Pamela S. said...

I beleive that Nicole Kidman started out as a child star in Australia.

Kidman- didn't she just finish Nine and wasn't her character from the early 60's?
