The way the pattern hugs her on this one reminds me of her 2012 Oscar dress, also a McQueen. And when you look at it here, you think, "Oh, well, this is going to be a colorful festival of joy and we're all going to go to sleep dreaming about it."

But then you see it and think, "Well, it's... is that skirt GRAY or see-through?" And you start to worry that perhaps you will not be dreaming of this in a happy way.

AND THEN BOOM. NIGHTMARES. The bodice might actually be a bit embiggening on her, the way it's cut, but we'll never know because I am too busy staring at how it makes her vagina look like it's falling off. Once again,the transparency is still ruining everything, AS IS ITS WONT.
The Jury

Meanwhile, Fan Bingbing -- whose gown has a trace of transparency as well with some filmy front slitting, but nothing terrible -- looks like a freaking goddess in Elie Saab.

I LOVE the top of this. I love HER. I am so thrilled she's on the jury because I think -- to put it so gracefully -- she's going to bring the shit out of it.

Earlier in the day, she defeated Chastain in a lipstick-off, too, although I think their skin tied for OMG What Are You Using I Need Some.

Fan BingBing is in a Ralph & Russo suit that is absolute perfection -- it's a tiny bit retro, like something Julia Roberts might have bought on Rodeo Drive in Pretty WOman, but also somehow appealingly timeless. It's fantastic. Chastain has on Roksanda, which I had guessed, given that line's obsession with sleeves right now. I don't think it looks great on her, and I cannot imagine how annoying those things are, but I am at least thrilled she's wearing red.

I just put this in for the hair flip. I cannot resist one. Also, her shoes are quite cute.
