Kirsten Dunst’s Look: Love It or Leave It?

At the Rodarte show at New York Fashion Week.

All I have to say is that I do not want to see the dry cleaning bill for this garment. I shudder at the thought.

Oh, and on that note, I have a question for you guys: Does anyone know of a good product to use to do dry cleaning at home? I’m thinking that by now they MUST have invented something effective, but everything I try seems to suck. I am so over paying a dry cleaner like a million bucks every time I want to wear a nice dress. Thoughts?

  • I wish she would just stay indoors with her hypothetical cats and let the world live without a glimpse of her face and her horrendous fashion statements for at least 6 months, then maybe I can stand to look at a picture of her and not cringe.

  • The hot pink tights beside her are what offend me most. I love different colours of tights but hot pink, red and white tights should not exist on this planet.

  • I dig it. She took a risk with this one but I think it works. It seems like a dress of that…uh…caliber would draw away from the face too much, but she still has that radiant, childlike glow.

  • A dress constructed of hairballs or the like? A child could get away with wearing something like this, but not an adult.

  • I took a fabrics class for fashion design, and you can wash everything — even wool — in regular water and woolite, then lay it out flat to dry. It’s just manufactures don’t want to be blamed for their clothes falling apart in your hot/white cycles. With wool you just don’t want to rub it together or it will ‘felt’ and shrink. The agitation is what shrinks it.

    • Really? I bet you know this from extended, intimate interaction with her and aren’t talking out of your ass at all.

  • Haha Beehind.
    I think she looks atrocious.
    I can’t stand her anyway, so maybe I’m biased.
    She just has yet in impress me.

  • that dress was on the cover of Vogue, last October, yet looks even worse on her. really? REALLY? Kirsten, I’m disappointed but not surprised.

  • When my sister did dog shows my mom constantly had to wash suits that were dry clean only. Dryel was her savior.

  • Dryel works pretty well – but can leave spots if your dryer “high” cycle is too hot. There is another product (I have found it at BIG LOTS!) called Dry Cleaner’s Secret. Same concept as Dryel but not nearly as much $ plus you don’t need a bag, just the sheet and 4 clothing items on 30 minutes in your dryer and voila! It makes my sweaters and woolens plus silk look great and wrinkle free.

    Kiki’s dress? Blah to the max.

  • No! Nothing takes the place of professional dry cleaning. High end garments like these need to be cleaned by people who know what dyes are stable in water and which are not. How to remove a stain without permanently setting it. And most importantly, how to clean and finish something and make it look as good if not better than when it was purchased. I suggest that with the cost of good clothes this is place to spend a fraction of the cost to clean them rather than risk a total loss. If you aren’t happy with your current cleaners price list but you are with the quality, then you are right were you should be. It takes time (labor cost) and expensive equipment and supplies to keep good clothes looking good. Dependable Cleaners, Denver, Colorado.

  • I’m loving the shoes of the person next to her but the loudness of the hot pink tights are distracting me from ms. dunst

  • As a general rule I can’t stand her. But I am kinda liking the dress and she’s managed to pull it off without looking like a crazy cat lady. Am I being punk’d??

  • i worn such a dress at my enrollment and now I feel very embarrassed I know how she is feeling in mabe ten years!!! pour kristen

  • It’s RODARTE, friends! Kate and Laura are the future of fashion! I think it’s a refreshing turn for the industry, and I think kirsten wears it well.

  • I dont get it, does she wear things like this to purposely get attention? There’s no one someone saw this on a hanger and thought… wow, I’m going to wear this lacy potato sack!
