  1. Everyone looks nice. I wish Kim would turn it down a notch with the make up though. Halle looks greatttttt in that dress. Are we sure she is 40.

  2. myra

    love all the outfits; these celebrities pull them well (specially kerry and halle)
    but i’m not a fan of estelle’s dress; i know it’s her style but…nay!

  3. Math

    - Halle looks better than the model cause she fills the dress out, has better shoes on and I like that she scrunched the cleavage a little.
    - The D&G dress is ugly period lol.
    - Taraji’s suit is H-O-T.
    - I give Kim K props for rocking a belt. I just wish she would’ve picked a better one… the tranny makeup though o.O
    - Kerry’s look is less busy than the model’s and I love it!!!
    - The Kevan Hall’s dress is meh imo.

  4. Funopolee

    Halle Berry looks stunning as usual. But Estelle, well I don’t think that dress brings out her beauty.

  5. me and you

    I think Hallie looks absolutely G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S! This woman’s body amazes me! When it to comes miss hallie Berry, she can pull anuthing off!

    I guess it’s true when they say: “The outfit doesnt make you…It’s YOU who makes the outfit!” And clearly, that other tiny model aint doing shit for the outfit.lol

  6. vicky 305 MIYAYO

    ALL THE REAL ONES LOOK BETTER EXCEPT ESTELLE’S

  7. Neela007

    “The outfit doesnt make you…It’s YOU who makes the outfit!” soo real

  8. Take That

    I think everyone pulled off their looks off the runway except Estelle. Her outfits are always tragic. Even that garabage bag she had on at the Grammy’s. Terrible. She needs a new stylist. Love her music though.

  9. WestNDNbeauty

    I’m loving the way these Sisters are rocking the latest Runway Fashions! Keep it up Ladies….looking good!

  10. LittlePrincess

    Halle looks good, I like the dress but I do think Halle’s looks are overrated. She’s now known for her image and not her acting

    The Dolce and Gabana dress looks better as a longer dress, I know Estelle has crazy fashion sense but sometimes she does take it a bit too far

    Kim has wayy too much makeup on she looks like Morticia from the Adams Family, the dress also looks better on the model because the belt is not needed.

    Taraji’s suit is okay, she pulls it off but I dont like the suit itself

  11. faith08

    does anyone notice dem outfits look soooooo much betta on the celebz..coz dey gt the body..thickness && allsorts..no offence to de skiiny modells. buh dem outfits are beautiful on de celebs..

  12. MsBossofNYU

    On Halle’s Dress: Uumm ……yeah. Just let a black woman do/wear that, can never go wrong with a black woman’s God given figure. …..And you wonder why WE aren’t the ones allowed to showcase clothes ……….do I smell envy?????????

    You know what they say, “They hate us ’cause they ain’t us”

  13. Diamond-K-

    I agree with #7 and #9 who said that everyone rock’d their looks except Estelle..
    Halle looks HOT! and that dress is beautiful.

  14. DY

    On Estelle: That looks like something she would wear.

    Kerry Washington should really never wear a nude lip …she needs color.

    And why does white girl next to Kerry look like she is on her way to shoot up the cafeteria?

  15. wtf!! r yall serious...

    everyone looks really nice…

  16. Mr. Me Too

    Halle body is nutz!

  17. Embark

    Is it me or do breasts and hips make every dress better. High fashion is so ridiculous sometimes.
    I will say that the model might look better than Kerri because of her styling: (the sandals and the shorter skirt)

  18. platinum glam v.

    halle chest alteration added to the dress, the model version look painful there, although the hue of the model dress would have been caramelicious on halle and made her skin glow, halle choice of hue washed her out a bit and the purse not hot. estelle alteration was nicely added, but nothing can save that dress NOTHING! kim dress better simple on the runway just add some banging heels. kerry better on the model its edgy and the shoes fly, kerry easter belt with edgy is clashing. nicole dress is working against her and the model for some reason. taraji suit is okay, im just tired of basic black and white.

  19. platinum glam v.

    halle alteration nicely^ added.

  20. B-U

    just goes to show that they need more sisters on the runways…

  21. Angie O

    who’s the model in the Kevan Hall dress?

  22. Alaysia

    Kerry is so beautiful!

  23. La Tray*TRAY

    Every1 looks HAUTE……Halle and Kerry always come HARD….Estelle looks Fierce…Kim looks Seductive…The rest look Good

  24. Ladyssolady

    Taraji and Kerry look good. As does Kim, but something about her face looks a bit different…

  25. *«Solid Rich Girl»*

    Most of the ladies pulled off the runway to realway fashions but I think Halle Berry,Taraji,Kerry Washington and Nicole Ari Parker pulled their look off the best.

  26. GS

    The celebs def. rocked the outfits

  27. Madame

    Halle worked it in that dress!!! … as did Kerry.

  28. lilkunta

    These clothes are what was just shown @ fashion week right?
    Do these ladies all get 2 see the clothes b4 fashion week & that is how they’re wearing them so quickly?

    Also, since clothes is borrowed, when they’re returned, they’re cleaned & then put in a store 4 sale?

  29. dee dee

    What is with all the clown makeup? Halle looks flawless!

  30. Ebony Intuition

    Both the models and celebs look great.

  31. aider

    As always ms halle berry looks amazing in this dress, so as kerry, taraji and nicole parker am i forgeting someone?? Ohhh kim goodness me with all that makeup on didnt recognise you lol. would prefer with u tone down the makeup….

  32. Patrictia Hicks

    Taraji looks like a classy profesional woman in that suit. I would wear something like that. Kim is not a sista she may have the features like a black women but her features are fake. She just trying to be a black woman.

  33. marlina

    KERRY IS BANGING!!!!!!
    Looks AMAZING

  34. Glam Examiner

    Everyone but Nicole and Estelle pulled their looks off. I want to see both Nicole and Estelle fine tune their looks as Nicole is a gorgeous woman and Estelle very talented. Nicole and Estelle’s looks are examples of ppl in the public’s eye dressing themselves or dressed by the wrong Style Team.

    As for Halle I love her…but something about her hair throws the look a bit off.

  35. Greatestloveofall

    The only outfits I like are Halle’s Taraji’s and Kerry’s. The others are merely some over the top creations models would rock on the runway and not something for everyday folk. I’m so fed up of them psuedo Martian suits tryna pass off as fashion. Design something which looks wearable

  36. Diabolical

    They all wore it real well … well I hate that dress Estelle is wearing or whatever it is.

  37. HALLE, TARAJI & NICOLE MAKE IT LOOK BETTER THAN THE MODELS! THAT’S WASSUP.

    DEAD@ KIM’S NEW NOSE.

  38. becca

    Halle & Taraji look AMAZING!!!!!

    I like Nicole and Kerry’s looks also.

  39. I MEAN CAN JUS AGREE TO DISAGREE

    everyone looks nice, Estelle looks very pretty in that picture that looks like something she would wear though.Nyways hope Taraji wins at the Ocars.

  40. myopia

    I agee. I think they all look great as well. I especially like Kerry’s outfit. Very nice.

  41. Ara

    Halle Berry and Kim K, their outfits are most beautiful …….

  42. Izzib

    The celebrities look better than the models. Most of the models look like they are sick, sad, starved and some too pale.

  43. tee

    everybody on the left look better got the hips and everything people on the right is anorexic

  44. J-ROC

    #18..SO TRUE!! IN MY OPINION EVERYONE PULLED OFF THE LOOKS BETTER THAN THE RUNWAY MODELS! THOSE MODELS LOOK LIKE THEY HAVE TERMINAL ILLNESSES!! DAMN!!

  45. let's not lie

    1. halle looks better but it’s b/c of the alterations. they made her dress sexy and fit it to her body. if the original was shorter on that model, the dress would’ve been just as sexy. halle looks great though
    2. taraji is much prettier than the model but the model pulls off the look better b/c she’s tall and makes the suit look more sleek. there is some bunching around taraji’s buttons
    3. something about kim’s belt just doesn’t look right to me or maybe i’m judging her b/c i think her overall style sucks anyway so i don’t expect anything good from her. i just feel like another black belt would’ve been better or maybe no belt at all.
    4. kerry is gorgeous but i prefer the model’s outfit. the colors are better and kerry’s gold belt, leopard print shoes combo is too typical. and i love the dark makeup.
    5. nicole never looks good to me probably b/c she looks like a tranny. the model is gorgeous though but even she can’t save the dress.

    ^ What does Halle’s supposed “looks being overrated” have to do with the post being about the celebs rocking the dress in real life vs the runway? I swear, I truely hope that some of you people that say that womans “looks are overrated” got your sh*t together and look half as good as she does. Im not trying to be mean, but I really do. Half the people who claim that woman is “overrated” or “average” are below average looking, so lets stop with the nonsense. But I guess everyone has an opinion to bad yours is not going to change the popular publics opinion of her. Also, Halle Berry is known for BOTH her image and acting, as long as she has that Oscar (and just about everyother award and actor can claim)… she’s good.

    Anyhow, I think Halle, Taraji and Kerry carried their looks the best…keep doing you ladies.

  47. TRUTHFULLY CUTE 09

    WTH?? I THOUGHT KIM KARDASHIAN WAS CHRISTINA AGUILERIA WOW, WHY DOES HER FACE LOOK DIFFERENT??

  48. Lady J

    I think Halle looks perfect. Nicole is working her dress as well. Kerry looks well put together and sleek. Kim and Estelle however…Estelle’s dress is just ridiculous. Too much make up on Kim. She should have left the belt at home and did the nude make up for a cleaner look.

  49. CjBRUHH

    yeah thats why the realway looks way better than the runway with the exception of estelle…and possibly Kimmy K

  50. Reccy

    Halle’s body is the biz!

  51. Vividly. Artistic

    Lovely styles.

    Yikes@Kim’s nose..wtf..

  52. MRS. SK8BOARD P (AK AND BK STAN)

    All the ladies look great, but Kim got on too much makeup..

  53. slim

    LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEE how keri hilson freaked her outfit!!

  54. Babygirl

    kim tht make up makes u look like a kittty kat u need to turn it down next tym however everyone looks gorgeouse
    Estelee try harder next tym theres always somethn wrong wit her looks she def needs a new stylist

  55. luvvieboo

  56. jp

    I enjoyed reading the majority of posts today as they were positive…..a trend that I hope continues.

    Halle- amazing, very classy and well put together.
