Rosie Huntington-Whiteley in red lamé: showgirl fug or stunning?

Last night was the NYC premiere of Transformers: Dark of the Moon, and once again, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley tried to lure me into caring about this film with her fashion porn. Unlike her gorgeous sapphire-blue Burberry gown in London, however, I’m underwhelmed by this red lamé Antonio Berardi Fall 2011 gown. I really love the structure… so what’s the problem? I don’t know. I think it’s the fabric that’s bugging me. It’s too orange-red for my taste (a blood-red would have been nice) and the sheen is giving me a “Vegas showgirl” vibe. Plus, she looks like Jessica Rabbit. Certainly, there are worse style icons, but the whole effect is kind of meh.

More photos from the New York premiere… there is never a time when Patrick Dempsey’s wife is not looking sullen and sulky. I would say she has a “natural bitchface” but I just think she’s a morose person.

I don’t “get” Josh Duhamel. Never have.

And finally, Shia LaBeouf. I don’t like seeing him in a suit nowadays. He needs to just wander around like this.
