    Rachel McAdams vs. Nicole Kidman — Fashion Faceoff

    Welcome to an international edition of Fashion Faceoff! Both Canadian actress Rachel McAdams ("The Notebook") and Australian-born leading lady Nicole Kidman ("The Hours") tried out the lace trend in the "Mirabella" dress by Collette Dinnigan within just three days of each other. Now it's up to us to decide ... who wore it better?

    Rachel, 33, rocked the design to promote her new tearjerker, "The Vow," in Munich, Germany, on January 30. She added black pumps and left her now-blond locks in curls cascading over her shoulders.

    Nicole, 44, chose the look for her appearance at the 2012 Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts Awards in West Hollywood, California, on January 27. The "Moulin Rouge" star accessorized with strappy silver sandals and left her strawberry-blond strands down.

    OK, it's time to call this style battle, which is tough since both ladies are working the look. Nicole's coloring against the dress is absolutely gorgeous, but Rachel's frock fits better, making her look more polished overall. I think, then, it comes down to the choice of shoes, and the answer there is clear: Rachel's black footwear makes her look frumpy from the hemline down, while Nicole's skimpy shoes ensure the view of her long and lean silhouette is uninterrupted. For me, Nicole is the winner. Do you agree?

      • KidMedic 3 months ago
        um...no. The woman makes the dress, and Rachel is freakin gorgeous!!

      Kidman's dress is too tight across the stomach/hips -- that's why it is all wrinkled. That does not look flattering. She'd have done better to have it let out an inch or two so it fit smoothly and left some room when she sits down so it doesn't wrinkle.

      This reminds me of Alice and Trixie in the Honeymooners.

      don't really like the dress, but i'd have to say nicole

      I like the shorter version, but Kidman just looks so damned dorky. Why did she go into show business if she doesn't like having her picture taken. She always looks so awkward.

      Shoes are the LAST thing people look at. Nichole needs to realize she isn't that size and actually wear clothing that FITS -- not looks like it was spray painted on. Ill fitting clothing is just bad form.

      The question was who wore the dress better, not who wore the best shoes.
    • Lee  •  Atlanta, Georgia  •  3 months ago
      Kidman looks #$%$off for some reason

        Too old and fake. That's why.

        plastic surgery does that to your face; she should stop

      Nicole is one of my favorite actors, but I gotta tell you she's kind of busting out of that lovely lace dress. As for Rachel McAdams (who is she?) looks like she's wearing her mommy's dress....Beautiful dress btw...
    • reader  •  Port Lavaca, Texas  •  3 months ago
      Pick the size that "FITS", not size on label, would look much better!
    • Charlee  •  Salem, Oregon  •  3 months ago
      I am such a huge fan of Rachel McAdams I cant help but think she looks better. However, I think she would rather be in blue jeans and cute top and off the red carpet.

      Like, OMG! I totally wore the same dress yesterday!
    • PicoMania  •  3 months ago
      OMG! Isn't this one of the signs of the 7 seals of the mayan extraterrestrial apocalypse?!?!?! how is it possible that the world didn't completely spin off it's axis after this. 8-/

      definitely Rachel, there is nothing wrong with sensible shoes, especially if you have to walk...
    • lokelau  •  3 months ago
      This dress would not flatter anyone unless their skin was the color of silly putty.The shoulders are not quite right and it is just too long, it should hit about mid knee. Iffy at best.
    • Bee  •  Los Angeles, California  •  3 months ago
      Sorry to be a smart-a*s, but in fact Nicole Kidman was born in Honolulu, Hawaii and spent her first four years in the U.S. Though I'm sure she is very much an Australian citizen...
      • DarkMax 3 months ago
        You do know that Nicole Kidman comes from a very famous Australian lineage
    • Tippi  •  Petah Tikva, Israel  •  3 months ago
      Since it is Winter in Germany and Summer in Australia, I don't think it is fair to settle on the shoes. It is hard to bring yourself to wear sandel when it is -10 degrees oursize.
    • Steve  •  3 months ago
      I'm beside myself trying to figure this one out!
    • Patrick Jane  •  3 months ago
      That's a totally unflattering pic of Nicole in that dress. There has to be others with better angles. Tell me I'm wrong.
    • SherryS  •  3 months ago
      They both look very pretty. I just wish Nicole would smile, she looks a bit severe. Rachel just looks so happy and easy going in it.
