WHO RAN IT?: Chanel Iman Vs. Kerry Washington

 

Recently, two of our favorite YBF chicks, Chanel Iman and Kerry Washington were spotted in the same outfit from the 2011 summer/spring Gucci collection.  Decide who ran it best inside....

 

Last night Kerry Washington rocked a bold and vibrantly colored Gucci dress from the spring/ summer 2011 collection to the Mary J. Blige honors concert in New York City. Washington paired the dress with Gucci's purple Malika clutch and purple and gold heels. A couple of months ago, half way across the world Chanel Iman wore the same dress to the 500 by Gucci party in Milan. Iman paired the racy frock with Gucci Kelis Suede & Python Ankle-Strap Platform Sandals.

So..........

 

 WHO RAN IT?

 

 

And in case you missed it........

 

Jennifer Lopez rocked the same Gucci outfit in a different color at the 1st Annual UNICEF Women of Compassion Luncheon with a daring plunging neckline which is completed with strappy sandals and gold jewelry.

I must start by commending on

I must start by commending on Gucci’s 2011 Spring Collection line. The Milan Fashion Week opened with Gucci’s showcase: the embellished gowns, glamorous cocktail dresses, and fun day-wear that celebrate the personal freedom of women; the freedom to dress and express yourself in whichever manner you like. This celebration of stylistic freedom was the mantra at the Gucci house this season, which clearly felt like focusing on the glamourous aspect of the fashion industry rather than the serious business side. Chanel Iman and Kerry Washington both killed the dress, with their own accessories and shoes, because each of them bring out their own individuality and different expression. Would love to see both of them dawn on Pandora Jewelry, known best for its bourgeois twist on the classic charm bracelet.

J-Lo, but Kery comes close.

J-Lo, but Kery comes close. J-Lo looks healthy and her figure fills out the dress. Kerry may not have much in the backside, and bordering thin but the dress compliments her curves nicely. Makeup's perfect as usual for Ms. Washington. Chanel is way too thin, boney legs, arms, but rocking a nice chest.

I love Kerry and not all

I love Kerry and not all black women have a curves that black women are supposed to have. I am black I am slim and have no bum and I have boobs. I have been told I am not black enough because I do not have a typical black women body what the hell. So many black women do not have huge curves like beyounce,Jlo ect we come in all shapes and sizes maybe that is why white men like me so much because I am small all over.

Okay, if you crave for fish

Okay, if you crave for fish you go to the fish market. Same theory Channel, is a model. That is all...... The other two are paid to look like models, singers, or fish out of water. Cute on both actresses but not model material at all. Okay, that is all...

To be that thin is completely

To be that thin is completely unattractive so Chanel will never run anything up against a healthy sized woman.

I saw the color JLO is wearing in every fashion magazine in March, and fell in love with it. I really like it on Kerry, though.

http://www.deheadphone.com/ "The climate in our country is very pleasant. It’s always warm in spring, hot in summer and cold in winter. My favourite season is autumn, because it’s always warm in September and October. It’s often cold in November. It’s certainly interesting. The other reason is the days are short and the nights are long. The sun rises late and sets early. I can do my favourite things in the evening. Autumn is a harvest season. I can make great progress in autumn. I like the golden season, and you?"

Jlo, rocked it the best, and

Jlo, rocked it the best, and this is not meant as a diss but chanel and kerry neither have enough up top or enough curves to make the look hott or sexy it just looks blah, it would look better on a woman with more "assets" either uptop or bottom, which is why Jlo looks sexier in it cause she has hips

Kerry, then Chanel, then JLO.

Kerry, then Chanel, then JLO. Though JLO is not wearing the same dress she's wearing a different dress from the same Gucci collection. You can see the line here: http://www.yournextskirt.com/gucci-spring-2011-jewel-colors/ Side note: Chanel does not need to gain weight, she's a model, model's are supposed to be skinny. She's the right size for her profession. You don't see toothpick football players running around the field. If she gained weight she wouldn't get work, and that will be one less black model on the runway and they're only a few of them.

I like Kerry and J-Lo equally

I like Kerry and J-Lo equally because they wore the dress in different ways. I thought Chanel Iman was putting on a little weight... WTF happened?! Have they been airbrushing her ad campaigns to make her look a little more filled out? She looks like a concentration camp survivor!! I'm sorry but when will fashion houses learn that that's not sexy. I'm 5'7'' and a size 2/4 but CI has a good 3-4" on me. She needs to gain at least 10 pounds to be thin; here she just looks sickly and malnourished.

Kerry is a very beautiful

Kerry is a very beautiful woman, but I don't really like how she looks in this dress. I love the way Chanel rocked it because she adjusted the waist belt to give her body definition and shape, also, she gets paid to stand and pose in a way that will accenuate the best features of the dress. So, it's really not fair.. lol OVERALL J LO killed it!!!!! She brough this dress to the block, and made into something that could be a reasonable trend! Not only that, but it is appropriate for the event.

Chanel Iman looks like a sack

Chanel Iman looks like a sack of bones in that dress. She barely has shoulder to hold the material up. I know some people are naturally thin but she looks emaciated. Kerry W. looks nice in the design but I have to say JLo ran it.

J-LO wins it! Then Kerry, then Iman I like Iman, but she's a model..she's skinny for a reason...so you notice the clothes and not her. Unfortunately, it looks like this dress is wearing her...not the other way around. J-Lo has just enough body...and the black looks sharp...I love Kerry's shoes w/ the outfit tho'

Chanel Iman has the body of a 13-year-old boy. She is really too thin. Kerry is thin also but she looks so much healthier than Chanel and she fills out the dress nicely. I think Kerry ran it. I don't like the alterations JLO made to it.
