Two fabulous ladies, one gorgeous Chanel couture dress. Can you believe Cate Blanchett first wore this 2006 Chanel Fall couture dress in 2006 at the London premiere of Volver? Socialite Daphne Guinness recently resurrected the same dress and wore it at the Chanel couture collection show. Cate kept her look simple with black opaque tights and boots, while Daphne stepped it up a couple notches with a wide belt and chunky platforms. Whose version do you prefer?

    I think Daphne looks like Outer-Space Barbie in this pic! Cate looks amazing and the dress isn't so "obvious" allowing us to focus on her beauty. Although I really don't like the dress in general . . .

    Neither. But if I have to chose, I would chose Daphne.

    Cate simply because it looks more wearable and is a wonderful twist on the LBC. Daphne looks like she is stuck in the dress some how ( way to corseted) and the fit around her neck is a little wonky like she choking.

    The dress is more Cate's style. A bit eclectic and and space-agey Smiling

    I have to say Cate; she makes it look classic and simple, which is what I've always loved about Chanel. Daphne looks trashy; it should be illegal to do those kinds of things to a Chanel dress.

    Daphnes head looks way too big for her body..that pic almost looks like its photoshopped to put the head-body together!

    Cate. She can do no wrong. Plus, Daphne's belt makes an already weird dress jump to trashy.

    That is one fugly dress. Can't imagine what they were thinking when they picked it up and said.."I love this I have to have this" and then put it on and thought it looked good?

    cmd0610, I was thinking the same thing!

    HATE the dress but i'm giving this to daphne. the dress looks too plain on cate. it's a strange dress and daphne made it look even stranger which somehow works for her. she looks like she came from outer space. i still hate the dress though. goodness

    Daphne looks like Britney Spears from her Toxic video but Cate looks completely uncomfortable and the fit is frightening...this one goes to Daphne.

    Cate did better with what I felt was a weak dress. As for Daphne I can only say.. "LOL...JUDY JETSON".
