Last night was the big event for Elle Magazine’s “Women In Hollywood”. Gwyneth Paltrow was one of several honorees (also included: Diane Keaton and Annette Benning). There was some particularly bad fashion that I’ll get to in other posts. Right now I want to make it all about Gwyneth’s Pumpkin Goop. Paltrow wore this pumpkin-colored fitted dress to the event. It’s kind of “Wow!!” moment for me. I never would have picked this color for any woman, let alone for Gwyneth for a red carpet event… and yet, Goopy pulls it off, doesn’t she? You wouldn’t think that pumpkin would be one of her colors, but she looks really cute and surprisingly chic in orange. Does anyone else kind of wish she would chop her hair off again, though? I’m a little tired of the long hair, parted in the center. Also, look at the back of the dress:
Surprisingly sexy! Very chic, Goopy. Well done.
In addition to the Women In Hollywood event, Goopy also went out to dinner last night, and she went for an old-faithful color – shades of grey. Now that I’ve seen her in orange, I want more pops of color.

Ugh, I cannot stand the Goopster, but she does look stunning in that orange dress. And are those extentions in back, or has she just let it grow that long?
That is a great color on her.
Nice color. Nice body. Shame about the rest.
She looks really good. Lovely girl.
All of that starvation, liquid diets and working out with Madonna’s trainer didn’t pay off. I was shocked at her bikini body, she definitely looks better with clothes on.
Gorgeous! Love both the orange as well as the grey dress.
The orange washes her out, but she looks good in that gray dress.
Does she ever change her hairstyle?
I feel like I’ve never seen her with any other cut or color.
everyones gonna hate but I love it. wish I could wear that color.
I dunno why but that 4th pic made me think Blake Lively.
Otherwise she looks gorge, been keepin herself well, this Goopster.
Seeing Goopy here looking as if she has no idea how to use a conditioner, and then seeing pics of other attendees makes me wonder about one thing:
Why does everyone’s hair look so bad?
Some people don’t seem to know how to wash their hair, others look like they own a brush but haven’t gotten round to reading the owner’s manual yet, and a few look as they can’t afford to pay a hair stylist, not even Ken Paves, who’s a hack IMHO.
I think the dress is quite pretty and she doesn’t look bad in it.
Her hair always sucks though.
I wonder if Blake Lively reminds Ben Affleck of Goopy.
I like the dress but really wish she wouldn’t have done the fake tan. It’s a bit too much and I always appreciated her paleness.
I don’t hate it but she is so insufferable that I can’t like it either.
She looks great.
She’s said in some interview that she thinks long hair makes her look younger or something.
She looks great! The back makes the dress, for sure.
no. that is a bad, bad color for her, her skin is orange and her hair looks like hay. and i see she’s wearing her favorite accessory, the smug-face.
she looks amazing.
also, now that she isn’t hanging with madonna so often [it seems], she looks more like her old self. and happier. And, she may be getting back into acting, and say wha tyou will, but I nearly always enjoy her on screen. I think she’s a solid actress, regardless of her hollywood connections.
oscar aside, she is enjoyable on screen, IMO.
I agree she is insufferable and a snob, etc. but she is beautiful.
Hair – grown to death.
Face – dodgy. She’s been messing about with it. She looks like every other Hollywood chick.
Dress – nothing spesh….
Husband – fill in the blanks.
The dress looks nice but she really, really, really needs a haircut. It looks so stringy!
@ Original Kate. Thanks for making me laugh in my tea. I needed that brilliant description of the Goopster!
I’m actually loving this color on her. I didn’t think anyone could pull off orange, ever. Despite her tendency towards being pretentious, she looks great….
Great legs, very pretty
pretty..the back is hot
I like the dress, she looks great.
I like her better in shorter hair. Not short (although she pulled that off) but shorter.
i am surprised there were no baby bump comments regarding the third dress. I think it makes her look preggers. I think the orange dress is pretty from the front and ok from the back (she has a nice ass for being nearly 40 years old and having birthed two children).
No. Just no.
Color, yes, but orange, no.
I think she looks great.
I would call that tangerine. And yes, it is a very juicy color and she pulls it off nicely with her warm coloring, neutral makeup and shoes.
It doesn’t look cut correctly from the front – especially at the waist – but from the back it’s pretty. That is a good color for her.
Gorgeous.
Coral.
Gorgeous color on most women.
Back and legs look lovely, but the front of the orange dress is a little ill-fitted.
Her hair is just awful. I miss the bob.
i love 99% of what she wears. and she has the body of a model, so she wears everything so well.
that dress is very mod. love it.
