Keira Knightley wows in Chanel at the ‘Never Let Me Go’ premiere

High fashion Charlie Brown, right? That was what I first thought when I saw Carey Mulligan’s dress at the Never Let Me Go premiere last night. Where I preferred Carey’s dress at yesterday’s photo call, I have to admit, I prefer Keira’s total look for the premiere. Does it wash her out a bit? Sure. But the Chanel Fall 2010 Couture dress is gorgeous, the detailing is beautiful, and her makeup and styling is incredible. Now, I don’t really hate Carey’s Vionnet Spring 2011 deal. It’s actually one of the prettiest things she’s ever worn on a red carpet, which isn’t really saying much. I actually think Carey looks like Keira styled her – I bet you ten bucks that’s what happened. Keira came to Carey’s hotel room and picked out her dress and did her makeup and hair.

What’s-his-face looked nice too. Andrew Garfield. I can never remember his name. He may be extremely talented, but he’s very average-looking, right? I’ve known about ten different guys in my life that look like this.

    That Chanel is pretty fierce, can’t lie.

  2. Alexa says:

    Wow! GORGEOUS CHANEL DRESS!! What a pleasure to even just look at it. I actually like Carey’s dress too. FWIW – I am SO TIRED of micro-mini hemlines on dresses – especially when they’re strapless dresses. To me they look about as lovely as one of those towels you can buy that have a closure right near your underarm.

  3. mln says:

    The length on Carey’s dress is awful she looks so frumpy standing next to Kiera which is saying alot because Carey is beautiful.
    Keira got it exactly right.

  4. sisi says:

    Andrew Garfield sometimes reminds me the previous Doctor Who, a.k.a. David Tennant

  5. moviegoer says:

    lol have to disagree on Andrew Garfield. I find him very good looking. By the way I saw the movie at TIFF and it was a superb adaptation of the source book.

  6. Riley says:

    Kiera has some curves and they look extraordinary. I hope she can keep this figure. It is really beautiful.

  7. Miss A says:

    Boy, is Carey’s dress ugly! It seems like her waist dropped a couple of inches.

    Keira looks lovely. Should’ve paired different shoes, though. Too clunky.

  8. gillie says:

    wow, what an amazing dress K. is wearing. i bet it costs more than what i make in 4 months!

  9. Kaiser says:

    gillie – I’m sure it costs more than what I make in a whole year! That’s Chanel couture – I’m sure it’s hand-beading.

  10. Johnny Depp's Girl says:

    Kiera looks incredible!

  11. gabs says:

    I also thought Keiras styled Carey. Lately Careys dressing the best she ever has at these appearances for Never let me go. Can’t be a coincidence. They both look great and I heard the movie is good too

  12. Tess says:

    Keira looks like a beautiful mannequin to me, too intent on posing, and basically lifeless.

    I think Carey looks good by comparison.

    About the book the movie is based on…I read it recently. The author, who also wrote Remains of the Day, is a Brit of Japanese ancestry.

    The book is very unsettling. It portrays a very inhumane future— cold and chilling—where children are produced and raised in institutions solely for the purpose of harvesting their organs.

  13. james says:

    i like carey’s better. very fresh and young.

  14. padiddle says:

    Keira’s dress is ah maz ing. Andrew Garfield played such a sweet character in “Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus” – I really liked him in that. Hopefully he continues to be successful.

  15. Granger says:

    Love Keira’s dress, but I hate those shoes. They are seriously awful.

  16. Abby says:

    love Kiera’s dress and makeup, etc. If she’d had a thinner heel thickness the whole outfit would be a 10. Not a fan of Carey’s outfit.

  17. bizzy says:

    huh, i’m not loving keira’s dress. it’s a bit “your grandma’s pearls go bondage”.

  18. sharylmj says:

    love both dresses.. hate K’s shoes. These two look awesome. It’s just hard to see them together because the dresses are SO different. Carey’s is much more casual than Kiera’s.

  19. Mia Girl says:

    Love the look, but K’s shoes look like they weigh more than she does.

  20. caroline says:

    @tess, warning, that might be a bit of a spoiler for people, yikes! but i agree, the book is fantastic.

  21. Tess says:

    @ Caroline

    Oops, sorry. Mea Culpa.

    But, the book is out there and with a high profile cast and premier, word will probably get out pretty fast, anyway.

  22. aenflex says:

    Something about her face I cannot stand.

  23. sickofit says:

    ouch, both of the girls look too thin to be true

  24. gillie says:

    hand beaded? yikes. more than what i make in a year, as well… (sigh!) wish i had a job that gave me reason/resources to wear such a dress

  25. tango says:

    I guess I’m not feeling either of those dresses. The dress on Keira just emphasizes how flat chested she is and Careys dress is too long and ill fitting. If both dresses could be tweaked, they’d be winners. And Carey’s shoes are so clunky looking. I’d also prefer a sleeker heel on Keira.

  26. Emma says:

    I think Keira is absolutely stunning – I’d KILL for that face.

  27. paranel says:

    Wow, the dress is stunning. Carey looks really blah .

  28. Melissa says:

    Meh. I like Carey’s look much better. Keira’s shoes are way too clunky and from the side, the dress really makes her look like she has a long torso and short legs. I also think Carey is much prettier – Keira’s face is so angular I feel like she might poke somebody’s eye out with that jawbone!

  29. Crash2GO2 says:

    While Keira’s makeup is gorgeous, I thought English girls were taught posture. Her slumping is horrible and ruins the whole look. She’s nearly as bad as Ashlee Simpson in these photos with her chin thrust out at an odd angle over her slumped chest.

  30. Lydia says:

    I LOVE the Chanel dress and the shoes which are a little different from the usual seen on red carpets. I don’t care for the other dress or the rest of Carey’s styling.

    I WANT that Chanel dress!

  31. Scarlet Vixen says:

    I think Carey’s dress would be adorable if it were much shorter-above the knee. Then it wouldn’t be so weighted down, and would flow nicely and look fresher and younger (not so dowdy). Oh, and different shoes, too. 🙂

  32. 6 says:

    Kiera does look amazing. That haircut is too cute on her.

  33. a says:

    keira and andrew have matching brows!

  34. Anon73 says:

    @Granger — totally agree. love the dress and how it looks on Keira, the shoes are major fug though

  35. Jeri says:

    Just read that the cute young dark haired girl on Raising Hope is going with Andrew Garfield. Sorry I forgot her name.

  36. Sally says:

    Fantastic dress! Shoes totally don’t go though..

  37. original kate says:

    keira looks fantastic.

  38. albeli says:

    KK has atrocious posture.

  39. Jeannified says:

    Don’t like Kiera’s shoes. Doesn’t sdhe know that Chanel says you are supposed to match everything to give it the Chanel look? (Or so I’ve been told.)

  40. Jag says:

    Wow, Kiera looks gorgeous. Agree that the shoes should be different, but sheesh she looks perfect!

  41. lala in nYc says:

    Love.Her.Dress! A Lot!

    I wish I had the bone structure to pull off these cute pixie cuts.

    Hurray! Tomorrow is HGF!! TGI-HGF!

  42. bb says:

    Kiera looks great – but it looks like she knows it, if you know what I mean.

  43. mia says:

    Pretty sure if there had been a breeze poor Keira would have toppled over.

  44. mina says:

    Keira’s dress and make-up is so much better than Carey’s but Carey still looks more beautiful.KK has the most angular face I’ve ever seen.Gaunt cheeks,ugly nose and manly jawline…

  45. guesty says:

    that dress! so fab. not loving the shoes tho.

  46. dj says:

    Gorgeous Chanel. I agree the heavy, dark shoes with it are offputting. A nice stiletto would have been exquisite. Carrie looks cute but they do not look like they are going to same event. She just looks a little more casual. Both beautiful actresses.

  47. Mary Jane says:

    That is an amazing Chanel dress and Keira looks terrific. A few more pounds on her (would give her some boobs!) and a different pair of shoes (too clunky) and she would look absolutely perfect!
    And to gillie and Kaiser: here in Washington we have an AMAZING high-end second hand store (Texas Glad Rags — I think they have some other locations) and I have bought $300 cocktail dresses for as little as $15! I don’t go out often and at that price, I wear them around the house. Nothing like a pretty cocktail dress to make a woman feel beautiful — e’en whilst doing housework!
