Last night was the big premiere for The Immortals, that 300-looking film with Henry Cavill attempting to look like Gerard Butler. I actually think Cavill is more traditionally handsome than Gerard… but for some reason, I think The Immortals looks totally dumb, while I still think 300 is pretty awesome – is it because of The Butler? The Fassbender? Who knows? Anyway, I don’t really care about any of the dudes at the premiere (Kellan Lutz was there, in all of his Kellan Lutzy glory), so let’s just talk about the girls. Specifically, let’s talk about Freida Pinto in this Antoni Berardi gown.
Now, you know I think Freida is one of the most beautiful girls out there. Her face is magnificent. She has a slender figure that is a great “hanger” for so many styles and designers. I think she probably has a great eye for fashion too. But I kind of hate this dress on her. First of all, it looks like a knockoff of something Alexander McQueen would have done. Second of all, there’s a bridal vibe to it – I think it’s because of the overblown white and all of the bodice work. Thirdly, I dislike Frieda’s too-heavy makeup with this dress. If she had styled it differently, I think I might have liked it more. Still, even though I’m not crazy about this look, she’s so striking and pretty.
I also found Isabel Lucas to be “striking” at the premiere too. But mostly I was struck by how she looks sickly and deathly. She’s lost weight and that blonde makes her look terrible. So rough. I hope she gets some help, both psychologically and sartorially. The awful dress is Roksanda Ilincic, by the way. Hideous.

Shiny material across your abs is not really ideal. She (FP) is drop dead gorgeous, but that dress is a nightmare – way too much going on.
The blonde needs something to eat and an iron – stat!
The color does nothing for Frieda!
I love the makeup and hair. The dress is pretty too; however, the designer could’ve gone with a different material for the mid-section.
Spot on with the sartorial assessment. On both counts.
I think that FP is one of the most beautiful actresses out there, but the dress, the fabric and the cut do absolutely nothing for her. That weird patch of shiny fabric across the abs makes her look wide when she is very slender. Although it isn’t her best look, she still looks gorgeous. I think the color would be OK on her though, but with a completely different material and cut (and no embelishments – that approaches bridal territory). IL needs to eat, and put some low lights in. Might soften up her face a bit. But I will say that she has stunning eyes.
I can say nothing about the bleached blonde that hasn’t already been said (ick)… yes, Frieda is lovely- but that gown looks like it belongs in the costume department of a sci-fi production.
i want frda skin, so pretty!
Isabel always looks like that! You can take a hundred photos of her and they are all the same. She is the most bland, beautiful, ugly person around. I really don’t get her appeal at all, unless it’s the look stupid all the time look they like?
I know I should no longer care, or expect anything different, but WHY is Isabel Lucas playing Athena in this movie?? Do they (and I guess I mean Hollywood in general by that “they”) not know anything about Greek mythology?! Athena was everything Isabel Lucas appears to NOT BE. I just don’t get it. Sigh.
I don’t understand Isabelle Lucas.
When you look at her, she has nice facial features, cute figure. But for some reasons she made everything to look like an elf.
With a gorgeous darker hairstyle, sexier gown she would look 100 times better but she always like to look like a lost young shapeless character coming right from a children fairytale !
Can’t she just like like in those pictures ?

At 26, she desperatly needs a stylist and needs to lose that innocent elf like look ASAP !
As for Freida, I wish that with that beautiful exotic looks of her, she would spice it up a little bit and dresses less conservative, wether it’s with sexier hairstyles, sexier gowns or brighter colors.
With that skin she can afford it !
I’m gonna say Star Trek fug.
I like Freida’s hair and makeup. The girl is so pretty. I’m not keen on the dress though. It’s strange and not in a good way.
As for Isabel, her nose ! (or lack thereof) And her hair looks so fake.
Frieda’s dress looks so heavy.
Isabel Lucas…Give that girl a sandwich!
Kaiser is correct, it is The Butler who made 300 special…the Immortals looks like something teen boys would play in a video game…ugh…not interested in pretty boys with shaved chests…although The Butler got away with it in 300, he was so masculine it worked.
That Norwegian looking chick as Athena? Give me a break…
Hmm… i’m so biased toward Pinto, she looks good in everything to me. The sleeves are especially weird though. Without the Jetsons effect of those I think it’d be a decent win on her.
Freida is so pretty, but I don’t care for that dress.
Star Wars bridal fug.
I totally agree with @Lisa
People need to learn that not everyone looks good as a blone. More often than not it looks terrible, especially bleach blonde.
