Here are some photos from today’s Chanel show for Paris Fashion Week. Surprisingly enough, many of Karl Lagerfeld’s normal, go-to fashion girls were not in attendance (where was Vanessa Paradis?! Diane Kruger?!). Instead, we got Rihanna and Kristen Stewart. Those two are somewhat similar in that they both take a “screw this place” attitude towards fame and Hollywood and what’s “expected” of them. But both young women are also pretty messy. Granted, Rihanna’s “mess” seems a lot more epic than Kristen’s on a daily basis – Rihanna parties too hard, doesn’t show up to concerts on time, and Rihanna’s romantic entanglements are always extreme and chaotic. Compared to Rihanna, Kristen’s mess seems rather contained. She had a boyfriend, she cheated on him, he took her back and then he dumped her. She smokes pot. That’s it.
Personally, I don’t think either woman looked that amazing at the Chanel show. I like Kristen’s little white Chanel jacket, but the Madonna-esque gloves are bad, as is the jewelry (what is it?) and those CUT-OFF shorts are tragic. Why is Kristen so obsessed with booty shorts? You can see more photos of Kristen here.
As for Rihanna’s look… um… is this a robe? Should it be a robe? Is she wearing anything under it? The pearls don’t make it “classy”.

Aside from the fingerless gloves, which look stupid, KStew actually looks lovely here…
Wow you are a Goddess kstew a big f u to rob , this is what revenge looks like , rob is a dum b a $$ for letting a goddess like u go ..
Wow love Kristen’s look eat ure heart out Robbie this is what a real women looks like …
Can’t you Twihards learn how to communicate in standard English? Typing like a ten year old just makes you look and sound ridiculous.
She does look good here, apart from the ridiculous gloves, particularly where she’s smiling. Not stunning, but nice. However, I highly doubt she got dumped because of her looks. You call this “revenge”? Ha! Wait until you grow up some more….
Totally agree, I don’t mind the tiny shorts, they’re not vulgar looking and she always shows off her legs. Her styling is great and that jacket is amazing.
Yea. I think she looks cute. I’m sure I’ll get screamed at for it. So be it.
All Hollywood wears booty shorts so don’t make Kristen the minority.
I don’t care for the long jacket and the short shorts. It seems off to me. But her make up looks nice and she looks so much better when she smiles.
Wow. I cannot believe that I am actually writing this but… Kristen wins hands down.
Rihanna always looks a sloppy mess and here she does not disappoint.
Agreed!
I think Rihanna looks gorgeous in the second pic but her hair is killing me.
K Stew wins this round for sure. Nice to see her smiling.
As much as it pains me to say KStew wins. She looks so much better when she smiles and I like her make-up.
Rihanna looks like she is wearing a modern day version of the nightgowns the men wore on Little House on The Prairie. Although in the first pic where she is looking down, shot from the side angle her face looks stunning.
yep, Kristen looks great here.
and Rhianna is so pretty, I have no idea why she continues to wear ill fitting clothes..
Rhianna has such a gorgeous face…I just wish it was attached to a body that wore better clothes. 😉
I wonder if they ever feel a bit silly being this over dressed during the middle of the day. Kstew is smiling in these pictures, that is a bit of a change! She looks cute when she smiles.
+1
Agree Aiobahn
Is there a third option?
+1
@bluhare
+1 They both look like they are wearing Halloween costumes.
+1 There has to be…
Kristen Stewart vs. Rihanna?
Please.
Yep!! You nailed it perfectly.
I can’t believe it but Kristen looked better than Rihanna.
Is that a joke? Rihanna couldn’t be trashier if she tried.
Kristen is just a normal young woman but Rihanna is a raging crazy drug addict who is allergic to pants and gets her boobs out every chance she can……
But Rihanna is also much prettier than Kristin.
Kristin wins this round though.
Maybe if you totally disregard everything about her and get rid of that awful hair but having a pretty face doesn’t mean much when it is trumped by all your inner ugly
Lol Emily, we’re not judging inner ugly. Strictly the outside. And anyways, last I checked K. Stew banged a married man so that hardly puts her on a higher pedestal than Rihanna. K. Stew has rodent face, Rihanna can at least pass as pretty.
Actually, Vanessa Paradis was there and looked gorgeous (although very, very thin). You can see pics of her at the Daily mail.
Vannesa looks amazing! So much better then when she was near the end of her relationship with Depp. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2353461/What-Anna-Wintour-say-Rihanna-wears-unbuttoned-sheer-shirt-dress-Chanels-Paris-fashion-show.html
Agree with the two of you. Paradis knows how to dress. The other two? Try Hards.
Thanks for the pic-link. Vanessa looks classically gorgeous. I love and want Alexa’s shoes.
Thanks for the pic.
Now, Vanessa looks great. Why couldn’t we have had a nice big picture of her instead?
Kristen has a rat face. Sometimes she can look pretty, but not here.
I find her very pretty. And I LOVE what she’s wearing here.
I think she looks lovely here as well. Nice to see her smiling.
Agreed-she looks really good here.
money can’t buy you class nor pearls make you a lady. trashy is the word.
Is that a Paz de la Huerta cast off RiRi is wearing?
The win goes to KStew.
Kristen looks great. Rihanna looks like she crawled out of bed, grabbed her robe and some cheap pearls and went out. But, I’m sure on Fashion Police they will gush about what a style icon she is and name her best dressed of the week.
I usually like Chanel, but don’t like either look.
I agree. KS’s jacket does not fit her well and is incredibly dowdy. It has no styling at all. And the fingerless gloves with the little bag is too 90’s. Rihanna’s isn’t even worth commenting upon.
Kristen is stunning. If i had legs like that i’d wear booty shorts too!! She doesn’t have an obsession with them.
Rihanna looks ridiculous (nice hair though)
Um, those are Unkle Karl gloves on KS. Yes, these messy fashionistas kind of parallel the chaos at Chanel these days.
On the one hand, there’s the couture which neither young woman could understand without stylists. On the other hand, there are Chanel’s branded products that are knocked off and worn on the street by women wanting to BE RiRi and KS.
Put those two front and center at a Chanel show and have a lack of big names? Yes, Unkle Karl, Chanel has a problem.
Sorry, but having the biggest pop star on the planet and one of the most famous actresses in the world attend your fashion show is NOT a bad thing, in any shape or form.
Yes, they’re high profile, but the wrong celebrity can really hurt your brand. Sales of Burberry’s iconic tartan print plummeted in the UK after particularly trashy ex-soap actress Daniella Westbrooke – seriously she had one Google-worthy giant nostril from coke abuse – was picture dressed head to toe in it (with matching baby and pram, obviously!).
I doubt your average Chanel customer is a Twihard or into electro-stripper pop and even Blake Lively promoting their bags was considered “too downmarket” when she’s Jackie Onassis compared to Ri-Ri & K-Stew!
@tapioca, i get it that but both sort of out weigh any snobbery towards them by having a big fanbase. Not sure about Rihanna but Kristen has worn Chanel before and done a photoshoot with Karl and Chanel didn’t go out of business. When Kristen went to the Balenciaga fashion show last September (just after the big overblown scandal) balenciaga stores were reporting that the lemon jacket and other items she wore had sold out. She has been voted No.1 style icon in Glamour magazine for 2 or 3 years so sometimes i think that although the haters, naysayers and the ‘OMG, wash your hair!!! brigade shout louder than fans a lot of times, people do like her style.
@tapioca OMG I googled her and that nose , if you can call it one. That should be a warning for Lohan or anyone obsessed with nose candy!!! Horrifying.
@ Amelia- exactly who do you think votes for Glamour polls? Girls who dress like KS- scruffy. With the right stylist, she cleans up well- excepting the BD 2 disasters.
If being caught out grinding on her married director in broad daylight is an “overblown scandal”, you must live in an exciting place!
Kristen looks great.
Yes, and the fact that I can’t remember the last time I thought she looked great makes me want to comment. Plus; she looks clean and make up suits her and the whole look is good and I love it.
I like the jacket on KS- but the gloves and shorts are awful. Rihanna- what is all that about? Loved the classic Channel shoes, but that’s it for her outfit.
Agreed.
Kristen looks great.
Uh…do we have to choose one? I’m leaning towards Kristen but those bracelets, gloves and the fact that it appears as if her shorts are tearing at the bottom take away from the outfit. I really like her make-up though.
Kristen looks cute. The little gloves are just like Karl’s. Rihanna just looks cheap.
Neither, I’m not impressed with either one.
I agree with you AD!
Rihanna is just naturally gorgeous.
i think kristen looks neat, clean and beautiful
Regarding the outfit on Kristen… she probably didn’t get to choose it herself! Someone whether it be a stylist or a designer probably just chucks it all on her bed and says “WEAR!”
Yeah… because Kristen totally seems to type to be ordered about. Ahem
Yeah, and going to a fashion show is totally her idea and not her publicist’s./sarcasm
That’s how these high fashion shows work, though. You’re there as the designer’s guest, they provide the clothes and you wear what they’ve chosen with a smile on your face. If you don’t like it, don’t go.
Kristen hands down. Rihanna is trash
Whatever. I wish I was in Paris right now.
I’m with you. Don’t care about silly clothes but would kill to be walking around the Champs right now.
I’m no great Kristen defender, but if my legs looked like that, I’d wear booty shorts all the time too. I think she actually looks pretty here. Happy too. I don’t love the shoes, but the rest of the outfit is cool.
Are they even ‘booty’ shorts (HAAATE THAT WORD)?
Aren’t those the ones where your butt cheeks actually hang out the bottom?
Those are just regular shorts..
I think Kristen looks lovely. I LOVE the jacket, and pairing it with the short shorts is kind of cute – plus, she has awesome pins. I really like her make-up too. Nice work!
In this match-up KStew would always win for me by default, but I actually seriously love her white jacket!
I’m with the majority. Kristen looks better.
Rihanna needs to lay off the crack. Her teeth are starting to decay.
http://www.justjared.com/photo-gallery/2902454/rihanna-chanel-haute-couture-fashion-show-01/
Yikes!
Just because she is smiling, I choose Kirsten and that I like her jacket.
Deborah Messing in Will & Grace did the white shirt and big pearls better.
I like the idea of both outfits. Kristen’s is not bad – but it really annoys me the shorts are “cut-offs.” If they had had a tailored hem, I would find no fault in Kristen’s look – I quite like what she was going for.
I really like the sweepy sweater coat vibe of Rihanna’s dress but button up your chest, honey. There is not so fine a line between sexy and trashy. Even one button too low would have been acceptable but I do not like the unbuttoned below the navel look. And in this coat, I don’t think a dickey or bustier would have looked good.
But heaven help me, I love the layered pearl ropes look. I am such an 80s girl.
There is something wrong with Kristen’s face. There something weird on it. It looks like a smile.
Did you read dlisted on Kristen and Michael Pitt next to each other – ie, gloom and doom? It’s really funny, mean, but really funny.
She looks good, especially her make up looks great, but I think the gloves are odd for a girl her age.
Thanks for that. Just read it. I think Kristen suffers from BFR (Bitchy Resting Face). I learned about it today. It’s a serious problem for women.
http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/d7ab80d4a5/bitchy-resting-face
Vanessa was there, two seats down from Kristen.
Just saw Vanessa P’s pic- good thing her pic not posted here, bec she out- shines both KS and Rhianna!
Vanessa Paradis looks wonderful. Yes, as someone else above has written, KS shorts needed to be hemmed (and, for me, slightly longer) to look good in the city, otherwise she looks really nice.
Vanessa Paradis was there, and looked stunning. I actually love KStew’s look except for the gloves. Rihanna…not good. Which is so odd, because Rihanna is gorgeous but she desperately needs a new stylist.
Rihanna is a goddess.
ok, maybe you ladies can help me, cause i’m stumped. HOW is it possible that kristen has got these huuuge dark circles round her eyes whereas rihanna – and im pretty sure she parties way harder than most ppl in hwood – has flawless skin/ makeup? whats the trick, i wanna learn it!?? or does kstew secretly party way harder than riri does? what do you guys think?
Genetics? Iron? Both!?
I’m sure part of it is genetics. I am certainly not a partier, sleep 7-8 hrs a night, and I have always had huge dark circles. I’m also extremely pale, as is Kristen, so I don’t think that helps either.
Genetics.
I like Kristen’s outfit and she looks fantastic -great makeup artist-. She has great legs so she can wear whether shoes she wants and still look fine, I’m envious.
Kristen’s legs look very soft, maybe she needs to tone more, no? But smile is beautiful!
Is that a pasty or are we looking at the outline of Rihanna’s nipple piercing?
Well actually the lady behind Rihanna is lovely !
I would say they both look as tacky !
I don’t care for either outfit, but I love both pairs of shoes, particularly Rihanna’s.
If I had legs like KStew, I would wear booty shorts too. Her make up is nice, and when she smiles she looks cute but I think the picture AFTER the smile says it all ;D
Rihanna is so beautiful she can pull of the tackiest things (see: her whole frickin’ wardrobe).
Yeah, when you have a pretty face and nice body you can get away with anything!
However, I still think Rihanna would look so much better wearing clothes with more fabric and not expose so much skin! I would like to see her in like cutesy clothes, frills, girly,sweet and demure.
I didnt think Chanel could look cheap & trashy but with Rhianna wearing it, I stand corrected.
Why in hell can’t KStew stand up straight?
At least Rihanna looks like she’s glad to be there. KStew has on her usual bitch face.
Kshrew looks like Karl Lagerfeld in drag
i like kristen’s outfit and her makeup looks really good. i would skip the gloves, though, why are those making a comeback?
It’s kind of like trying to choose between two different kinds of crotch rot, but I guess Kristen.
Kristen’s head is too small.
Can’t I not like either look for the stench of try-hard coming off them both?
There I said it! I’m out.
Coco is rolling in her grave knowing these 2 half wits with zero fashion sense are wearing Chanel. Way to make Chanel look cheap & trashy.
I think it is Karl Lagerfeld’s fault. He is so wrong for Chanel, IMHO, of course.
Rihanna’s rough life of non-stop partying is catching up to her. She looks rough. Check out the photos on other sites. You can see her extremely tired eyes, her skin is crap and her hair is fried. Girl needs to stop with the partying and just focus on her concerts. Even though I think K-Stew’s outfit is ugly and stupid she does wear it well.
Kristen looks like she raided Miley Cyrus’ closet. Lose the gloves, lengthen the shorts a bit and it would have looked better. Rihanna is channeling JLo’s green Grammy dress looks, complete with double stick tapes. These outfits are try hard. There are at an elegant fashion house and they are going for hoochie. SMH.
+1
If you have to hold your purse in front of your crotch to avoid flashing the world, Rihanna, maybe you need to button a couple more buttons below the waist.
Not a fan of K-Stew by any means, and I luv Rihanna–but K-Stew wins by a LONG shot here. Rihanna looks like a little girl trying on a man’s sweater.
Kristen has amazing skin. Great makeup, too. Not too sure about her top, though. It looks too stiff and formal. It’s better off paired with a pencil skirt or cigarette pants.
Yay!!!! It looks like she’s showered for the occasion!
Also: I don’t know if I’ve ever seen Kristin smile before, because when I saw that pic of her smiling & waving I thought Wow, she looks so pretty when she smiles!
I don’t necessarily love Rihanna but she is very very pretty and much more beautiful than fartsy Stew.
The woman in the black top and white bottom dress in last photo with RiRi looks AMAZING and CLASSY. Ladies, this is how it is done.
Amazingly KStew looks better
Why is Rihanna wearing a beach coverup with heels? Girl needs some flip flops.
They both look equally revolting.
WOW! Look at Kristen! Doesn’t she look great?
I wish she looked like this all the time.
Kristen looks better. I wish she would have worn something like this to the met gala.
Rihanna is so pretty, but I don’t care for what she is wearing.
I think they both look great!!!
do you think the stylist has to put her in the shower him or herself?
Kristen has some huge ears! I hate teasing ppl about things they cant change but yikes. Never noticed how big they are until now
This is the first time I’ve ever looked at a picture of KStew and thought “hey, she is kinda pretty.” But she’s really not any better than any other skinny petite girl her age after professional stylists have gone to town. No, nevermind, I’m back to being mystified at her massive appeal and success. She is so unbelievably average in looks and personality.
Why is smoking pot thrown in there as a bad thing? |:
That’s a long cardigan. worn as a dress.
kristen looks amazing. rihanna looks like a hot mess!
I don’t think Rihanna is wearing anything underneath she’s covering her hoo haa wither Chanel purse in every photo
