Kristen Stewart’s two Chanel looks in NYC this week: stunning or dated?

Kristen Stewart has been in NYC this week to do promotional work for Clouds of Sils Maria and Camp X-Ray. A few nights ago, she wore a J. Mendel minidress that I didn’t really love but didn’t completely hate either. But for the past two nights, Kristen has been representing her Chanel contract and she wore some interesting Chanel looks. First up: this Chanel Fall 2014 dress which she wore to the Clouds of Sils Maria premiere at the New York Film Festival. I really, really like this. This is a great dress for Kristen in particular and in general, for any starlet. I’m loving the fact that long sleeves seem to be on trend this year and I just think “black with shiny metallic details” is a great look for her.

Kristen’s other Chanel look came on Tuesday, when she did a “Meet the Filmmakers” event at the Soho Apple Store. The event was for Camp X-Ray. This Chanel look was from the Spring 2015 collection… I’m not a big fan. It’s like Karl Lagerfeld was trying to do deconstructed, high-fashion overalls and it just looks… dated and weird. Meanwhile, everybody’s talking about how Kristen seems pretty relaxed these days. She doesn’t seem to have any romantic drama and she’s supporting three films she believes in. Sources told E! News that K-Stew is “in a really good place right now.”

    I hate both looks, especially the second one. Horrible imo!

    • CTgirl says:

      The first one looks like RoboCop and Snow White had a tawdry affair and this dress is the result of that tryst. When I saw the second dress, I immediately imagined Christopher Plummber singing a dirty version of “Edelvweiss”.

  2. Dani2 says:

    Don’t like either at all, the second look is definitely the worse one though, it doesn’t even look like something you could force me to buy from Forever 21.

  3. Chris2 says:

    Cripes those crummy laceups with the awful leather playsuit do no-one any favours!
    (Someone could make a fortune offering deportment lessons to graceless starlets. Ist week: how to stand up.)

    • Chrissy says:

      Agree, she has the worst posture.

    • Rocketmerry says:

      Awfuk look, should have never made it to a red carpet. I like the first dress, though. And yes, bad posture, but it’s part of her shtick.

      I’m kind of glad she’s doing better, I like her.

  4. Kiddo says:

    Choupette and Karl are definitely trolling. Holy hell, this is hilarious. To sum it all up: It’s Oktoberfest meets Tin Man from Oz with a dainty lady-welder (or blacksmith). LMAO

  5. Mrs. Wellen Melon says:

    She is not selling herself or the clothes. Fugly.

    • Kiddo says:

      She looks mortified and she’s hiding in one shot. Can’t say I blame her, Choupette is diabolical.

      *Adds to Goodnames ‘ Just Yikes!™ collection.*

  6. Artimis says:

    Lorks even the peerless Binoche looks dreadful! Usually I’m all for bangs (sorry Kaiser! :D) but these – no. Just no.

  7. the.princess.leia says:

    I like the dress actually. Its almost like KK is trolling Marchesa/Georgina Chapman with his “this is how you do ice skating costume turned high fashion dress, peasant” and I love it! The second outfit is horrible.
    The thing that stands out the most to me is what appears to be a legitimate KStew smile! She really does look genuinely happy.

    • Anname says:

      The black dress immediately reminded me of one of those French maid outfits – apron and all. It’s all I see.
      She looks happy, good for her.

  8. FingerBinger says:

    The first dress kind of looks like a Christmas dress,it just needs to be green and red.

  9. Gretchen says:

    It took me a while to realise she is with Juliette Binoche in the second picture, talk about bangs trauma! She is such a beautiful woman but that hair makes her look like a rather severe headmistress.

  10. An says:

    OMG THAT’S JULIETTE BINOCHE WTF???????

  11. Moni1624 says:

    Er…. am I the only one who thinks she bears a really strong resemblence to Liberty Ross in that photo of her with Juliette Binoche?!!!

  12. Luciana says:

    Her hair is bothering me. I bet she loves it…. The first dress is cute and looks amazing on her. The leather jumper is a disaster.

  13. Meow says:

    Both ugly IMHO. It’s a shame as I have seen her in beautiful dresses.

  14. Steph says:

    Can anyone tell me why she has that tattoo?

  15. Lempicka says:

    Love the dress, hate the small boys uniform. Im all for long hair on myself but that haircut is great on her.

  16. Tig says:

    Re the first- the length is a good one for her, but way over-embellished. All I can think of is the saddles the horses wear in the Rose Bowl parade. The second is just abysmal.

    Juliette needs to have a sit down with whoever cut those bangs- unless she’s playing a monk from the Middle Ages in an upcoming film.

    • Luciana says:

      I am more worry about what is going on with her sweater. Is it stuck in her belt? I cannot figure out what its happening hahahaha

  17. Adrien says:

    I like her hair. Reminds me of emo-phase, Wino forever, Winona Ryder.

  18. serena says:

    I’m liking her more these days but those dresses are ugly as hell (the shiny sleeves looks so tacky!).

    And shall we talk about the unfortunate hairstyle of Juliette Binoche?

  19. shunty says:

    Did she tan? I love her skin. That’s all I have on every Kristen Stewart thread

  20. Nan says:

    Love the first, like the second. So good to see her finding clothes that are “hers” and she is able to wear with obvious enjoyment.

  21. Isadora says:

    Ok, I’m strange, but I really like both. 😉
    I think the first one looks striking and glamorous on her and the second one would probably look awkward on a lot of people but on her it looks kind of tomboyish and a bit … punk. I don’t know… The skirt is a bit strange, yes, but all in all it’s looking nice, I think.

    I also think her hair is great these days. Juliette Binoche’s not so much. Ugh.

  22. Sarah says:

    It’s funny, something in her expressions reminds me of Jodie Foster at times.

  23. Div says:

    Um, I can’t even look at her dresses that closely because OMG Juliette. What did Juliette Binoche do! She’s beautiful and that page boy hair ages her so much.

    I like the first dress, hate the second. To her credit, she looks way happier (saw pics of her with a huge smile in one article) and more relaxed. She’s always going to be awkward, but she comes across as less awkward as of late.

  24. Insomniac says:

    Those are some of the ugliest dresses I’ve ever seen — did she wrap up her arms in tinfoil? Does her stylist hate her? WTF?

    Man, this is going to be a long Oscar season. I’m already sick to death of seeing Kristen and Ben Affleck everywhere, and we’ve still got a long way to go before the nominations.

  25. St says:

    She looks laughable. Really. She can not wear that dresses and look cool.

  26. Just Me (and my Bobby McGee) says:

    I never thought I’d see the day, but overalls are back. Still awful, but back.

    As for Kristen, I think she looks cute in the first dress. Not so much in the overall disaster.

  27. Tracy says:

    I love the dress on both women. And the both look happy. I wonder if Kristen regrets having her hair cut for her last movie? I loved her long hair, but she looks beautiful with short hair.

    • joyce thomas says:

      She looks cute with the short hair but she really needed someone to comb/fix it before the indoor photo event started with the black tinfoil dress. It looked like it was windy outside as she came in and just started being photographed. I saw some close-ups on another site and it is a tangled mess with ends sticking out all over. I think for her in her daily life it will be difficult for her to style and will either be slicked back or covered with a trucker’s cap. She is very pretty when she smiles.

  28. Nikki L. says:

    Imma be the odd man out here and say I love the first look a lot. It suits her well. The second one is meh, mainly because of the shoe choice.

  29. dingdong says:

    To echo the “Edelweiss” theme:

    I’m picturing her as a backup dancer while Captain Von Trapp sings his death metal version of the traditional tune.
