Angelina's Azria Dress? Totally Backwards!
Filed under: CELEBRITY STYLE, Celebrity, Red Carpet
Is That the Front or the Back?
Remember Angie's navy dress from the SAG Awards? Turns out she wore it back-to-front -- on purpose! Check out our gallery for more celebs who went backwards on the red carpet.

Anne Heche
There's just something awkward about Anne Heche's belly button cleavage. Her dress shows some skin, but rather than look sexy, it gives the impression she got confused and put the gown on the wrong way.

Nelly Furtado
Either this dress is facing the wrong way, or isn't meant to be worn with a bra (much less a gold, shiny bra).

Pamela Anderson
As if Pam needs an excuse to show off her uber-inflated chest, the actress can now claim she's hopping on the back-to-front bandwagon (and not just flashing us).

Jennifer Lopez
OK, it's possible that J-Lo is wearing this (Amish-inspired?) dress the way it was intended -- but it's not a good sign that we can't tell for sure.

Celine Dion
The singer's now infamous backwards tuxedo landed her on nearly every "worst dressed" list in 1999.

Jennifer Garner
Here's another one we're not so sure about. Jennifer is gorgeous as always, but the cut of her dress is just so awkward -- it has to be backward...right?

Rachel Bilson
Rachel is another actress who's donned a backward dress on purpose. Her risky move paid off, and made her the big hit of this 2007 Chanel event.

Alexa Chung
Apparently Alexa wasn't enamored with her look. She's wearing her denim dress facing forward in this shot, but paps caught her later with it on in reverse!

Jennifer Morrison
We're pretty sure this dress is backwards -- and pretty sure Jennifer did it on purpose. But while Rachel and Angie pulled it off, this look went from frumpy...to downright unfortunate.

That Angie. She refuses to do anything the traditional way. All those tattoos, the vial of Billy Bob's blood, and of course her many, many children. But lately her fashion has been sorta boring -- the same sleek, strapless black dress every time.
She changed it up at the SAG awards, wearing a blue Max Azria dress that we loved. Now we learn that of course she did Angie-style. The dress was designed to be worn with the deep V in the front, but as her stylist told the Mirror, she wore it backwards for a "more blouson" look. Because, you know, she's totally French.
We're just impressed that they were able to switch the train so it stayed in the back -- wish we had her tailor!

Some women look better from the back than the front.

That is not the same dress as the one on the runway--the skirt is not the same, nor is the drape. She's a beautiful woman but she has not dressed well for red carpet events lately. It is possible to be unique, even a little avant garde, without looking boring or frumpy. She needs a new stylist.

Angie could be a good looking woman but with all of the tattoos she has. They make her look like an ex-con or a g.i. joe.

The writer of the article doesn't pay attention. Angelina does NOT wear the "same sleek strapless black dress every time." She wore one ONCE! As for the vial of blood, that has been YEARS ago. WHY is the writer still harping about that?! Besides, it was something Billy Bob wanted her to do. Six children is NOT many, many children. The couple who has 18 children is an example of many, many children.

if the gown is backward why is the train flowing from Angie's back rather than wadded in front? makes no sense, just hype to ???

I want to know how she lost all the baby weight so quickly. All these celebs seem to bounce back to stick size in less than 3 months. I gained 45 pounds with my little boy and it took me about a year to lose it. I ate healthy smaller portions of unproccessed foods..ate little carbs in the evening and had smaller portions. I also added fitflax http://www.fitflax.com to my yogurt every day. It helped with my weight loss and has made my skin "glowier"

You know what? All of you who are negative about Angie are just jealous. She could make a brown paper bag look good. Know why? Because she is the absolutely most gorgeous woman around. Brad is a lucky, lucky man.

Angelina is gorgeous but her choices for clothing in public, especially after the black leather she wore with Brad a couple years ago, ahve been off....
