The smoldering actress, who is good friends with Balenciaga designer Nicolas Ghesquiere (we're extremely jealous!), gets to play dress up in Balenciaga for the cover of the magazine, the accompanying fashion editorial and the fashion house's ad campaigns, in which she stars.
While the she opts for a Grecian-meets-futuristic draped dress and lace bandeau bralet from Balenciaga's Fall '09 collection for the cover, the inside spread shows a black-clad Connelly in a nouveau Goth getup.

This consists of a loosely knitted Balenciaga dress with a sexy cutout back and shiny gravity defying platform booties by Olivier Theysken for Nina Ricci that are so sky-high, at a towering eight inches, that the heel doesn't even touch the floor!
Think you could walk in these suckers? We'd certainly like to request a sample and try. For the sake of research, of course.

I do a lot of TV and modeling work. My business is all about looks and how to look perfect at any time, and any place. I’m not young anymore and this is now harder than ever. I thought my career was almost over but GenFX™ is my secret weapon. Quite honestly, I look 10 years younger than my real age!

The article says Balenciaga dress. Nina Ricci shoes.

Okay, Franny, it's not NICE to confuse a blonde! Yes, Franny, according to the caption beneath the second photo, and within a paragraph contained in the body of the text, it's stated Jennifer IS wearing Nina Ricci shoes!
The dress IS Balenciaga, the shoes, Nina Ricci by Olivier Theysken.

Who cares!!! My boyfriend thinks the same with me. He is eight years older than me, lol. We met online at AgelessFriends.com, a nice place for Younger Women and Older Men, or Older Women and Younger Men, to interact with each other. Maybe you wanna check out.

Stupid shoes for stupid people
Does anyone really think these are hot? If they do, they need their head examined.
And I'm into shoes, too!!!

The shoes are cool. I couldn't wear them.
In my younger days I might have bought them(or some cheap knockoff). I loved my platform heels and wedgies. I have always had a thing for boots. I wear cowboy boots and jeans now most of the time. Hubby is a cowboy.

Of course she cant walk you would have to be a ballerina and walk on tip toes. Thats why she said *I cant walk in these things ..give me a place to lean and balance!* to the photog assistant. yes Peg... most of us love our boots.

These shoes are for fashion shoots, and nothing else. I don't even try to sell them anymore. It's best to stick to the classics!

How did Jennifer Connelly ever get into the acting business? She is one plain Jane.Nothing even remotely attractive about her. She should try wearing some attractive shoes to make herself look better,not ugly shoes that make her look worse. Not even REMOTELY alluring,this ad.

There are some shoes that don't even look good in a fashion shoot. Do women who wear them at these sessions think that BECAUSE it's a fashion shoot,that they will look somehow HIP? Just awful. NO woman in her right mind would wear them. Obviously,someone paid her (don't know why-I could find a more attractive woman on my street) a lot of money to wear them,so I guess somehow it validates them. But to think that women who see that photo would even THINK about wearing them,is ludicrous and insulting to all women.
