Best and worst dressed at Cannes

Best and worst dressed at Cannes

Best: Mommy-to-be Angelina Jolie glowed in a gorgeous green Max Azria gown, while her main squeeze Brad Pitt picked a classic Tom Ford tux.

Worst: We applaud fashion-forward stars who take risks, but Madonna's outrageous octopus-inspired Chanel creation crashed on the red carpet.

Best: Silver fox Harrison Ford and his honey Calista Flockhart impressed in simple yet chic ensembles.

Worst: Julianne Moore proved that few women look yummy in yellow. The 4-time Oscar nominee disappointed in haute couture courtesy of Christian Lacroix.

Worst: Apparently aging action star Jean-Claude Van Damme raided Sonny Crockett's closet. The kickboxer's retro ensemble, which consisted of a pastel tee and a stark white Italian sport coat, screamed Miami circa '85.

Best: Armani muse Cate Blanchett got gussied up in a sophisticated strapless gray gown.

Worst: Eva Longoria Parker should have kept it sleek and slim; however, the diminutive diva's cascading tulle was an absolute catastrophe.

Worst: Gwyneth Paltrow's status as a fashion icon was jeopardized when she debuted this bow-trimmed hip-hugging Chanel tragedy.

Best: Bollywood box office queen Aishwarya Rai exemplified true elegance in her bejeweled champagne-colored gown and matching heels.

Worst: Linda Evangelista glittered in a gold Alber Elbaz potato sack that she quite possibly stole from Linda Evans' "Dynasty" dressing room.

Best: Natalie Portman looked cute as a button in her flirty blue cocktail frock designed by one of Europe's oldest fashion houses, Lanvin.

Worst: Salma Hayek typically rules the red carpet in masterpieces from the world's leading fashion mavens, but this matronly green mess was far from regal.

Worst: The woman best known for solving paranormal crimes on The X Files, Gillian Anderson forgot to solve her own fashion faux pas. Even Dana Scully wouldn't be caught dead in this boring bath mat.

Best: Despite her wild mane and unnecessary shades, the gorgeous Goldie Hawn put women half her age to shame in sexy white chiffon.

Worst: Talk show troublemaker Star Jones didn't exactly shine upon arriving in Cannes. Her heinous multi-colored halter dress lacked class... and enough fabric!

Best: Burlesque beauty Dita Von Teese embodied old Hollywood glamour in her exquisite Christian Lacroix invention.

Worst: F-lister Phoebe Price, whose biggest role to date was a guest spot on the now defunct "Arli$$," made the worst dressed list in a matter of minutes thanks to this venomous gown.

Worst: Former supermodel Eva Herzigova turned heads -- in a bad way -- in this gaudy and gauzy floor-length flop.

Best: Spanish siren Penelope Cruz showed off her best assets in an ivory Marchesa frock.

I agree with you on Goldie Hawn but totally disagree with you on Linda Evangelista and Eva Herzigova. I thought they ROCKED their dresses! It's the red carpet, not a memorial!
