Natalie Portman's Golden Globes Dress Gets the Most Buzz of the Night

By The Editors of StyleList Posted Jan 17th 2011 12:40AM

Natalie Portman is one of fashion's favorite muses as she wears clothes so well. In fact, she is expected to rule this red-carpet season.

But her Golden Globes gown choice, a Viktor & Rolf pink strapless gown with the big red rose smack in front, had fashion gurus and a great deal of the Twittersphere buzzing.

It was a sweet color. The floaty layers were adorable. Its empire waist was perfect for Portman's tiny pregnant tummy. And no one could deny she was pretty, especially as she accepted the award for Best Actress.

But some called the big red rose at the dress's bustline 'horrible.' One said it might make her cry. "Natalie Portman looked so glowing and gorgeous. Somehow though her dress reminded me of a Valentine's Day chocolate box," tweeted one watcher.

Others loved it and said the rose was endearing and lovely. "I like it. It's different and doesn't play it safe," said @sunkistdaisy when we took a quick poll.

Accessorized with a bright-red bag and red high-heel shoes (be careful, you are with child!), her look definitely gets our vote for the riskiest look of all those on the carpet.

The dress was definitely different but I think she looks absolutely stunning, like always...she's beautiful no matter what she wears.

The beautiful pink fabric and the sparkly red rose were gorgeous on her. She was happy and radiant. Can't you people deal with a dress that is not trying to be trashy? She was stunning! NO one else came close to her beauty and style.

I love it. Everything about the dress and Portman is gorgeous. The critics must have had little to criticize this year if they're are picking on a rose!

Notice the prettiest dresses had the least cleavage; ladies, more naked is not more attractive. Cover up and try to be as glamorous as Angelina.

I don't get this it all, i thought it was beautiful.

The dress and its wearer looked great. There is nothing wrong with the rose,
its positioned there so that is the first thing you look at and not her tummy.

The red rose is a subliminal reminder of the red stain on her White Swan costume in the final act. She's a wonderful actress and lovely woman.

I thought Natalie looked gorgeous. I'm so happy she won. She was quite remarkable in The Black Swan. I think she's going to be the next Audrey Hepburn.
