Lily Cole Wears 'Pippa Middleton' Bridesmaid Dress To 'Snow White & The Huntsman' Premiere (PHOTOS, POLL)

When a dress is good, it's good.

Take this stunning pre-fall 2009 Alexander McQueen dress: three different ladies (at least!) have slinked their way down red carpets -- and wedding aisles -- in it.

Cameron Diaz, who first wore the gown in red to the 2010 Golden Globe Awards, amped up the glam factor in the slithery frock.

Next, of course, was Pippa Middleton, who turned more than a few heads when she slipped into the white gown to play the most famous bridesmaid in the world back in April 2011. (While Pippa's version of the gown was embellished with a few custom and festive details, it was still the same basic dress.)

And now, just Monday night, actress and "Moth Diaries" star Lily Cole tried the McQueen frock on for size, taking the black version for a spin on the "Snow White & The Huntsman" red carpet.

While Cole's raven-black gown wasn't nearly as sheer or, uh, underwear-revealing as the black dresses that Kristen Stewart and Charlize Theron wore at Monday night's premiere, it certainly fit the spooky vibe of the evening's red carpet.

Who wore the dress best? Check out the pics below and cast your ballot:

Is it just me, or does Lily Cole have an incredibly tiny head?????

I didn't vote on this one because none of the three looks very good in that dress. Pippa has the best body of the three, but that style needs more curves -- and LOTS more bosom -- than any of these ladies have.

...offtrack, but admit it. Kate and Pippa have really thrown a spark into that dodgy moldy old British Royalty thing.

Lily Cole and Cameron Diaz are wearing the same dress. Pippa Middleton's is a different, just similar in style.
09:46 PM on 06/30/2012
Agreed. The waistline in the outer two dips in a V, Pippa's rises in an A, which I find more attractive. The woman on the left looks uncomfortable in her shoulders.

something is wrong with Lily Cole, her head or arms or something, very creepy, kind of Morticia Adams but creepier.
Cameron is okay but Pippa has better curves. Pippa wins1

I always had a thing for Carolyn Jones as Morticia, and Pippa as well, so... Totally Agreed. LOL!

I remember thinking Pippa looked amazing the day Will and Kate got married. But now I look at her and am not as "wowed". For some reason, the angle of this picture isn't flattering. However, I like her dress and the material of that dress much more than the other two. I also like the detail along the neckline and arms on the white dress. As far as the other dresses go - that satiny material is atrocious.

People went on and on about Pippa out doing her sister, no way!
Pippa rocks her curves and the material is fantastic, she has better curves and cleavage then Cameron and Lily
Pippa is very pretty but she's not Catherine!

I like the color of Cameron's the best but I feel like Lliy fills it out the best. Pippa is so slim in the hips that's all I see. She needs those padded hip and booty panties that Fredericks of Hollywood sells!

This is a classic silhouette that has been around since the 1930s. It is hilarious how hard the media tries to make this girl happen so that they can sell clothes off her. No one here is copying Pippa and Pippa was certainly not original. You can't say every girl is copying Pippa for wearing this cowl neck dress just like you can't tell every bride who wears lace that she's copying Kate.

True but the media will continue to push this story line and the sheep will go out and buy these clothes to emulate these non fashionable, non celebrity women.

That dress silhouette from McQueen had been around long before Pippa wore it. They basically just made it in white for her.

Lily Cole is an odd looking critter.

Albeit a very smart one.

Pippa's dress is not the same. Aside from the fabric and the trim the seam where the bodice connects the waist to the body of the dress points up in a rounded fashion giving her the semblance of a figure. In the other two dresses that same seam points down in a pointed V shape.

This difference in detail gives the dress an entirely different appearance, aside from the fact that Pippa's dress was designed for a wedding and a royal wedding at that, and the quality of the fabric reflects that.

I agree - that difference in detail really changes the dress. I like the seam pointing upward, myself.

Pippa's dress is not the same as the other two!! Who writes fashion for HP?! The fabric is different so are the details. There are small similarities, but they are not the same dress. Cameron and Lily's dresses are the same.

I don't think the red and black dresses look like the white one.   Question for those in the know:  In the 3 pictures shown, are any of the women wearing shoulder pads?

Lily's and Cameron's dresses have the sculpted shoulder pad that McQueen was doing for some time. Pippa has really broad shoulders naturally so they probably just omitted them for her version of the dress.
04:28 PM on 05/15/2012
Pippa does not have any hips. Shoulder pads help balance out a women's figure if her hips are considerably wider than her shoulders creating an illusion of a more shapely balanced body and figure. In Pippa's case adding shoulder pads would have given her the look of wider shoulders making her hips look even smaller. They were not warranted in her case.
