Kim Kardashian vs. Gwyneth Paltrow: Who Wore It Better? (PHOTOS)

Gwyneth Paltrow and Kim Kardashian usually couldn't dress more differently. While Kardashian favors the kind of attention-getting outfits that made her a big reality TV star, Paltrow, the Oscar-winning actress, leans toward elegant gowns with simple lines.

But the tides have shifted, the stars have aligned and hell might have even frozen over in the south of France, because Kim appeared at an event in the same dress that Paltrow wore last year. Le gasp!

Kardashian wore a two-piece lace fall 2011 Pucci dress in Cannes this week that showed off a sliver of her midriff, the same dress that Gwynnie wore to the 2011 Emmys (and caused quite a stir in).

Two celebs, one hot Pucci dress: who wore it better? Check out the midriffs below and weigh in.

Kim definitely looks better. In general I believe that women with curves look better. Some women want to look like stick and some men find it attractive...I don't get it.

I voted for Gwyneth, but that may be a bias toward a slimmer figure, which tends to show off fashion better. I have to admit that Kim looks better than usual in this dress. Pretty good in fact.

What is wrong with a voluptuous body? Some clothing look better on thinner women, some don't.
09:59 AM on 05/27/2012
Kim looks like she's about to get behind a wheel to weave a carpet. Gwyneth on the other hand looked opulent.

Kim looks better in any dress than any other celebrity.

Cant stand neither one of them, but I think (chokeing as I tpe this) Kim looked better. Partrow, looked like hers was too small and somewhat trashy.

And right after Gwyneth saw that she was being compared with a Kardashian, she went and projectile vomited into a trash can. Then she burned the dress.

By far, Miss Gyneth looks smashing. KK is too chunky looking nowadays. Doesn't look good at all.
Paltrow wins by a landslide.
