EVA MENDES IN FENDI

Eva Mendes wore this black and white Fendi babydoll dress to the Paris premiere of "Film".

This black and white runway look from Fendi's Spring 2008 collection is the closest dress to Eva Mendes' look.

Eva Mendes' babydoll dress is just as chic as Lauren Conrad and Solange Knowles in Betsey Johnson.

Simply said, are babydoll dresses making a comeback in 2008?

Time will only tell...

WHO WORE DG RESORT BETTER?

"Cashmere Mafia" actress Bonnie Somerville recently wore this yellow Dolce and Gabbana resort dress to The Art of Elysium 10th Anniversary Gala.

Last year Eva Mendes attended the launch party of the Campari Calendar 2008 in the same yellow Dolce & Gabbana Resort silk gown with the oversize bow under the bodice.

Style Verdict: Eva most certainly wins this fashion comparison.

Doesn't she look divine in that D&G dress.

WHO WORE TEMPERLEY LONDON BETTER?

Last July, designer Alice Temperley wore this black and white design from her Fall 2007 collection.

Actress Eva Mendes rock the same Temperley London gown in creme and black to Gotham Magazine bash at Buddha Bar.

Style Verdict: For this fashion comparison, it's the designer versus the label favorite but Eva rock the look better than the designer.

EVA MENDES: BEST-DRESSED 01

2007 is over but Obsessed-Hoopla hasn't announced its best-dress pick of the year.

That honor deservingly goes to actress and Revlon spokesmodel Eva Mendes.

In 2007, Eva wore couture pieces from Dolce and Gabbana, Temperley, Narciso Rodriguez, Michael Kors, Valentino, Calvin Klein, and Catherine Malandrino.

Eva was one busy lady in 2007. Mendes found time to shed clothes (for PETA) and also did a calendar spread for Campari in 2007.

For best-dressed honorable mentions, please refer to my sidebar!

VERSACE: WHO GOT IT?

R&B songstress Ciara rocking her brown locs in a bone-straight style attended the 4th Annual VH1 Hip Hop Honors at New York City's Hammerstein Ballroom in a sequin Fall 2007 Versace mini.

"Gotham" magazine cover girl Eva Mendes flaunting her embellished Contrario ring pose in the same dress for the issue's November photo spread.

Style Verdict: Both ladies are equally working this dress. The fit is hard to judge on Eva's part but those platform Versace shoes makes up for it. Ciara's style has been on point lately and I love the way she match the dress with matching Sergio Rossi pumps. *[My back on the low quality of the pictures, folks!] Nonetheless you know the drill....
