Who wore it best? Cameron Vs. Pippa
By Eleanor Young on Tuesday 3 May 2011
Pippa Middleton stole the show when she stepped out in a cream Alexander McQueen creation as Kate Middleton’s Maid of Honour at the Royal Wedding on Friday, but we couldn’t shake the feeling we’d seen it before. And we had! On Cameron Diaz, at Golden Globes in 2009.
The pair played style snap on two very different red carpets, but who do YOU think rocked the look best?
Hollywood royalty Miss Diaz gave the form-fitting McQueen gown it’s first public outing more than a year ago at the glittering Golden Globe Awards in 2009.
Cameron chose a red version of the slinky satin dress for her award appearance, accessorising her A-list outfit with towering Ferragamo peep-toes, a glittering gold Van Cleef and Arpel, and a sweep of sizzling red lipstick.
The star also accessorised with a cleverly matched umbrella on the rainy evening.

More than a year later, the fresh-faced and dazzling younger Middleton stepped out in the very same gown as she played Maid of Honour at the wedding of the century – the nuptials of William and Kate.

Pippa kept her winter white version perfectly sleek and simple, adding towering white Jimmy Choos, drop diamond and pearl earrings - reportedly designed by her mother – and Lily of the Valley flowers in her Richard Ward-tended tresses.

Designers at McQueen also added a tiny embellished edge to Miss Middleton’s glittering gown, finishing off with a line of slinky, silk covered buttons, running the length of her spine.

Definitely Pippa.
Comment by Solapsis on May 03 12:56
I think Pippa wore it best! She is beautiful just like her now royal sister. x
Comment by Kate on May 03 12:58
They're two different dresses - very similar, but different. You can see across the waist that pippa's 'triangle goes up, whereas cameron's triangle goes downwards which means the fabric will hang differently. Also the detail on the sleeves is different and the chest line. I prefer Pippa from the front, but not the dress from the back.

Pippa definitley.
Comment by Kim on May 03 17:00
The dresses are NOT the same. Very similar but the under bust stitching makes each dress hang differently. Pippa deffo gets my vote. No contest

Comment by courtney james locke on May 03 19:26
Pippa knocked spots off Cameron and is a natural beauty like her sister. She looked elegant, stunning, classy and absolutely gorgeous in that dress...very befitting for a maid of honour at a royal wedding
Comment by Gill on May 03 21:10
Pippa looked fabulous winner hands down!!!
Comment by Kathleen on May 03 21:14
pippa looked lovely in her dress so does cameron in hers, but though the dresses look alike they are not the same, i liked pippa dress better it had more detail to it.x
Comment by lemons on May 03 22:54
The dresses are very similar but there are subtle differences eg neckline, waist, colour!! Pippa's dress was how I'd imagined Kate's would be. Now that would have been stunningly different. Pippa definately stole the show, she looked sensational - which she was.
Comment by She0212 on May 03 22:59
Pippa's dress is much nicer and worn better. As before the dresses are not identical only similar in styling. Pippas dress hangs much better as Cameron's looks much too tight to me. Also some dodgy seamwork puckering the front. Perhaps due to the creasing the red dress just dosen't look as nice.
Comment by Rosie on May 03 23:13
Without a doubt Pippa is the clear winner on this one. She looked incredible!
Comment by Sophie on May 03 23:20
Pippa-1, Cameron-0 She's beautiful!!
Comment by Martin on May 03 23:28
Pippa. The dresses are similar but not the same. Prefer the "Pippa" version.
Comment by Meriel on May 03 23:50

PIPPA WAS AMAZING , DRESS NOT THE SAME , SIMILAR BUT A LOT CLASSIER M WHAT A STUNNER ,
Comment by CAROL IRENE HAMER on May 04 19:29
Pippa definitely, but think you're a bit wide of the mark to say she stole the show. I think her sister was pretty stunning too!
Comment by Jane Marti on May 04 22:24
Pippa's version is much more elegant and she looked gorgeous.
Comment by isabella on May 05 13:16
Pippa looks so much more elegant!!!
Comment by B on May 09 11:47
I think it's the white colour that steals the show. The simplicity just goes away with the red!
