Cate Blanchett might have shone at the Cannes premiere of her new movie Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (mouthful!), but her star wasn’t shining so bright in the fashion stakes at the films’ Aussie debut.

Blanchett, who’s just about my favourite actress on the scene, usually gets it so right whenever she steps out in front of the cameras; however, last night’s bronze puff-ball was a little lack-lustre for me.

While her hair and make-up looked divine (as always), I was a little disappointed to see her fabulous post-baby body hidden beneath an unflattering metallic shirt dress.

At least she turned up to the premiere back home, though!

The Cannes premiere of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull attracted more than just the film’s stars.

Hollywood heavyweights Natalie Portman and Selma Hayak were just some of the celebrities who walked the red carpet for George Lucas’ latest cinematic masterpiece.
