KIKI WELCOMES YOU

Posted Aug 07 2009 @ 11:46 AM

Here's something we only see once in a blue moon: Kirsten Dunst looking lovely in Miu Miu at the 5th Annual HollyShorts Film Festival Celebration soiree on August 6 in Los Angeles. Held at the DGA Theatre, Kiki makes her directorial debut with Demi Moore on the red carpet. Both ladies had their films shot by cinematographer Darren Lew and made the cut to have their work shown on opening night. Who says girls can't make it as directors? Kirsten worked the red carpet in a gorgeous Miu Miu strapless dress (you can buy the dress for $1,180, but you can look just as stunning at a fraction of the cost in frocks like Lotta Stensson's Shirred Tube Dress in Peacock, Rebecca Taylor's Strapless Dress in Cosair Navy or the Summer Cocktail Dress in Midnight). Love the sweetheart neckline and murky cobalt shade with her cleaned up blonde tresses. Just wish she'd picked more exciting footwear! The final touch: a dainty charm necklace (like Maya Brenner's The Everything Necklace in Gold), smoky eyes and a tinted pout. Très chic, no? I mean, even her hair looks great – this is definitely the first time her bleached tresses have looked healthy in at least a year! Kiki's 13-minute short Welcome actually debuted last summer at the Palm Springs International Film Festival, where I'm assuming it did well enough to be featured in the festival this summer. The HollyShorts festival is running this week in Hollywood until August 12. Check out the film schedule online and browse other amateur and student filmmakers' screenings. Will any of you be in attendance?
