The polls on this bracket have now closed, but check back daily for new brackets!
FAN BINGBING vs. KATHARINE MCPHEE

Fan’s dress, purse, and shoes by Versace; Katharine’s dress by Peter Pilotto, purse by R&Y Augostini, shoes by Charlotte Olympia
Fan: Well, I don’t know about you, but I’m happy we’re starting off this battle in bright colors. Say, aren’t you that girl from Smash?
Katharine: Yes! And aren’t you like, the most famous superstar actress/fashion icon in China?
Fan: Oh, you flatter me, darling. Tell me, though – has Debra Messing finally stopped wearing those hideous scarfs? I have to admit, I kind of lost interest in the show after it jumped the shark with that Bollywood number.
Katharine: Well, I can hardly blame you for that. And I think we can all agree those scarves were an affront to fashion.

Fan’s gown by Valentino, purse by Salvatore Ferragamo; Katharine’s dress by Dolce & Gabbana, shoes by Charlotte Olympia
Fan: Agreed. And I must say, for an amateur, your attempt at red carpet florals is quite nice.
Katharine: Amateur? How dare you. I’ve watched Anjelica Huston throw drinks in people’s faces literally thousands of times, on and off screen. If that doesn’t make me a pro, nothing does.
Fan: That’s an excellent point. And I’ll admit, you’re more than capable of competing with me in the sparkly low-cut Elie Saab gown department.
Katharine: To be fair, it’s hard to look bad in gowns as beautiful as these.

Fan’s gown by Elie Saab, purse by Roger Vivier; Katharine’s gown by Theyskens’ Theory, purse by Oroton
Fan: Too true, Katharine. Unless you accessorize with one of Debra’s scarves.
Katharine: But of course. Those scarves were the biggest hot disaster on that show, save for Ellis.
LILY COLLINS vs. ISABELLE FUHRMAN

Lily’s dress by Balmain, shoes by Casadei; Isabelle’s top and shorts by Jason Wu, purse by Kotur, shoes by Casadei
Lily: I must say, I’m a little intimidated to be battling with a knife-throwing Hunger Games tribute, even if you are like seven years younger than me.
Isabelle: I take that as a compliment! Of course, I try not to throw knives on the red carpet, but sometimes accidents happen, you know?

Lily’s dress and shoes by Alexander McQueen; Isabelle’s dress by Prabal Gurung for Target, shoes by Versus
Lily: Um, I guess? I mean, I was in that Snow White movie, so, I didn’t really get to do a lot of bloody murdering on set.
Isabelle: Really? I sure would’ve stabbed something if I had to work with Kristen Stewart.
Lily: Well, that’s for sure. But luckily, I was in the other Snow White movie that came out this year. Don’t worry – you’re a porcelain-skinned brunette. You’ll get your own Snow White movie in five years too.
Isabelle: From your lips to Harvey Weinstein’s ears, honey.
Lily: Actually, come to think of it, we could play sisters in something! We have similar coloring and beautiful eyebrows and fabulous style, so why not?
Isabelle: Wow, that’s actually a great idea! And to think, I had a knife hidden in my purse this whole time just in case things didn’t go well!
Lily: So, are you like, method acting, or just batshit insane?
Isabelle: Oh, I’m just fucking with you, Snow White. Relax.
AMY ADAMS vs. FREIDA PINTO

Amy’s gown by Roksanda Ilincic, purse by Fred Leighton, shoes by Casadei; Freida’s suit and shoes by Gucci, purse by Fendi
Amy: Howdy, Freida! I hope you’re ready for a battle, because I might be doe-eyed and ginger-haired, but I’m here to fight.
Freida: Oh, no, not me. I plan on beating you without lifting so much as a finger, you see.
Amy: Oh, that’s how you want to play it? And you’re stealing my idea of wearing a metallic printed evening gown to battle, too?
Freida: Like you could possibly even dream of pulling off a bare midriff like this. Bitch, please.
Amy: Oh, yeah? This slit is so high I had to get my vagina removed in order to wear it. BEAT THAT.
Freida: … well, that just seems ridiculous.
Amy: We all make sacrifices for fashion, my dear. But I must say, if I had to wear a different one-shouldered ruched-bodice metallic-accented gown than the one I’m already wearing, yours would be my pick.
Freida: Mine too.

Amy’s gown by Oscar de la Renta; Freida’s gown by Atelier Versace, purse and shoes by Salvatore Ferragamo
Amy: Well, if you’re going to be such a brat about it, fine. See if you can defeat my Lady-Mary-goes-to-Hollywood gown, Freida.
Freida: In my futuristic couture, I’m sure it’ll be no problem.
HAILEE STEINFELD vs. JADA PINKETT SMITH
Hailee: Oh my gosh, hi, Jada! Love your dress. And your shoes. And like, your whole entire adorable family.
Jada: Well thanks, you little cutie! I must say, those shorts are mighty fabulous.
Hailee: Oh, stop it! I wasn’t sure about them, but my stylist kept saying, “You’re only sixteen once, bitch!” so I figured I’d wear them just to shut him up.
Jada: Don’t believe it for a minute, Hailee. Follow my lead, and you’ll never look a day over 25. You’ve got a least another three years of being sixteen ahead of you.

Hailee’s dress by Erin by Erin Fetherston, purse by Edie Parker; Jada’s dress by Lanvin, shoes by Nicholas Kirkwood
Hailee: I don’t really understand how that works, but thanks, I guess!
Jada: You’ll get it after your first round of Botox, sweetie.
Hailee: Oh, okay, it’s like an old lady reference and that’s why I don’t get it?
Jada: Watch your mouth, kid.
Hailee: Hey, this is a BATTLE, lady, and I’ll sass if I want to.
Jada: Sass away, but I’M the fabbest of them all.

I can see Fan Bingbing taking the gold this year…just sayin 😉 That first yellow dress actually got a greedy gasp out of me. I seriously want that in my closet NOW.
Girl, you obviously put Fan Bingbing in this SAD ASS Bracket so she could climb to the top 4!! aint none of these other chicks going anywhere…
LIES! I actually rank them from 1-64, in order of who had the largest number of awesome looks, and split them up into four brackets, and do #1 vs. #16, etc., just like a real bracket. So I don’t even decide which person gets matched up against which person – I let math do it!
