Sex And The City Premiere: The Fashion, For The Most Part, Was Fierce

I am SO overwhelmed by the heavy hitters that showed up to the Sex And The City premiere in New York last night: Perry Farrell from Jane's Addiction, comedian Amy Sedaris, and Tony Award-winning Idina Menzel are a few of my favorites, so today's The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly is a tad biased. I will say that for the most part, everyone else looked great. Most of the celebs pulled out all the fabulous fashion stops on the premiere's pink carpet, including 75% of the SATC cast. (Can you guess which 75%?) The full Good, Bad, and Hot Tranny Messes, after the jump.

The Good
Kristin Davis shone like a fancy piece of Hanukkah gelt.
Anna Wintour looks like my mom, which is awesome for my mom but...well, I guess it's awesome for Anna too.
Lorraine Bracco, aka the former Dr. Melfi, has a PhD in cute shoes.
The only thing missing from Cynthia Nixon's ensemble is her cute, ginger girlfriend.
I think Lydia Hearst looks great in what is probably Heatherette, although she didn't need the hippie necklace.
Oh Idina! You look lovely. Mazel Tov.
Perry Farrell looks like a God, as usual, and his lady-friend looks like a window display at Agent Provocateur. (Yes, that's good. We want more of that).
Amy Sedaris is a genius, and her outfit has a perfectly spring-appropriate color palette.
Check and mate! You done good SJP.

The Bad
Eli Manning? Don't mind if I do! But who's the lady in the confusing-print dress?
Kim Catrall's dress looks like it's doused in dollar bills.
I love that Lil Kim was there, but I don't love that she's wearing what looks like second-hand H&M.
I don't care for this dress on Michelle Williams. It's too, "Call Tina Knowles and get me something from the House of Dereon to wear to the Sex In The City premiere!"

The Ugly
Even Miss Piggy was there! (Joke, it's Nicole Forrester, who probably doesn't even know who Miss Piggy is).
Tranny? It's Tranny. It's Solid Gold Ferocia Tranny. It's Studio 54 via Project Runway Tranny. Tranny. (Sorry, that joke will never get old for me. Thanks, Amy Poehler).

Some Stars Looked Good Enough To Eat At The Food Bank NY Event

Gwyneth Paltrow (pictured) was honored at the fifth annual Can-Do Awards dinner given by Food Bank For New York City. She told a reporter, "I grew up in this city, and I worked in soup kitchens throughout high school, so being back here is like a full circle. I'm just thrilled to be here and to help in any way I can." Yeah, yeah, but what about the outfits? Gwynnie looked divine in a graphic patterned wrap dress, and Helena Christensen — who was also honored — looked gorgeous in a sugary pink dress. But not every star was good enough to eat. Stanley Tucci, Lorraine Bracco, Christy Turlington, Petra Nemcova, Rachael Ray and more in the Good, the Bad and the Ugly, after the jump.

The Good:
Stanley Tucci needn't be so glum, he looks lovely! The pop of color in his shirt stripe is great.

Lorraine Bracco looks sleek and chic. Love her.

Christy Turlington's dress might be better with delicate shoes instead of boots, but she looks beautiful and comfortable.

Helena Christensen's dress is super sweet.

The Bad:
Petra Nemcova: Beautiful woman; ugly, cheap-looking dress.

Susie Essman plays Susie Greene, wife of Larry David's manager on HBO's Curb Your Enthusiasm. She's funny! But this ensemble isn't flattering or vibrant enough for her.

Crossing Jordan star Jill Hennessy's shapeless dress is almost saved by her cool necklace. Almost, but not quite.

Ed Burns seems uncomfortable, perhaps because his suit is ill-fitting?

The Ugly:
Gah, Rachael Ray. The hose! The shiny, absurd, freakin' hideous pantyhose. Terrible.

Mario Batali can rock his signature orange Crocs all he wants, but I don't have to like them.
