Um, how many photos like this will it take before she realizes even thin women need to wear underwear? A slip or camisole would have been useful. Even dark fabrics can be transparent...
Otherwise, I thought the dress was very nice and a good color for her.

Well, whipcracker, youīre so right. First, when I realized that she didnīt wear a bra, I was looking for my glasses...I wonder what they might think looking at those pics??? Well, not that a want to complain, really nice little t..., but was that the event to show them???

Maybe that's how she enticed Harrison to go with her! (Just joking).....but I don't think that was appropriate no matter what her reasons were. ( I remember seeing that two- piece white outfit she wore to one of the "K 19" premieres...that was see through on the bottom...you could see her derrierre through the thin fabric of the skirt, in broad daylight .) Somehow, I want to give her the benefit of the doubt here- maybe she really didn't realize that under the strong lights for the photographs, that would be the case. At home, in regular household lighting, that may not have been so obvious to her. The dress is nice...but she REALLY did need a camisole!
I have to agree all the way about her not wearing a bra and in a see-through dress is tacky...especially considering the event she wore this for!!
And no, my opinion has nothing to do with whether one likes Calista or not....

Saw on Entertainment Tonight that this dress was an "Ungaro"- the designer that put on the fashion show. I had not even thought of the reason for the event...makes her faux-pas even worse, I agree!

No doubt, theyīll have, mis.deb, but do they have to show it
everywhere they go? Iīm getting jealused:D
The dress is wonderful and she lookes great in it, but the people from Ungaro had to take care about such things (considering
the charity aspect of that evening) IMO.
Anyway, first thing I thought about was that line from 6d7n, when he told Anne Heche, that her a.. was too narrow and
her t... were too small:D
Looks like I'm the only one who believes Calista wore the Ungaro gown exactly as Emanuel created it to be worn. No snaffu or faux pas!! Just a lot of guts!! And, I might add, she looks incredible!!!
BeeJones
04-13-2003, 15:43
Right, NWgal, she looks terrific.
She does look good, but as I posted on another thread -- Im now just realizing that it was an inappropriate move on her part. This is not good. I have heard that Harrison really likes intelligent women and Calista is supposed to be intelligent. By what standards?? I question her judgement on this one. I dont care who made that gown -- THINK PEOPLE!! Rape victims??? Is she serious?? She needs to save her Victoria Secrets for her and Harry's little secrets and keep it covered up.

We really donīt know what happened there. I guess she was wearing that Ungaro dress because that was an Ungaro show and she was asked to do so. But for that event she should have taken more care, so the Ungaro people should have done and even Harrison should have taken more care. He should have told her not to wear that dress or so, but I donīt think they wanted to insult anyone.
Whipcracker
04-15-2003, 16:46
Let's back up for a minute - there's something I'm not clear on.
Was Calista EXPECTED or SUPPOSED to wear an Ungaro design to an Ungaro charity event? (Was she paid or a volunteer or a celebrity model or in some other way a participant in the show?) We seem to have jumped to the conclusion that she was required in some way to wear what she did.
Or did she just pull it out of her closet thinking it would be a nice gesture in addition to writing a check and showing up?
I'm guessing it was the latter, because she came in with the other guests & was sitting in the audience, but I've been wrong before.
Whipcracker
I could be wrong, but I thought Access Hollywood said that she was the host of the event.

uh, look back at a premiere a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...seeing what im seeing...look at the eyes and the smile for a minute...look at the dress the other pretty lady is wearing in that old picture...note that harrison had a big time something going on with her as well...note that him and the other girl were 14 years age different, he and calista are 22 years different. that other girl was carrie fisher...
now how to upload that pic...hmm...

NOO WAY .....WHERE DID YOU GET THAT PHOTO. ARE HER BREAST REALLY SHOWING OR ARE YOU SOME SORT OF COMPUTER WHIZ. BADDDDD!!!
And...by the way...I do hold Calista responsible for that dress. Every little fading starting does the same thing (J-Lo, Little Kim). career fizzling -- show a little T & A and that should perk things up. Im not surprised she is an entertainer and HE is definetly a MAN.

harrison had a romantic daliance with carrie fisher as well. look at the facial resemblance for a second too.
Lord McLaird
04-16-2003, 08:57
Yes, they also have other similarities. No surprise there.
My point about Ungaro is that _he_ designs sheer-top dresses to be worn bra-less and then sponsors a rape victim charity fundraiser. Hmmm. But rape isn't supposed to be about what you wear...OK. So Calista should be able to wear one of his designs to his charity event without criticism. And Harrison shouldn't dictate to her what to wear.
Do I like sheer bra-less dresses? No. I think they reduce women to meat-on-the-hoof, no matter what the occasion. And I bet Calista wasn't the only one to wear one of these get-ups to this fund-raiser. I've always thought "haute" fashion designers had a disconnect with reality (this situation is evidence) and so do the women who wear it--at least for the length of time they have the dress on.
Whipcracker
04-16-2003, 11:34
Good point, Lord McLaird.
Can I just call you your Lordship? ;)
Whipcracker
Just a couple of points (no pun intended):
1. Carrie Fisher was about 21 years old in these pics. Calista is almost 40 and should know better.
2. Carrie wore that dress to a premiere (and I'm not at all sure this version hasn't been altered). Calista wore the Ungaro to a charity fundraiser for A RAPE TREATMENT CENTER!!!
Although showing your wares is certainly not a crime, especially in Hollywood, it does show poor taste particularly when the event is associated with a sensitive topic such as rape.
Although I agree women should be able to wear anything they like, I also feel that appropriate behaviour is important and that wearing those 'see through' fashions are just a poor bid for attention and in poor taste as well.
Sorry for the mini-rant.
JMO, 'nuff said.

I hope I don't disillusion anyone when I point out that the Fisher gown is NOT see-through. What you're seeing there are two bright highlights reflecting off of a shiny dark fabric which is covering (ahem) two areas slightly higher than their background. And the (cough) small dark spots are cast shadows from the (um) highest points of elevation.
Unless, of course, she applied white out to parts of herself - hey, the '70s were weird for everyone...
Speaking of weird: for a straight woman, I've been spending way too much time lately looking at photos of other women's busts... Could we get off the subject sometime soon???

Yep, one sheer dress, one shiny dress; both braless women. Honestly, it's funny, but being a 38DD, my first thought when I see any woman obviously braless is: Ouch!

To remember that there are pics from an event with another nice looking (and braless) lady in that galaxy far far away from here:D Even that smile on his face is the same after more than 25 years...Gee, heīs just a man, he canīt help it;)
Now letīs change the subject, the damage is already done.

One thing I want to say at the end: Here in Germany 60 years old actors fool around with 28 years old gals or even with younger ones, so why always hitting on that 22 years age difference? Calista is an all grown up woman, she only looks like a bambi...

"This is not good. I have heard that Harrison really likes intelligent women and Calista is supposed to be intelligent."
I don't want to pick a fight, and I know it's kind of late in the day - but regardless of the fact the dress is inaproppriate or not - what does your wardrobe have to do with your I.Q?
CMinor
Nothing to do with IQ. Everything to do with common (or uncommon, in this case) sense, sensitivity and good taste. All things one might assume (in this case erroneously) that an intelligent person might possess.
Good point - but isn't common sense relative? What I consider to be common sense you may think is an idiotic thing to do, and vice versa.

Hi all,
Calista and Harrison were ET glamour shot of the week (I think it was ET, maybe Access - well, it was one of the tabloid shows). The dress looked lovely. Titties did not show on video as much as in the photos. Lots of ladies were wearing sheer dresses and blouses (remember this is LA) and if not, their boobies were practically hanging out (ala Fran Drescher - sp?). Cleavage galore is the name of the game and it is no big deal in that environ. The fashion folk do not consider it a faux pas. I saw some of the models waltzing down the runway and as usual they were wearing very sexy, revealling clothing.
Some folks here are making such a fuss - well, I wouldn't and couldn't wear such clothes because I would die of shyness and couldn't pull it off. But then, if everyone was going about and that was practically the norm - maybe I wouldn't be so shy about it!!! Who knows!? She didn't kill anybody....
Now we can change the topic!!!;)
Regards,
aj

BRAVO, Ms.deb! That is what Calista is ALWAYS about...being the center of attention. (Quite frequently when the attention is supposed to be on someone or something else.) This was supposed to be a CHARITY event...not a spotlight for her. As far as that "Glamour Shot of the Week" bit - that very statement just OOZES self- promotion... I'd bet that her own PR people put that one out there!

I really hate to intrude. but Calista WAS the centre of attention of this event because she was the host of the event. As for whether her dress is inappropriate or not, well, this was a FASHION SHOW and she was the host, of course she had to be attractive. I don't think the dress is inappropriate for a fashion show (whether charity of not). After all, $120,000 was raised to benefit the rape center. I think Calista'dress was good and she accomplished her task very well to host the event.
Okay, I wasn't gonna throw in my two cents - but I will!
IF Calista seems to ALWAYS be the center of attention - it's not of HER doing - but that of the photographers. First of all, most of you talk like she runs around pulling on coatsleeves saying, "Hey, Mr. Photoguy - here I am - take my picture, PLEEEZE!" That is not, in fact, how it works. Aside from the usual paparazzi that roam Hollywood parties, etc, looking for candid shots of interest - charity benefits, honor awards dinners (such as the ones for Harry and the one for the rape center), movie/tv awards shows, red carpets, etc., have VERY CONTROLLED photo op sessions. They are confined to specific areas - and conducted either before or after the event (sometimes both) - where ALL the media is gathered. Certain celebrities are sought out and and asked to pose and most graciously consent. As a result, the photos you see of a particular celebrity at a particular event (whether charity or not) are those taken in a matter of between two to five minutes - by a multitude of different photographers - and they ALWAYS focus more on the ones they WANT to photograph - whom they consider to be of most interest to the public. And, like it or not, Calista has always been and IS considered by the media to be NEWS and NEWSWORTHY. Clearly, she doesn't inform the press when she's going shopping or to the park with her son so that she can be photographed without makeup buying a potroast or PICKING UP DOG POOP!!
Secondly, as to Calista's mode of dress at the Ungaro benefit. She hosted the affair and to honor the designer who offered his time and creations to the charity, she wore one of his designs - and beautifully so, I might add. That's all! There are absolutely no statistics that will bear out the fact that provacative dress has any correlation whatsoever to rape! A rapist isn't aroused or excited by the normal things that "turn on" other sexually active males, but rather by sounds, smells, locations, a person's voice, etc. A rapist's aberrant behavior is the result of childhood experiences. Most always, they're men who, since they were very young, were abused, humiliated or emasculated by their mothers or other important female figures in their life. What's most important to remember is that rape has nothing to do with lust, passion, desire, or EVEN SEX - it's a CRIME OF VIOLENCE perpetrated because of the need for POWER AND CONTROL.
'Nuff said on both subjects in my opinion.
Sierra112
04-20-2003, 13:22
NWgal- You are absolutely correct as to the reasons/ motives for rape. I still feel that her sheer dress was inappropriate for this event. As to her being the "center of attention" because she was the host- the EVENT should have been the center of attention, not it's host. It should not have been a promo for her, but to promote the cause for which it was designed. I feel that this case (and many others) are due to her PR people, not necessarily her. But she hired them to do a job...and they're doing it! (Not always tastefully .)
I'm more annoyed at all these Calista based member names....this is ridiculous and I want to remind these people that this IS a Harrison Ford fansite, not Calista's.....
Is this what these boards are going to become now? A gathering hole for Calista fans? If so, let me know now so I can dump this site and move on with things....
She is getting way too much attention on this forum.....more attention than Harrison. This is the not reason for this forum or this site and I'm fed up with it
nooooo......Eileen please dont do that....relax...breathe deeply...we luv you.....the site too.....please....forget them....they will go away.....dont be annoyed (well......try not to be annoyed).
Now please...everyone let's behave. And to all the Calista Flockhart fans...please dont think anyone on this site is a HATER. We luv Harrison, we like talking about him. Obviously there is a huge age gap communicating here.....with lots of various ideas...beliefs...Trust me...I dont think anyone dislikes Calista. If any of us on this site met the two of them, I am sure, almost positively sure, that we would all like the both of them.
Relax

well, sorry about the name Eileen but I am and will always be a Harrison Ford fan, sorry to offend! don't make me cry :( please!!!!!!
I'm not offended...just annoyed as hell at all this...
Listen, there are plenty of Harrison fans on this forum who do a great job at balancing things out by coming to her defense. There are two types on this forum regarding Calista. The ones who are not fans of hers and those who are.
The last thing this forum needs is people signing up using Calista's name with the sole purpose of defending her. As I said, there are plenty of Harrison fans on this forum who do this and disagreements are done very well on both sides.
CalistaFord
04-21-2003, 11:25
well, i am not necesarily defending her, I do think it was inappropriate for her to wear the dress if it was in fact see thru, however we are here to talk about Harrison and thats fine but on the other hand there are people here solely to say mean things about her and mean things about Harrison for dating her. We do not know either of these people personally so we have no right to judge them either way.

there are people here solely to say mean things about her and mean things about Harrison for dating her. Look, the last thing I want to do is start a fight, especially on this topic! ;). So I'm going to say one more thing and then I'll let it go, I promise.
CalistaFord, that is not a fair statement or observation. And I'm not trying to pick a fight with you or, heaven forbid, start a flame war, for the simple reason that people here have a long history of stating their opinions and disagreeing with each other in an intelligent way. And agreeing to disagree if necessary.
I'm not trying to pick on you, I'm just defending folks I've come to think of as friends, no matter what their opinions are.
I don't want you to feel jumped on - if you do I heartily apologize because that wasn't my intention. I just couldn't let what you said slide, is all.
