We thought we'd seen the last of this year's celebrity obsession with coat dresses. Good lord, people. Wear a coat. Wear a dress. Just pick one, by all that is holy. You don't see people walking around in skirt pants, do you? Or sweaters that could also be rugs, do you? OK, maybe you do.

Then again, if you're gonna do a coat dress, Kirsten Dunst and Lucy Liu certainly know how to rock it right.

Kirsten attended the New York premiere of On the Road in a Spring 2013 look from Dior. Not sure we agree with the hair—if it's possible to agree with hair.

While over at the 2012 New York Women In Film And Television Muse Awards, the Elementary star reminded us of a couture Sherlock Holmes in a look by Dolce & Gabbana. We're not sure we'd wear both the killer knee-high Weitzman boots and the femme fatale elbow gloves—or silver earrings with gold hardware—but to each her own.
