Fug the Cover: Rooney Mara
Who had Mara in the 2013 Vogue cover pool? Everyone, check your ballots! (Next year, I’m going to figure out how to make handicapping Vogue covers a contest; it looks like, so far, Fug National Emma is the only one who called Rooney.)
Leaving aside the fact that she is wearing a fishing net — it’s Vogue, and sometimes nets are worn! Even I realize that these are things that happen — can we just talk about how apparently the Powers That Be had a whole conversation about how consumption is totally hot for spring? Everyone, throw out your smoky eye palate and get out your feverish one!

“Damn it, Hathaway. I will not give up my crown of Hollywood’s premier avant garde architectural gown-wearer without a fight. You wanna go there? YOU HAVE TO COME THROUGH ME FIRST. And I’m just getting started. GAME ON, SISTER.”

On one hand, this is like the Platonic Ideal of what Rooney Mara would wear to the Oscars: colorless, architectural, a little weird, and best suited for someone with minimal cleav.

There is something unusual and pretty about the main dress, but the torso awning seems so stiff and overly artsy on her, like it’s yelling so hard in the name of making a statement that it’s not paying attention to what the statement actually is. The spacey remove of the wearer doesn’t sell it. I’m not saying she has to be Little Miss Sunshine if she isn’t, but a hint of a smile would be nifty. Maybe she hates that she made this movie, which I keep calling Drugs Are Bad, Mmmkay, but her career won’t be dead by its hand. So even if her shoulders look like a flower arrangement being laid atop someone’s coffin, she shouldn’t mourn like she’s at an ACTUAL funeral.
Her sister wasn’t super cheerful either, and went the opposite end of the color spectrum:
