White was the new black this past year, but it was much more challenging for starlets and their stylists. Not everyone can be a size 2 like Jennifer Love-Hewitt, but even big-boned girls can pull it off with the right style and cut. After the jump see two celebrities who chose to ring in the new year in white: one looked tight, one more closely resembled a tourniquet.
Exhibit # 1 this week is the good news, for those who prefer to binge before they purge. Jennifer Hudson looks like she finally ditched Andre Leon Talley, because for once she doesn't look ridiculous. Although breathtakingly tight, her outfit actually fits for a change, and the longer length is more complimentary to her full figure.

Exhibit # 2 for those who can't stand to put it off any longer is Mariah Carey, who has taken it upon herself to wage a one-woman campaign against the space age durability of Spanxx. She couldn't fit one of those big legs in that dress without serious corseting and constriction. It probably takes those Jack Russells of hers at least three hours to chew her out of that casing, and at least another two hours of deep-tissue massage before she can feel her feet again.
What will 2008 bring for good news, bad news? Only time will tell. Will Mariah learn to dress like the aging chunky spinster that she is? Probably not. Maybe instead of paying someone to hold her drink and blot her lip she can hire someone to clean out her closet.
