Jessica Simpson in a Figure-Hugging Dress
March 11, 2010 in Jessica Simpson by Versus
Jessica Simpson was all smiles at The Late Show With David Letterman, where she appeared to promote her upcoming television show “The Price of Beauty” in New York City.
How do you like this pink & black print dress on Jessica’s non-Hollywood-skinny figure?
And on a non-weight note, how do you find Jessica’s slightly darker hair color?
Much more if you turn the page!
I love it! She looks like a classy lady from the 50`s.
This is the weight that makes her happy and she looks very nice.
I’m sorry, but why is she giving in to being fat? She’s still young! She could drop a few in a healthy way and be much happier and comfortable in her body. She looks like a chubby girl and it’s so unnecessary!
I so agree with you!! It’s like she has given up on herself and embraced a diet of junk food and fried cheesy stuff and no exercise. I really really want her to wake up and get a grip. I doubt she can look at herself in the mirror and be happy looking like she aged 10 years and 2 years. Not good.
I meant 10 years IN 2 years!
you to need glasses or you have mental problems if you think shes fat stop critising others and look at your selves your probably hating others because you hate your selves get a life for gods sack do sumthing constructive with ure time than hating on others its not very nice.
woah, chill!!
no i wont chill i think you need to or have respect for others so what if you dont like her figure theres no need to make nasty pathetic comments about her get a life i was told if you dont have anything nice to say about some one dont say anything at all.
Well then laura, practice what you preach, because you’re doing the same to these people as they’re doing to Jessica.
no i am not im pointing out that shes not fat and that she is a happy healthy young woman and there is no need to make nasty comments about peoples weight celeb or other people that put other people down and judge others are manking comments about things they dont like about them selves.
I agree with you Laura, she is not fat ! She looks healthy and sexy to me even though I don’t like her belt !
thank you, it doesnt matter what size you are as long as you are healthy and happy coming from some one who was anerxic for 6 yrs and went down to 5 half stone i think people shouldnt judge other peoples figures they should concerntrate on themselfves and making them selves happy
Agreed, practice what you preach.
And besides, I didn’t even call her fat! Not that I couldn’t, this is a diet and weight gossip site after all. Why are you here then? Freedom of speech!
I was not calling her fat like I said, but simply pointing out that your lifestyle choices do reflect in your appearance. I see that in myself, whenever I start eating more junk I might not get fat, but I notice a change in my skin and muscle tone.
Celebrities are human, and believe it or not, you are what you eat. At a young age your body might be more forgiving of bad eating habits, but when you’re nearing 30, you really can tell who’s eating right and who isn’t.
Yes, you might say Jessica wasn’t meant to be skinny and shouldn’t be starving herself, but that’s not even my point! She can reverse the aging process by eating the right things! Because right now she looks aged beyond her years.
That’s what I meant, sue me.
Yes, you are being rude. You’re putting people down (who you don’t know), AND judging them…so yes, actually, Casey’s right, practice what you preach.
how am i being rude which bits that i said are beign rude
Speaking as someone who has dealt with an eating disorder, both losing too much weight and then getting on the chubbier side than I would like (I’m now healthy and in very good shape), I know what it’s like to be heavier for your size and unhappy about it, yet trying to justify it and accept that you will probably look like that for the rest of your life, but it’s just not true! She doesn’t have to give in to being heavy for her frame. She should be happy in her skin, but that doesn’t mean she can’t work out and eat healthier. We know she hasn’t always looked like this, but she was NEVER too skinny. I’m just saying, she can do better and it wouldn’t be that hard for her to drop the weight. It’s probably emotional eating more than anything.
She’s not heavy for her frame. You really didn’t need to point out you have an eating disorder, it’s obvious from your comments.
while i do agree with your point here, I was in controversey with an aquaintance of mine and they were amazed that i would agree with someone who wanted people to step outside the box for gods sack?
.. Well. In actual fact, this is in between. Not at all fat but not thin either. She is below the average size in the US. It’s strange how you’d say that she specifically eats fried and cheesy foods and doesn’t exercise. I will assume that you know little about fitness and weight loss. Don’t be so self-righteous.
I think she really looks quite pretty, I just love her smile!
I LOVE THE DRESS! It suits her very well. Does anybody of you know the designer?
Lovely!! She looks fantastic! She can have her cake and eat it too
which by the looks of her…she definitely does
lol
The hair color is beautiful on her, and I like the make up and dress, but do wish it were a couple inches shorter. I think it would be more flattering if it hit just below the knee. Its a good dress style for her though, flatters her curves.
totally agree! her face looks so beautiful, her hair absolutely looks perfect (color and style). she looks softer than usual, in a good way. when her hair is too blonde, she is too tan, and her make up is too heavy, even though she is extremely beautiful, it can play off her in the worst way and make her strong features look a bit harsh.
the dress gives her a nice shape…but i also think it would look so much better if it stopped just under the knee. she’s a small girl and i think the fabric overwhelms her and might add weight to her bottom half at that length. plus she has unbelievable legs and should show them off! her arms also look nice and toned.
Such a huge change from a few years ago. To me, the weight does not suit her. For some women weight gain does, but for her, it doesn’t. She looked better thinner. I wouldn’t call her fat, that’s extreme, but she is rather chubby/homely now. I do feel like she’s letting herself go.
I think her body time (kinda chubby arms) is unfortunate. SHe´s not fat but she could use some toning
Oh and I don’t like the dress so much, the print is weird, but I love her coat. Simple yet lots of detail.
I’ll agree with a part. I preferred her a wee bit slimmer. Not Daisy Dukes days really, but a little slimmer than this. But that’s just my preference.
See, I feel like Jessica is like one of the hot girls from high school that you were so jealous of, and you see them a few years later and realize there isn’t really anything to be jealous about because they have let themselves go. Jessica’s prime days were definitely her “Newlyweds”/”Dukes of Hazzard” days…I do not think that she is fat, but with some motivation she could be so hot again! On the plus side, her shoes on her shoe line are always super cute though!
hm.. i thought she lost weight.. but now I see that she is on the same weight like before..
and i can see that she is happy.. she is happy because now her life is esier(she can eat more), and she is happy with her weight, but if she was skinnier she would be much happier..
i can understand her, and if she gets atention, love, respect with this body then she can live like this.. but within 10 lb she would have more..
this is her choice
How do you know she’s happy? Because she’s smiling for the cameras? How do you know she’s not unhappy and eating her feelings?
I’m sorry guys, but do you really think she was better off starving herself to get into the Dasy dukes? She looks pretty and healthy here, and you’ve got no idea about what she’s eating. Not everyone is naturally skinny and it just might be that Jess isn’t either, it’s just that she’d been eating poorly and exercising non-stop to be up to the “standards” of Hollywood
How do you know she was starving herself, or are you just assuming it? If it’s based simply on assumptions, then the other argument (that she used to follow a healthy diet and exercized regularly and now she isn’t), is equally valid. The truth is, nobody knows either way, but people have a bias to think the way that you do.
All I will say is that she has stated that in times of stress, she looks to food for comfort, and her marriage has recently ended. Take that as you wish.
But I agree with you, she doesn’t look unhealthy here, and it’s not fair to assume so. The body can cope with a variety of weights…it’s not like you automatically stop being healthy just because you gained a few or lost a few. And it’s unfair for anyone to assume such a thing when they are not her doctors. The only thing they could say is she doesn’t look as good.
Jessica has stated in numerous interviews that trying to maintain that Daisy Dukes weight was unhealthy for her. It is clearly not her natural body type! I think it is silly for any of you to assume that she is now just sitting around not exercising and eating junk food all day. I see paparazzi photos of her all the time leaving the gym so obviously none of that is accurate. I do think she looked more beautiful a few years ago but for some reason I do not think it is the weight. Something changed with her face and I don’t find her as beautiful as I once did. I do not think she is fat AT ALL nor do I think she feels bad about herself at this weight. That of course is only my opinion but to me her high self esteem seems genuine.
she wasn’t married recently! she was married years ago and divorced YEARS ago. she broke up with tony romo fairly recently. but even that was probably at LEAST half a year ago and they were not married. not even engaged!
I absolutely agree. She looks marilyn monroe old school gorgeous. Great proportions, beautiful hair and gorgeous face, If you have a problem with her looks you must have a problem with yourself, It may not be your “definition” of beauty and i respect that but you can not deny that this healthy, happy, successful woman is BEAUTIFUL! thank you jessica!!
I don’t think the dress is very flattering.. the scoop neck and the length. But I really do like her hair color, it looks naturally pretty.
She is not fat.
Out off shape YES! She needs to tone up a bit.
She is fat. Yes she still is beautiful, but she is fat. And no way is she a size 4-6(US) as she claims. Also her upper body looks like a linebacker to me!
i agree with you maybe she is a size 8/10 that second photo she looks huge.
i watched her on letterman last night and i was disappointed. she came off as really annoying and desperate in my opinion. I like the whole look she was going for but i don’t think it worked on camera. the dress was really unflattering
1. I don’t think that dress is the right length for her, it should be shorter.
2. There is something really weird going on with that last picture… I’m not sure what, but something about her position is just odd.
i think there are some women that can be a little bit chubby and they look gorgeous, just like her…it depends which kind of body, for example Angelina Jolie, that has a not good shape if she gain a lot of weight she will look terrible because she doesn`t have waist good legs etc…in the case of this kind of body like Jessica Simpson she can have more pounds and she still looks in good shape, smaller waist etc..
Jessica looks great…
She looks terrible, as usual.
I have always thought she is beautiful and I love her hair color it reminds me of her younger years when she first started her career. I have nothing good to say about her body. She looksold and matronly and she must really love high calorie foods because she doesn’t have to look this way and feel sorry for her because she can not be happy at this weight.She could lose 15 pounds and look awesome.
That dress is not flattering.Jessica has let herself go.Its not about a stupid diet its about life style change.I think you can eat what you want in moderation.Ithink she shouls lose a couple of dress sizes.People always feel better when they are thinner.
I have no personal problem with her weight. I just question her words about her size on Oprah. Size 4 to 6? She doesn’t look like she’d be a 4 to 6 but bigger. But hey, I haven’t felt up her waist and booty, so I could be wrong about how they fit into clothes.
maybe a size 12 or 14 she looks pretty thick
Is that UK sizes, cos she ain’t that big in US sizes!
I could definitely believe her being a 4 to 6 – I’m a 6, she’s a little bit shorter than I am, and she looks a little bit slimmer than me.
Yes, it’s an unflattering dress (remember the mom jeans? maybe she should get a new stylist??), but she is in no way fat. People who criticize celebrities who aren’t so skinny you can count their ribs are a large part of the reason for the devastatingly low self-esteem many young girls grow up with.
Also, for the record, exercising and eating well does not automatically equal a size 0.
I agree completely. I’m also a 6 and I’m a teeny bit shorter and my hips come off about as wide as hers. Either way though, I’m a 6 all day long and a 4 when I’m lucky. In my opinion, when you’re a certain size, you can relate to celebrities that are the same or similar size because you know what your size looks like. I also agree, she’s not fat, and it’s tragic when people perceive her that way.
Dear Jessica, please fire your current wardrobe assistants
If Jessica did nothing but ate cheesy fried rubbish and didn’t exercise ever since she finished filming dukes of hazard, she’d be 200lb easily
She is bigger than she has been but I still think she’s an incredibly gorgeous woman.
I’m not sure whether I prefer her slightly slimmer or just whether its that the high neckline and cap sleeves do very little to flatter her big bust.
I think that jessica always looks “nice” but she doesn’t always chose the most flattering styles for her shape
(then again, neither do i!)
She kinda looks a little bit porky in that dress. Its an adorable dress but I would like to see jessica work out more often. I want her to be healthy and happy cause she really is a sweet girl – even tho kind of lame – still, she needs to jump on the tredmill and burn some cals.
Some of you are really pathetic.
agreed
She has clearly gained weight. It’s easy to do. She’s probably in a healthy weight range for her height. However, she needs a new stylist. Someone who knows how to flatter her body type. The dress in this picture is too long for her. It needs to be over the knee. Also she needs to wear more v-necks as this would give the illusion that she’s taller. Also it looks like she carries her weight in her arms, chest and face. So capped sleeves are just not flattering on her. She also needed a wider band on the dress to make it look like she has more of a waist.
A lot of people seem to know Jessica personally as they really now she does nothing but eat junk all day. Really,can you hear yourselves? If she was overweight, yes, i could understand these comments. But their sole basis is the fact she’s not a 20 yr old blonde bimbo anymore, but rather looks like a full grown woman who happens not to be the same size anymore. That’s it. You don’t like her? Fine. I never did. But who the heck are you to say things such as oh my she should really stop eating all that junk? How can you know that?
I agree! It makes me so frustrated when people say things like that when they have NO IDEA. Dare I say it? It is just stupid.
And what comes to Jessica, I think she looks really pretty and her I like her dress. I think it suits her perfectly. It makes me so sad people say she is fat. She is normal, looks happy and healthy.
what I really love about these pictures is that jessica shows she can be strong and healthy and that that has nothing to do with being a size 0. if you look at her arms, yes they are not skinny, but they have tone and muscle to them. The bottom line is the girl i not a model. It is not her job to be stick thin. I am glad that she can show us what a healthy, beautiful, real woman can look like. And really, ask your boyfriends, because I dont know how many men will EVER complain about her figure! she is a mans dream. So bash her as much as you wan but she seems happy and thats what is important.
Agreed about the guy part. every time she’s on tv or a poster I here the compliments about her. They love her!!!
I’d like to believe the stuff in your post because it sounsd nice, but it’s just bs.
1) Her arms don’t have tone to them. They have muscle, sure, but so does every arm ever. There is no tone there.
2) On the contrary, men do complain about her new figure, sadly. If you go on more men friendly websites like Moe Jackson, most men think she has let herself go. And that’s a nice version of what is being said.
3) She’s not a model so you’re right, she shouldn’t be stick thin. And she never was. However, she’s a celebrity who has built her popularity over having a good body, so people do expect her to have a good body. That doesn’t mean a size 0, but here she looks average, and while that’s fine if she was an average person, for a celebrity, people expect more.
4) Just like people don’t know whether she is unhealthy or stuffing her face with junk food, you don’t know if she’s healthy. She says she comfort eats. She just had a divorce. Statements about health either way are nothing but assumptions.
I don’t like the dress but I like the jacket, A LOT! As far as her figure goes, this is probably closer to her natural shape than her Daisy Duke days. She has repeatedly said that she over exercised and ate no carbohydrates during the filming of Duke’s of Hazard. Her current weight is not considered attractive by Hollywood standards and I think she would look her best if she lost maybe 5 lbs. I don’t think she will ever get back to her lowest weight because it’s not really her body type and that is okay.
she looks fat cus she doesnt have a defined waist, pluss she got one flat ass…..urghh
but shes not fat,,,,
just a “curvy” apple?
There was a good reason that women wearing wiggle dresses in the 1950s (and us vintage girls today) wore shapewear underneath. Spanx just don’t cut it when you’re trying to go for that “va va voom” figure. Unless you’re born with it, you definitely need something underneath a dress like this to put everything in the right place.
I think she’s gorgeous but needs better suited underwear if she’s going to try for a 1950s or early-1960s look. What Katie Did and Rago both do fabby retro underwear that looks glam (the former is regularly featured in fashion magazines over here in the UK and occasionally elsewhere in Europe).
she just looks puff… as if this shape was unnatural for her.. poor girl, she lost and gained soo much weight soo many times, that her body must be cray about it.. imho she screwed up her whole system..
god please haters !! stop !! she looks gorgeous. in the last pic.. she looks like a healthy barbie.
She looks like such an auntie. Auntie Jessica.
she has no neck
as someone who is about jessica’s height and size (and that is a size 6 in womens, size 10 in juniors), i do consider myself fat. my diet is pretty darn healthy; i am vegan and i also eat gluten-free and sugar-free. i eat vegetables, mostly. however, due to starving myself all throughout high school, i now have a crap metabolism and even though i go walking for about and hour every day, i will never get fit unless i work out constantly at the gym, which i can’t bring myself to do. i wouldn’t be surprised if this was the same boat jessica was in. sucks!!!
I think Jess looked better during her Dukes of Hazard days. We’re alike because when we put weight on, you can tell our faces, even if it’s just 5 lbs. How much do y’all think she weighs right now?
omg. please, she’s not like pin ups!
i don’t like her body at all… she’s too big from the waist off!
I feel like we are just all used to seeing her in her daisy duke days and its just a shock to see her like this. I also think for her height she may be at a healthy weight but in hollywood its usually about being thin on screen rather than healthy.
Did you watch the david letterman show? Go on youtube and watch it. She said that after the whole mom-jeans photo came out instead of becoming anorexic she just decided to eat more. that isn’t healthy either. You really can’t judge someone’s health by simply how they look on the outside. But there was a time (not her super skinny), where you could see some real muscles on her arms and legs. that showed she was working out at least, it’s hard to tell now but if she doesn’t exericse she will soon regret it, after 30 it’s hard to keep thin and eat all the time for most women. on letterman she was talking about enjoying all her fried foods. Again, not healthy!
“she has no neck”… “her legs are too short”… “i dislike her apple shape”… – such ignorance… as if these are things she can control! You can’t fight genetics! Yes, we can all work out, shape up, and improve our bodies but there are certain things we just can’t do a damn thing about. People go their entire lives hating themselves because of “flaws” that they can’t do anything about and it’s people like all of YOU who make them feel that way. You have to embrace the best of you and forget the rest. I think she looks beautiful… I’d rather look at her then some gaunt, starving supermodel.
Her hair is really pretty.
I bet all of you who say she is fat and she really needs to lose weight, U ARE REAL FAT!! Who says u have to be skinny like Lindsay (who looks like a skeleton)??? We are all normal people; if she is happy with herself, why bother? I admire her because she’s not afraid to speak her mind!
I like curvy ladies;they’re much more attractive to me. It feels so good to cuddle them but with skinny ladies, nothing to feel only bones and skins. All of you argue with this issues regarding celebs. Who cares! they’re still rich and famous and you’re pissed and unknown….
