Jessica Biel in white lace Elie Saab in NYC: Davids Bridal doily fug?

I just felt an unfamiliar pang of pity for Jessica Biel as I was going through these photos. Jessica is in New York now, promoting Total Recall… all by herself. Last night was the NYC premiere, and Jessica was the only headlining star to show up. No Colin Farrell, no Kate Beckinsale, not even John Cho. Just poor Jessica in her sad white, lace dress. She looks like Miss Havisham. This Elie Saab just screams “bridal!” to me… and it’s a sad look. Check out the original runway look with sleeves – wouldn’t that have looked much better on Jessica? It still would have been bridal, but at least it would have looked designer bridal and not David’s Bridal. That doily wrap isn’t helping either. She was aiming for “breezy, summery” and she ended up looking like she was the jilted, forgotten bride at a budget beach wedding.

Jessica is still sticking with her story that she and Justin haven’t even set a date for their wedding, by the way. There were lots of rumors that it would be this summer, very soon, like mid to late August. And the tabloids are keeping the hope alive that it will happen soon, because if not, they might run out of these “Sad Jessica Biel” stories:

Before Jessica Biel becomes Mrs. Justin Timberlake, she’s hitting some snags in planning her bachelorette party. Namely, that she doesn’t have anyone to invite.

“Jessica doesn’t have a lot of girlfriends,” says an insider. “Her plan right now is to fly to Colorado and meet up with a group of her hometown friends.”

Meanwhile, her hubby-to-be is planning a bachelor party that a source reveals is “going to make The Hangover look like Driving Miss Daisy.”

Jessica doesn’t have a lot of girlfriends? On one side, I think that claim is BS – she’s friends with Jennifer Garner, and Jessica does charity work with a lot of women from Revlon, plus some other charitable organizations she’s involved with. On the other side… I could totally see how Jessica would end up alienating long-term girlfriends because A) Justin tried to sleep with them, B) Justin actually slept with them, C) Jessica thinks that Justin might sleep with them or D) Jessica talks about Justin too much and her girlfriends are tired of the same neverending conversation.

I’m also including a photo of Jessica in brown and black Giambattista Valli outside The Daily Show yesterday. I’m not a huge fan, but I like it better than the Elie Saab doily.
