Witch Wars! Michelle Williams v Mila Kunis
Playing magical sisters Glinda and Theodora in the much-anticipated Oz The Great And Powerful, we thought it only made sense to put these duelling witches, Mila and Michelle, to war on the style front, too. With Dorothy's coveted ruby slippers up for grabs... Let the style war commence! p.s. Extra points for you too, if you can spot all the references to Oz I've casually shoe-horned in.

Rex FeaturesIn The Navy
Pitting these two fashionable Hollywood heavyweights against each other was always going to be fun, and the opening gauntlet is a cracker. Enter Mila, doing the mannish tailoring thing like a pro in navy blue which she sexes up with a sheer blue T and some popping pink heels.
WennIn The Navy
Not entirely sure what she’s holding there but woah, man, this outfit rocks. We love the navy and black short suit complete with that Mia Farrow-esque career-defining pixie crop.
WINNER:Hands-down, Glinda. We mean, Michelle, obvi.
Rex FeaturesLady In Red
Hot off the success of her role in Black Swan, Mila Kunis’ star went stratospheric – over a rainbow, even – in 2011 and at the premiere of her rom-com Friends With Benefits, Mila erred into serious vamp territory in this curve-skimming ruby red Lanvin number.
Rex FeaturesTin (Wo)Man
Short, structured and sharp, Mila was flexing some red carpet style muscle early on. Although we could leave the patent lilac heels, everything from the metallic detailing on the dress to the hair is just dreamy.

Never failing to look as cute as a button though is Michelle Williams, who pulled some serious style punches during the press tour for her Oscar-nominated movie My Week With Marilyn. With a similar tulip structure to the skirt, this is fashion magic.
WINNER: Although closely-contested, we’re giving this one to Michelle. Soz, Mila.
Rex FeaturesHell For Leather
You know you’ve got a good outfit going on when people looking at it want to copy it to the letter and wear it themselves. Case in point; this show-stopper from Mila Kunis. So simple, yet oh-so-effective.
Rex FeaturesWhite Hot
A notoriously difficult colour to pull off at the best of times, Mila Kunis proves what we’ve all long-suspected, that celebrities may in fact be super human.
WennWhite Hot
We love the gold accessories with this detailed white mini, although it really is the beauty accents that make this for us – just check out those russet locks and blood-red nails.
WINNER: It only seems fair that the White Witch should take the crown in the White Hot round. Michelle wins!

Short, super-cute and sparkly; you can’t go wrong with a bit of Miu Miu - as Mila Kunisdiscovered at the fashion house’s show in Paris in 2012.
WennOMG LBD
There’s nothing quite like a bit of tailoring to inject some sex appeal into an outfit, and the tux lapels on this wrap dress are expertly accessorised with killer, punchy heels and a simple gold belt. Go, Mila.
Rex FeaturesOMG LBD
Proving that she’s no slouch on the LBD front either, Michelle Williams seriously cranked up the vamp-factor in this plunging-laced affair which she teamed with a pair of darn sexy shoes.
WINNER: This is a tough one; if only we had the courage to wear something so daring. And while we do commend Michelle’s edgy take on the classic LBD, we reckon that Mila just edges this one with simple-dimple styling.
WennGet Shorty
If only our white t-shirt, denim shorts and flip-flop outfits worked as well as this. Oh wait, you need a body like Mila Kunis, you say? Ah, shucks. Props to the actress on this hot summer in the city ensemble, nevertheless.
PacificCoastNews.comGet Shorty
Literally the look we try and achieve every summer to no avail. Everything about this is pitch-dressed-down-perfect from top to bottom.
WINNER: This is like picking your favourite child: impossible. So take an egalitarian point each here, ladies.
Goff PhotosFlower Power
Looking impossibly beautiful in denim florals (who’d have thought of that pairing?), Mila Kunis gives a master class in fun, flirty styling for the summer.
PA PhotosPastel Princess
Natalie Portman’s Black Swan co-star risked nearly stealing all of the Best Actress winner’s thunder at the 2011 Oscars when she turned up in this ethereal lavender (huh? When did this much-maligned hue go high fashion?) Elie Saab gown – which, we might add, still goes down as one of our favourite red carpet dresses.
PA PhotosPastel Princess
Christian Dior pastel pink perfection in Paris, no less. Catapulting this fashion moment into the realm of classic Hollywood in an instant, this is one of Michelle’s lesser-known red carpet moments, but no less fabulous.
WINNER: This one’s a victory for Mila. Why you ask? Because, because, because, because, becaaaaaause, because of the wonderful things she does (on the red carpet).
Rex FeaturesBlack Magic
And from one Dior gown to another; after facing a campaign for the French fashion house, Mila went on to showcase this nugget at the 2012 Golden Globes. Super-elegant and sassy? We just don’t know how she does it.
PA PhotosBlack Magic
A strapless sweetheart neckline with some pretty gold embellishment and a full-length and fabulous skirt sounds like red carpet catnip to us. Can this woman do any wrong? (Answer, no.)
[b]WINNER: Lions and tigers and bears (oh, my!) couldn’t detract from the clear winner, here; Michelle, again!

Vera Wang is responsible for a number of memorable award season gowns; case in point, this verdant beaut worn by Mila at the 2011 Golden Globes. Emerald City-tastic.
Rex FeaturesEmerald City V Yellow Brick Road
ERM. HELLO MICHELLE WILLIAMS. Finally shirking off her Dawson’s Creek image of old, M-Wills proved she was a Hollywood big hitter in 2006 when she turned up to the Oscars in, this, another stunning Vera Wang creation. Probably one of our all-time favourite gowns worn by anyone, like, ever – Michelle turned up with beau and co-star Heath Ledger on her arm as the two were nominated in the Best Actor and Best Supporting Actress categories for their top-notch performances in Brokeback Mountain.
WINNER: Michelle Williams practically re-wrote the red-carpet-dressing rule book with this saffron sensation – not just an epic fashion moment, but an all-round red carpet highlight.
Rex FeaturesAnd the coveted ruby slippers go to...
As Dorothy said, there’s no place like home and particularly so, if you’ve made your home on the red carpet, à la Michelle Williams. Proving good will always win out, Glinda The Good Witch beats out Theodora The Wicked Witch Of The West, once and for all. ♫Ding, dong the witch is dead*♫
*Disclaimer: We really like Mila Kunis and don’t think she’s a witch.
