When Kate Hudson showed up at the New York premiere of Rock the Kasbah, everyone was floored.

The 36-year-old movie actress showed off her enviable figure in an hourglass sequined dress. It was another successful look from the actress, much lauded by fashion critics.

The Almost Famous actress styled her dress with a box clutch and Brian Atwood’s “Tribeca” sandals. She kept her hair neatly combed back and chose smokey eyes to complete the sultry effect.

The look was so memorable that when Tamala Jones showed up wearing a very similar dress, we couldn’t help but make a comparison.

Tamala Jones’s height is 5ft 4in (162.6 cm), the same as an American woman’s average height, but she is shorter than Kate Hudson’s height of 5ft 6in (167.6 cm).

An American actress with a net worth of $4 million dollars, Tamala Reneé Jones began her career appearing in TV commercials and guest-starring roles in various television series in the early 90s.

Tracey Cherelle Jones’ younger sister played a starring role on the short-lived series, “Dangerous Minds,” and was a series regular on several shows. She has also appeared in various films. In 2009, she became well-known for her role as Lanie Parrish on the popular show, “Castle.”

To the 42nd annual People’s Choice Awards, the “Castle” actress also wore a striped sequined dress featuring a halter top embellished with more baubles.

But unlike Kate, her styling was a bit more over-the-top. Tamala wore chunky accessories that further accentuated the gaudiness of the dress.

We definitely like Kate’s more refined styling. Metallic dresses should be accompanied by simple accessories to avoid looking like a walking Christmas tree.
