Katie Holmes wore head-to-toe Tom Ford for the Hurricane Sandy Benefit Concert last night in Madison Square Garden, pairing her curve-hugging purple-velvet-paneled dress with “Padlock” Pumps (zoom in to see them). While we’re happy to see she’s out and about doing good for others, we can’t help but notice the actress has her hand discreetly poised to tug at the bottom of the dress. And since every woman has a funny story about a time velvet went wrong, might we recommend something for the static cling? Hairspray, perhaps?
