Fashion Faceoff: The Style Evolution of Kate Winslet Vs. Leonardo DiCaprio

Titanic hits theaters tomorrow for the first time in about fifteen years–though this time the drama, action and the infamous iceberg will be bigger thanks to 3-D technology. But that’s not the only thing that’s grown–the film’s stars, Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio’s fame has also sky-rocketed since the movie first hit theaters. And according to Winslet, Leo has, um, grown in other ways as well. The English actress said of the film, “We do look very different, we’re older.
