Guess the Met Attendee by Her Beautiful Accessories!
Last night's Costume Institute Gala was overflowing with sensational looks — did you rock your fashion vote? All the frocks were amazing but every stylista knows accessories are key to completing the whole ensemble. Footwear last night ranged from quirky platforms to sexy stilettos while clutches dazzled.
Model Mania at Met's Costume Institute Gala!
Models are always welcomed at Met's Costume Institute Gala, but since last night's exhibit was all about them, they felt way more at home. Current models like Hana Soukupova, Coco Rocha, and Isabeli Fontana mixed and mingled with classics like Stella Tennant, Alek Wek, and Maggie Rizer, as well as old-school Supers Amber Valletta, Kristen McMenamy, and Nadja Auermann (left). It was a site to be seen; one that melted my heart.
Costume Institute Gala Red Carpet Roundup!
The "Oscars of the Fashion World" did not disappoint tonight as the stars, models, fashionistas, socialites and designers ascended the red staircase at the Costume Institute Gala at the Met in New York City. The fashion was center stage as Marc Jacobs, Kate Moss and Justin Timberlake hosted the glamorous event. We caught the good, the bad and the over-the-top dramatic.
Vote Best Dressed at The Met's Costume Institute Gala
I wonder if Chanel Iman imagined one day she would be up against her model idol Iman. It's times like this you better believe my job can be challenging. Have you perused and voted on all of tonight's Costume Institute Gala red carpet fare?
The Met's Costume Institute Gala: Leighton Meester
Gossip Girl Leighton Meester bravely walked the red carpet wearing a psychedelic paisley print avant-garde confection by Louis Vuitton. The dress and matching tights are a little over the top for my liking, but props to Meester for trying new things. Satin Louis Vuitton ankle wrap pumps (Victoria Beckham wore a similar pair ), jeweled bangles, and cherry-red lips top her doll-like ensemble.
The Met's Costume Institute Gala: Eva Longoria
Eva Longoria and her hubby Tony walked the red carpet together tonight. Eva is no stranger to looking sultry, so it's not surprising that her Diane von Furstenberg dress has a huge cleavage-revealing keyhole. A metallic chain-link necklace toughens her up a smidgen.
The Met's Costume Institute Gala: Ivanka Trump
Ivanka Trump doesn't need much to stun, but a little Brian Reyes never hurt anyone. Her nude tulle gown exudes beautiful sophistication. Note how the slim back belt calls attention to her waist — nice.
The Met's Costume Institute Gala: Tyra Banks
Tyra Banks emitted elegance tonight wearing a black beaded strapless gown. An old school updo and cascading ruffles give a vintage vibe while modern adornments update her vixen look. Do you love it or hate it?
The Met's Costume Institute Gala: Chanel Iman
Model cutie Chanel Iman usually wears short skirts and jeans so it's fun to see her in something so glamorous. For this special evening, she chose to wear a plunging animal print Zac Posen tiered gown, with a lariat necklace that lends major shine. Are you interested?
