Lindsay Lohan loves them. Not impressed? Kate Moss loves them. Not convinced. Madonna loves them. There. They were hot last Fall and it looks like cool leather jackets are here to stay. Some may argue they are a classic, the aforementioned ladies and maybe Slash, but for some the leather jacket is dicey. To prevent from looking too rocker babe or too aggressive, twin one with a feminine slip dress or a ruffled blouse. There, cool babe perfected.

The lovely Lily Collins was just that on tonight's Met Gala red carpet. The actress was the picture of sweetness and femininity in a soft floral-print and lace-trimmed Valentino gown. A darling bow cinches the waist, but Lily opts for unexpected accessories, choosing an exotic gold adorned clutch, then finishing with a simple pair of gold studs. Save for those gorgeous brows and a hint of blush, Lily needs little else to complete her look. What do you think?

Sarah Jessica Parker made her appearance on the Met Gala red carpet tonight wearing a long-sleeve floral Valentino gown complete with matching point-toe pumps. We're not sure if it's our favorite SJP look, but it was unique nonetheless. To finish her ensemble, Sarah added a tough edge via gold cuffs on both wrists and silver drop earrings. What's your take on her eccentric glamour?

Florence Welch hit the red carpet donning a tiered ruffled gown by Valentino. Lace embroidery and long sleeves add to the vintage vibe, while Welch's fiery red locks provide maximum contrast against the pale yellow hue. On the beauty front, the singer stayed natural with a matte rosy lip and auburn eye shadow. What's your verdict on this one?

There Are Few Things Quite So Stunning as the Red Dress - Elizabeth Olsen's the Proof

Hannah Weil — Tue, 17 Apr 2012 08:39:00 PDT

Elizabeth Olsen's Valentino gown at last night's Grand Chefs Dinner in NYC had our jaws dropping for two very simple reasons: its statement-red hue and ultrafeminine fit (in that order). It's the kind of dress that leaves a lasting impression - and one that calls to mind the diaphanous red bridal wear we just saw from Vera Wang. We already knew red was a standout color - now we're wondering why we ever shy away from it. It calls to mind totally confident, classic beauties like Cindy Crawford and it has unmatched red-carpet impact. You may not be walking the red carpet anytime soon, but you may have your own reason to slip into a killer red dress. Be it your prom, a black-tie wedding, or a Spring gala in your future, we promise, there are few things quite so stunning as arriving in a red dress like this. We sought out the most glamorous red options; just shop to channel Elizabeth Olsen's totally magnetic red-carpet moment.
