In the Name of Fashion
There is no costume party quite so celebrated
as the Metropolitan Museum of Art's annual Costume Institute Gala, a
star-studded benefit that encourages sartorial creativity from its
attendees. Take note: This what "going all out" looks like.
Camilla Belle in Ralph Lauren
Classic beauty Camilla Belle
looked ready to party with Howard Hughes and the grand dames of old
Hollywood in her slinky beaded Ralph Lauren gown with its sheer tulle
yoke. Belle's art deco earrings, shiny side-parted bun, and deep
wine-hued lipstick augmented the decadent flavor of her look. The lady
is a fabulous, fabulous vamp.
Carey Mulligan in Prada
Newlywed Carey Mulligan,
the evening's co-host, showcased her tiny waist in a Prada frock
smattered with silver and gold fish scale paillettes of different sizes.
Nothing beats a classic silhouette paired with an intensely modern
texture.
Beyonce Knowles in Givenchy
Not one to suffer discomforts like chilly feet lightly, Beyonce Knowles
showed up to the party with her own personal shag rug ruffling around
her ankles. The singer's long furry purple train distracted us almost
long enough to miss all that sheer black Givenchy goodness attached to
it. Hopefully she and Amy Poehler met up inside to compare walking techniques.
Coco Rocha in Vintage Givenchy
Coco Rocha
nabbed her vintage Givenchy suit at auction: It once belonged to
Elizabeth Taylor. Unfortunately, it was difficult to pay the suit its
deserved attention, as Rocha's My Little Pony-hued hair extensions
proved mighty distracting
