Her dress introduced me to Mary Katrantzou.

View the gallery In which WE ARE FINALLY DONE. I'm sure I missed someone by accident, but it's too late now. MWA HA HA. I AM FREE. And also newly enamored of Emily Blunt. So in that sense I am still imprisoned... by my girl crush.
View GalleryMet Ball YES Carpet: Bianca Brandolini D'Adda
This lady is an Italian socialite/model/girlfriend to the Fiat heir/daughter of a Count/descendant of an Empress. To that list I shall add: caped crusader/optical illusion/potentially very expensive person/High Priestess of Liquid Gold (and possibly thus also of the Velveeta Skillet empire)/by-product

She looked great at the Oscars, and the White House Correspondents Dinner: But it turns out you can't win 'em all.
Read moreMet Ball Well Played: Brooke Shields
Apparently, Brooke here tore her meniscus during a performance of The Addams Family, so she was stuck navigating the Met Ball -- and its massive staircase -- with a funked up leg and a cane. And she totally worked it. The dress is kind of like webbing, in both a cool and
Read moreMet Ball Fug or Fab: January Jones
I love things that are art deco. So why do I not love this? Indeed, much like the lady behind her, I am giving it the side-eye. Maybe it's that the turquoise necklace is totally wrong with the dress, or how the gown just kind of... sits

View the gallery Oh, Claire Danes. It's amazing how much I love you now that you rock it out on Homeland on the regular. I also really enjoy your hair here. So 60s. So glam! I approve. But let's look at the rest of you, shall
View GalleryMet Ball Fug or Fab: Hailee Steinfeld
This is the ONLY pic of Hailee Steinfeld in the Getty Images offerings from the Met Ball, which makes me think she must have dashed on in there super fast. (In contrast, there are thirty photos of Heidi Klum.) I will start with a kindness and say that she has

View the gallery Maybe quitting Glee is giving me a renewed ability to appreciate Lea Michele, but this is great on her -- sexy, sleek, sparkly, and above all, she's not hiking it up to her wait to make sure she's getting maximum exposure. See, Lea? Sometimes

I screamed when I saw this on the live-feed Monday, and NOT in the good "OMG I DIE FOR HER FABULOUSITY" kind of way. In the "HOLY SHIT WHAT IS HAPPENING HOLD ME" kind of way: That is officially a shit-ton of appliques, which

View the gallery Typing the headline of this post made me realize we haven't seen Pink around much lately. Which is neither here nor there, but remember that time she hung from the rafters and sang a song perfectly while twirling around in a cloth and wearing a

I like this dress so much better in photos than I did on the red carpet: And the bottom of it is gorgeous. I am not wild about the back: The scoop-back feels little too wide, which makes it look like it doesn't really fit, although it

View the gallery Can I say again how much I love the Met Ball? Three green gowns, three yellow ones (that I remember), and five -- five! -- orange ones. Even Kristen Wiig got on the color wheel, y'all! Hollywood, why are you so BORING the rest of the year?

Jessica and I were discussing how much more we love the Met Ball than any of the awards ceremonies, and I think it's because of a few key factors: a) It comes up during a dry period, so we're always thankful to have such a hotbed
