The ombre effect, the giant paillettes! It's so very good; one of her best looks event, in my mind. ## Chloe Sevigny ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144004424-640x935-1588736706.jpg) Ah, yes. The traditional Broken Mirror Bathing Suit Cover-Up ## Marc Jacobs ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/spl388932_005-640x1234-1588737042.jpg) Somehow I HAD forgotten this and I can only believe that is because my brain BLOCKED IT OUT. MARC. WHAT. This IS an Impossible Conversation between your outfit and MY EYES!!!! ## Beyonce ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144007900-427x560-1588736776.jpg) "Here. This is sheer, but in comparison...not so bad, right?" ## Coco Rocha ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/143999682-compressed-1588736462.jpg) She bought this from Elizabeth Taylor's estate and I will ALWAYS love her for that. (I also think she looks very cute.) ## Solange ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/143999678-640x961-1588736452.jpg) PERFECT. ## Bianca Brandolini D’Adda ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/143998344-640x1007-Bianca-Brandolini-D%E2%80%99Adda-1588736416.jpg) She is an Italian socialite but we covered her this year because...COME ON. Look at this! It's amazing. ## Lana del Rey ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/143999721-compressed-1588736472.jpg) We're in the (small) cape portion of this event right now. ## Kirsten Dunst ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144002059-640x991-1588736583.jpg) Meanwhile, Kirsten Dunst is in her best Grace Farrell. (It's very cute on her.) ## Greta Gerwig ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/143998370-compressed-1588736425.jpg) Hey, look! It appears that Fan of Green Greta Gerwig has been a fan of green for MANY years. ## Jessica Pare ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144000081-640x961-1588736500.jpg) DING DONG! This is great on her. ## Camilla Belle ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/143998486-640x902-1588736443.jpg) Writing all these posts has alerted me to the fact that Camilla Belle generally looks superb at the Met Gala. ## ScarJo ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144006485-640x886-1588736717.jpg) And ScarJo generally looks subpar? ## Paula Patton ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/143999833-compressed-1588736490.jpg) Sure sure sure, this is fine. Very bridesmaidal, but you know. My face isn't on fire or anything. ## SJP ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144008621-640x961-1588736832.jpg) MY FACE IS ON FIRE. I loathe this so much. This might be my least favorite thing she's worn to this event. ## Gwyneth Paltrow ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144003883-386x560-1588736669.jpg) My face continues to be on fire. This is also Prada and it feels so half-assed! Maybe they spent all their time on Carey's dress. ## Lily Collins ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144001738-640x950-1588736528.jpg) This has a real Victorian Ghost Vibe. ## Debra Messing ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144000192-640x961-1588736510.jpg) This is a very typical look for her, and for good reason -- she wears it well. ## Will Arnett and Amy Poehler ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144000206-compressed-1588736519.jpg) VERY va va voom on Amy! ## Lena Dunham in Wes Gordon ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144001835-compressed-1588736537.jpg) I love the shoe pairing here; my question continues to be, does this need a BELT? ## Rashida Jones ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144001877-640x961-1588736547.jpg) We were lukewarm on this at the tme, but in retrospect, I sort of like this. SORRY RASHIDA. ## Anja Rubik ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144001937-compressed-1588736556.jpg) ANJA WHAT. This looks like you were attacked by a raccoon on the way to the party. ## Heidi Klum ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144001991-640x961-1588736564.jpg) One of Heidi's WORST looks? It's a long list but yes. ## Katharine McPhee ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144002026-compressed-1588736574.jpg) This is zingy, ## Kristen Bell ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144002170-compressed-1588736593.jpg) This is zippy. ## Kristen Wiig ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144002180-compressed-1588736602.jpg) And this is GREAT. (Those shoes are so 2012.) ## Ginnifer Goodwin ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144003919-compressed-1588736678.jpg) This is ALSO great. It's possible I just love orange. ## Leighton Meester ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144002194-640x920-1588736611.jpg) This is, of course, Marchesa. It totally overpowers her. ## Leslie Mann ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144002212-640x961-1588736620.jpg) Leslie Mann continues to have low-key great taste, even in this non-color. ## Florence Welch ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144002495-640x899-1588736630.jpg) V. subtle from FloWe as usual. ## Cameron Diaz ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144002666-640x961-1588736640.jpg) This read a little matronly on Cammy D. ## The Bradchens ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144003834-compressed-1588736649.jpg) YES, Tom has a fauxhawk here. ## Rihanna ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144004276-640x952-1588736687.jpg) We talked about this earlier in the week -- but man, this fits like a dream on her. ## Karolina Kurkova ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144004339-compressed-1588736696.jpg) Jennifer Lopez has to be irked that she didn't get this. ## Swank and Alba (Swalba?) ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144006616-640x961-1588736727.jpg) Dishy, both of them (although I give Alba the edge). ## Emma Stone ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144007788-1588736737.jpg) NEW YORK, NY - MAY 07: Actress Emma Stone attends the "Schiaparelli And Prada: Impossible Conversations" Costume Institute Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 7, 2012 in New York City. (Photo by Larry Busacca/Getty Images) This is VERY twee, but I think I like it more than others do, still. I think she maybe needed a less cutesy hair-do, though. ## Claire Danes ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144007803-compressed-1588736747.jpg) Is this too big? ## Lea Michele ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144008536-389x560-1588736804.jpg) This is like the photo negative of Claire's look. ## Shailene Woodley ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144007831-640x907-1588736756.jpg) This was VERY fun. ## Dakota Fanning ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144007873-640x874-1588736766.jpg) I bet this color was amazing in person. ## Ashley Olsen ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144008420-640x961-1588736795.jpg) ## Dianna Agron ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144008559-compressed-1588736813.jpg) Pretty!! ## Mia Wasikowska ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144008587-640x949-1588736823.jpg) This is not bad, but at the time I was very frustrated that she only ever dressed like someone's governess. This was the year after she did *Jane Eyre*, though, and maybe it stuck. ## Chanel Iman and Tom Ford ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144008675-compressed-1588736842.jpg) Not Tom's best work. (Although I need to know more about that ring!) ## Diane Kruger ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144009589-640x961-1588736850.jpg) I do love this. ## Victoria Justice ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144009596-640x961-1588736859.jpg) At the time, we felt this was Too Much, and...okay, it's still probably too much. (But if the sheer part hadn't ALSO had lace, it might have worked.) ## Kate Bosworth ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144009603-compressed-1588736869.jpg) This is very cute. ## Jessica Stam ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144009696-compressed-1588736878.jpg) "Wait. I thought we were doing Dangerous Liasions again this year!!" ## Christina Ricci ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144009698-compressed-1588736888.jpg) This -- with its HUGE bow in the back -- was SO charming. ## Amber Heard ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144009736-compressed-1588736898.jpg) Yes, this is the Giant Rear Adornment section. ## Nina Dobrev ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144009763-640x961-1588736909.jpg) Remember this? Nina had a GREAT run at the Met for a while, and this was fab on her. ## K. Stew ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144009937-640x924-1588736919.jpg) None of this goes with any other part of this. ## Julianne Hough ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144009966-compressed-1588736928.jpg) I mean, sure. This is fine. ## Caroline Trentini ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144010255-compressed-1588736937.jpg) IS THIS DENIM? ## Ladies Edith and Mary ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144011425-640x824-1588736947.jpg) I made a joke at the time that they both look in character here, but the truth is that I LOVE Lady Edith's entire look here VERY much. ## Anne V ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144011691-compressed-1588736957.jpg) This was at least probably really fun to dance in. (Yes, that's Fuckface Harvey Weinstein back there.) ## Karen Elson and Alexa Chung ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144011765-compressed-1588736966.jpg) I have logistical questions about Alexa's. ## Hailee Steinfeld ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144012162-640x902-1588736976.jpg) Underwhelming. ## Joan Smalls ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144014248-compressed-1588736985.jpg) Whelming, I guess? This feels like an early edition of Balmain Is Paying Me To Wear This. (Which is probably is; she's with designer ## Angela Lindvall ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/144015699-640x961-1588736995.jpg) This is very weird and also great. ## January Jones ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/1440004231-640x946-1588737005.jpg) Sure, sure, sure. Carry on. ## Rooney Mara ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/1440005171-640x961-1588737014.jpg) ALWAYS on brand. (She looks facially fantastic here, though.) ## Marion Cotillard ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/1440037201-640x961-1588737023.jpg) Oh, honey. This wasn't your greatest. ## Jason Wu and Karlie Kloss ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/spl388932_018-compressed-1588737051.jpg) ALSO not the greatest for either of them, I fear. (I sort of wish Karlie's dress ended where the black lace bit does.) ## Emily Blunt ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2020/05/spl390917_035-1588737061.jpg) 'Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations' Costume Institute Gala held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
