This year's theme was "Model as Muse" and we all know that at one time or another, designers have had their muse for creating their lines. Here are some of the more famous pairings:
- Bob Mackie and Cher
- Halston and Jerry Hall
- Anna Sui and Naomi Campbell
- Louis Vuitton and Madonna
- Marc Jacobs and Anne Hathaway
- Chanel and Nicole Kidman
First the Hot Mess of The Met's Costume Institute Gala
All four of these fashion icons, just made odd choices...was this truly their intention to look somewhat odd, crazy, dowdy, and dated?
Rihanna in Dolce & Gabbana; Madonna in Louis Vuitton; Kirsten Dunst in Chanel; and Kerry Washington in Louis Vuitton.
Would you recommend any of these looks to your bridesmaids? How about wearing it to a cocktail party? I hope not, especially Madonna's rabbit ear headpiece.
Now for the Red Hots at The Met's Costume Institute Gala
These four style icons hit the mark. Not only were their outfits fresh, but they didn't look out of place either. I mean really...Ashley's Olsen's dress could have come off very Golden Girls caftan, Renee's color choice could have come off as pea soup, Kate Moss' gold lame dress with matching turban could have come off dated, and Anne's zippered dress meats Brigitte Bardot do could have been a big flop, but all four just sizzled. Now these outfits are trends I could live with.
Ashley Olsen in The Row (Mary Kate's Label); Renee Zellweger in Carolina Herrera; Kate Moss in Marc Jacobs; and Anne Hathaway in Marc Jacobs.
Can't wait until next year.

BTW I loved Katy Perry's dress best. The mixture of material with metal was hot! Especially loved the Wonder Woman cuff...Can't believe it was made by Tommy Hilfiger.

So what did you think of Katy Perry's dress? I loved her dress, super modern and a strong vibe. Kerry Washington looked like she found my Moreau High 1984 Winter Ball dress out of the garbage and had it re-worked. Madonna needs to get the memo that she's not a 20 something raver.
