The biggest celebrities in the world donned their favorite designers couture trappings and sashayed down the red carpet at the annual Costume Institute Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. This is like the Oscars of fashion! The theme of the night--"Model Muse: Embodying Fashion" meant everyone went all edgy glam rock to wow discerning eyes. Jessica Alba was bold in Jason Wu beaded bodice cobalt blue mini-dress. Yep, the same Jason Wu who designed First Lady Michelle Obama's inauguration gown. He's so scored!
Eva the diva Longoria Parker was elegantly understated in Diane von Furstenberg, I think her best accessory is her dapper hubby Tony Parker. Yummy!
There is a God and he created Eva Mendes! Hot! Hot! Hot! in a metallic Calvin Klein gown. She could show up in a K-Mart Jacyln Smith collection dress and still be the best looking woman on the red carpet!
Tyra got the memo and ran with the night's theme! A ruffled mermaid concoction by Badgley Mischka. Hmmm, her braided updo was puzzling but probably was an homage' to the early nineties. Girl you better work!
My girl Rihanna was avant garde in a Dolce and Gabbana puff sleeved mens suit. Not my favorite look for Rih Rih, but the edgy design was just the thing to get people talking about something other than the obvious. Plus, it's the Costume Institute Gala dahlings!! everyone is trying to outdo everyone else to land on Page Six and Mahogany Glam!
