The annual ball, which formally kicks off the Metropolitan Museum of Art's yearly Costume Institute exhibit, always brings in a bevy of style stars and of course, some stunning couture. This year the theme of the night is a tribute to Charles James, America's First Couturier, and we're expecting to see bright colors and some over-the-top gowns.
So, who will make the best-dressed list and who should fire their stylist? See our continually updated slideshow for all the red carpet looks -- and don't forget to tell us which ones are your favorites in the comments section!
If there is one night of the year when you can be sure that the fashion won't disappoint, it's the Met Gala. And this year was one for the books.
Yesterday evening the biggest designers, editors and celebrities came together to deliver some truly spectacular ensembles. Blake Lively literally stole the show in a curve-hugging Gucci number, Victoria Beckham proved, once again, that she is a fashion force to be reckoned with and Beyoncé was, well, just being Bey.
Check out our picks for best-dressed of the night, and let us know if you agree.
The model is showing a lot of skin, but somehow it doesn't seem like too
much. Maybe it's the length of the dress, or her loose waves that help
to balance things out, but one way or another Jagger manages to look
both sexy and sophisticated.
There are few occasions when a dress of this nature is appropriate, but the Met Gala sure is one of them. The print, volume and asymmetrical neckline all work together to create one statement-making gown.
This ensemble didn't photograph extremely well, but it was beautiful in person. Wiig's choice to wear pants inherently made her stand out, but it was the architectural dress overtop that made it a real showstopper.
For such a young star, Steinfeld has style in spades. This gown was extravagant in all the right ways and floated away from her body at the perfect spots. She looked age-appropriate and completely stunning.
Wearing a jacket as a cape is as fashion as it gets, but we especially love how Theron chose to mix such a feminine dress with a tuxedo jacket. The juxtaposition of the two make for a unique and striking ensemble.
