Best Dressed in Met Costume Institute Gala 2012

Hollywood stars, fashion models, well known designers, producer’s and many other A-lister’s are all present in the previous Met Costume Institute Gala entitled “Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations”.

The theme for this year is “Surrealism”. Italian, Elsa Schiaparelli and Miuccia Prada, two well know names in terms of fashion who contributed an immeasurable account in the industry shared their artistically designed pieces which Thomas P. Cambell Director and CEO of The Metropolitan Museum of Art profess “Schiaparelli’s collaborations with Dalí and Cocteau as well as Prada’s Fondazione Prada push art and fashion ever closer, in a direct, synergistic, and culturally redefining relationship”

Elsa Schiaparelli and Miuccia Prada’s designs way back from the time when they were just starting to create a name was exhibited. The main reason why different celebrities and other well known names attend the event not just to impress but more on commemorating Schiaparelli and Miuccia Prada contribution.

Here’s the top 10 lists of the best dressed stars that walk the red carpet that night. This list is not made in any particular order.

1 – Jessica Alba

Mother of two stepped out or the red carpet wearing a metallic gown designed by Michael Kors. Can anyone tell she already had two kids? The 31 year old mother and actress elegantly arrive at the gala with her nice dress and a perfect smile.
2 – Beyonce Knowles

former Single Lady now Blue Ivy’s hot momma walked the red carpet in an intricately beaded black lace with purple feather at the ends created and designed by Givenchy. I can say that the few added inches gave her a much more voluptuous effect. Can you see a trace of a woman who just gave birth?
3 – Leighton Meester

One of the Gossip Girls arrived at the gala wearing a lace bodice in a puffy tulle skirt by Marchesa. The dress looks good on her and she looked great on that dress, confidence and class, that’s what she looks, and it’s not just the dress I also loved her purse and her makeup is just perfect.
4 – Amy Adams

Clad in a white or is it cream colored couture one-shouldered gown with gold bow belt by Giambattista Valli. I don’t think I have the right words to describe her, she just looks good, I love her dress and I love the way she carry that dress. Maybe anyone who wears white will look sophisticated and maybe not, be the critic yourself.
5 – Scarlett Johansson

She never failed to amuse me especially in this event. Wearing a Dolce and Gabbana creation, Johansson arrive in the gala in a bejeweled and tulle strapless nude dress.
6 – Lea Michelle

Another Glee star attend the gala wearing a sapphire plunging neckline dress by Diane von Furstenberg, clad with her fashion jewelry and a blue purse.
7 – Dianna Agron

One of the stars of Glee walked the red carpet wearing a Carolina Herrera gown. The emerald colored low cut neckline dress accentuated with a thin mint belt made her look perfect. Actually, it’s not just the dressed, it’s the way how she carry that dress that made her on the list of the best dressed for the night.
8 – Janelle Monae

A black pant suit with fashion jewelry as accents looks great on her. A combination of sexy and funky as most critics stated, although there are some who might claim that she shouldn’t be here, I guess there are still more who would want her on the list for being over the edge.
9 – Hillary Swank

Arrived at the gala wearing a simple yet elegant red dress by Michael Kors. While others are embellish with intricately designed clothes and accessories, Swank opted for this simple dress and I can say she had made the right choice.
10 – Chace Crawford, Darren Chris and Joe Jonas

This gorgeous men hits our list as one of the best dressed in The Met Gala. All sported a nice black tux except Kevin. Criss and Jonas wear’s a bow tie while Crawford opted for a tie.
