The 2011 Met Gala, or the Superbowl of Fashion as I like to call it, was held last night at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC. The night’s honoree was Alexander McQueen, now headed by Sarah Burton, who also designed both of Kate Middleton’s wedding dresses this past weekend. No doubt the honor was well deserved as it celebrated the exhibition opening of Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty, which included the theatrical and beautiful designs of the late fashion designer whose career spanned nearly two decades. Here are my favorite looks of the evening:
Diane Kruger in Jason Wu, Jimmy Choo clutch, and Van Cleef & Arpels jewels
Gisele Bundchen in Alexander McQueen and Van Cleef & Arpels bling
Penelope Cruz in Oscar de la Renta and Chopard rings
Gwyneth Paltrow in Stella McCartney
Emma Roberts in Michael Kors
Jennifer Lopez in Gucci and H. Stern Jewelry
Ciara in Prabal Gurung
Salma Hayek Pinault in Alexander McQueen and Gucci bling
Brooklyn Decker in Michael Kors
