If you joined in on last night’s Met Gala red carpet live stream, you’re probably as disappointed as I am. The mediocre broadcast lead me to believe that E! News should have hosted the event. But instead, the prestigious ball was hosted by Hilary Rhoda and Billy Norwich of Vogue.com. While it was made clear that Rhoda had no idea how to give an interview, Norwich struggled to figure out who Leslie Mann was.
When it came time to ask the attendees who they were wearing, the hosts once again dropped the ball. I still haven’t figured out why they weren’t asking everyone this question. Then, when they actually decided to talk fashion, they didn’t even show the outfit being discussed.
Aside from the hosting fails, we did see some interesting fashions. The “Punk” theme left room for the guests to be creative and fun. While fashionistas, like Miley Cyrus and Sarah Jessica Parker, channeled their inner punk, others like Heidi Klum decided to go the classy, elegant direction. But when it came down to it, you needed the perfect amount of punk and couture to make the best dressed list.
Here are some of the ladies that mixed the right amount of punk with couture:
Kate Bosworth in Balmain
Kelly Osbourne in Marc Jacobs
Amber Heard in Emilio Pucci
Emma Watson in Prabal Gurung
Don’t forget that the main focus of the annual gala is to introduce the years Costume Institute exhibition. “Punk: Chaos to Couture” will feature around one hundred designs for men and women. Each aspect of the exhibit will examine punk’s high impact on high fashion from the movements birth in the early 1970′s through today. The exhibit will be running through August 14. I highly suggest checking it out and be sure to check out my upcoming review.
