MET Fashion I: AngloMania Gala

The Costume Institue Benefit Gala is here! This year's theme is AngloMania -crazy for all things British. The glamourous committee that put together the after-dinner dance includes Lily Donaldon, Gemma Ward, Lily Cole, Lauren Davis, Camilla Al Fayed etc. A lot of gorgeous dresses this year, although there were also some disappointments.

The models: All I can say is, the models are models for a reason.
Lily Donoaldson and Gemma Ward -Omg, SO gorgeous and cute! They're both wearing Alexander McQueen SS06. Gemma looks amazing! Her cute doll look totally suits the child-like dress. Lily's dress is so pretty and flowy. They really picked out perfect dresses!

Lily Cole -A gold dress (haven't figured out what brand yet.) It's not the typical long dress -very Lily Cole. She always chooses unique clothes that make her look a cool school girl.

Jessica Stam -Stammy wore a Dolce & Gabanna SS06 dress. Usually so much feathers and lace would look weird and tacky, but she pulls it off well. Beautiful!

Karolina Kurkova -KK wore a Ralph Lauren F/W05 dress. I'm not a big fan of the dress but she makes it look very majestic, esp with that necklace.

Gisele Bundchen -Gisele wore a Dior dress. It's not exactly my favourite dress, but the supermodel made it look dazzling. The shocking pink really stood out.

Lydia Hearst -The socialite/ model wore a Dolce & Gabanna SS06 dress. Beautiful, rich and so fashionable -Love her.

Margheritta Missoni -In Missoni of course. She's so naturally pretty and pulls off the dress so well. Sigh.

Mathew Williamson and Erin O'Conner -The British of the year (2005) looks so edgy in comparison to the flowery dress -such a contrast!

Daria Webowy, Mario Testino and Kate Moss -Always the styish and unique dresser, Kate Moss (in Burberry) is the odd one who turns up in leather pants and suit. I don't really like Daria's dress though.

Roland Mouret and Natasha Poly - So colorful in a non-tacky way. Beautiful.

Anna Wintour and Bee Schaffer -The mother-daughter duo look so stylish. Mother in Dior Haute Couture and daughter in Chanel Haute Couture -they're the perfect fashion role models!

The celebs: Some good, some bad.
Mary Kate Olsen -MK wore a custom Badgley Mischka dress (not surprising since if you remember, MKA are Mischka's spokesmodel of the season.) The dress is so stylish, and I LOVE her accessories. I absolutely adore the feather clutch and the thick braclets look so lavish on her.

Ashely Olsen -Ash also wore a custom Badgley Mischka dress. The dress is quite divine, but her makeup and over-tanned skin is really not so attractive. I think the Olsen twins need to remember they're only 19 when they're choosing their makeup.

Lindsay Lohan - La Lohan looks soo chic and gorgeous! (Haven't figured out the brand of the dress yet, but will post if I find out.) I'm loving her dark hair, suitably-tanned skin and the stylish, yet youthful empire dress.

Scarlett Johannson and Stella McCartney -They look more like twins than the Olsen twins! I'm not liking Stella's suit that much, but Scarlett looks ok in the sequinned dress.

Jessica Alba -AMAZING! Seriously, she looks so stunning! The dress is by Calvin Klein. Love love LOVE her look.
