A Life of Style: The Best & Worst Dressed at the Costume Institute Gala

5.13.2009

The fashions at this year's Met Costume Institute Gala ranged from classic evening wear, to thigh skimming cocktail dresses to some downright cringe worthy looks.

Here are my picks for best and worst dressed.

Let's get the Worst dressed out the way, shall we?

(L): Andre Leon Talley in what I can only describe as a nylon cocoon. I don't even want to know what's underneath and let's take a gander at those Pilgrim-esque loafers. Ugh! ALT looks downright scary in that upscale trash bag.

(M): Leighton Meester wore Louis Vuitton. Very Wonder Woman couture, in my opinion and not Leighton's best look. (R): Madonna thought rocking this Louis Vuitton was the way to go. I'm getting a very Robin Hood vibe from her look.

The Best Dressed:

Left to right: Iman in Donna Karen. Loving the strong, clean lines. She looks amazing. Classic and timeless Iman as always.

Donna Karen in one of her designs. You can never go wrong in black, its tres elegant.

Liz Hurley in Elie Saab Couture. Elie Saab is one of my favorite designers so I'm a little biased in selecting this as one of the best dressed of the night. Marion Cotillard in a gorgeous Christian Dior gown that highlights her curves.

Another Christian Dior gown worn by the classy Marisa Berenson who looks lovely in lavendar.

And last but not least the infamous Kanye West with his new girlfriend, Amber Rose. Miss Rose cleans up quite nice in red Carolina Herrera. Mr. West looks quite dapper in his custom made Louis Vuitton.
