What Was Your Fave Met Costume Institute gown?

cc · Marc Jacobs

I was just about to make a post about this! I was actually pretty disappointed. I think I had the same picks as you, except I kind of liked Jennifer Connelly and Kate Bosworth but definitely hated Fergie and Posh. There were a LOT of really horrible dresses.

I also liked

Diana Kruger

Kate Moss

Lisa Airan

Posh looks like a grandma.

I was disappointed as well. This evening is the one time that attendants are encouraged to wear fashion AS ART and not as practial dresses that they would wear anywhere else! If you can wear it to an awards banquet its a no! Why was everyone so safe this year?

I thought Jennifer Connely's dress wasn't so bad if it didn't have a tacky high slit. It looked like hooker-office wear.

I think they might have been worried looking tacky like say, Kate Bosworth. My favorite two posted here are Christina Ricci and Lisa Airan for lovely artsy dresses.

I thought a lot of them did a good job of keeping with the theme of "Superhero" even Posh...I could see where maybe she was going for a good vs evil thing...I don't think it was even close to being the best of then night...but definitely not the worst....no no no...the worst definitely goes to Mischa Barton..imo..Not flattering AT ALL...it looks like she pulled a Scarlett O'hara and ripped down the drapes then went after them with a bedazzler...bad bad bad

But some of the one's I actually liked...

I've never been a big fan of keyhole cutouts and what not...but i like how Olsen A's are on the side...kind of like she's been in a Superhero battle...(again...because of the theme) Olsen B...i almost kind of like the dress...but her hair ages her...badly.

Kimora Lee Simmons...I normally wouldn't like this dress...but with the theme...yeah..it's fun..

I didn't like her hair, but I actually loved Posh's dress. It was probably my favorite. I also think Christina Ricci's looked stunning.
