MET COSTUME GALA 2010!

I feel like for the first time in a while, there were a lot of really well dressed celebrities on the red carpet. I found the awards season this past January and February quite disappointing, however the Met Gala red carpet was everything but disappointing! There were a couple horrifying looks (Janet Jackson, Katy Perry, etc) but I thought for the most part everyone looked spectacular.

1. Emma Watson in Burberry
Emma looked exceptional in this Burberry dress. Personally I think she always looks great- she's such a beautiful girl. The shape of this dress really flatters her, but I wish she had experimented a little more. It would have been great to see her in some color.

2. Jennifer Lopez in Zuhair Murad
I was actually shocked to see Jennifer Lopez wear a dress like this. She looks so stunning! I assumed she would flaunt something short and sexy- a lot more cutting-edge than this Murad gown. I hate to admit it because I don't love Jennifer Lopez that much, but I think she was the best dressed by far.

3. Zoe Saldana in Calvin Klein
Whenever I see pictures of Zoe she always looks like such a happy person. She's so radiant and classic in this Calvin Klein dress- the one-shoulder style really works on her. 


4. Marion Cotillard in Dior Haute Couture
Out of everyone's look on the red carpet last night, Marion's was my second favorite. It isn't even the dress (yes the Dior looks amazing on her) but it's also just her. A dress never wears her- She's always glowing. Remember the mermaid-style Galliano dress?? She always pulls of the most magnificent looks, but she's never shadowed by them. Her looks are always exciting without being over-the-top.

5.  Stella, Kate, and Liv all in Stella McCartney
I love this group. End of story. They're always on the red carpet together and they always look great together. I love love love this picture, because they're all so stylish and they all look so confident which is very refreshing to see. However I thought their looks were slightly boring, just as Emma's was. Where's the color??? It's spring! 


I was going to include Blake Lively, Kristen Bell, Margarita Missoni, and Anne Hathaway, because I loved their looks as well but this post was getting too long. I loved Margarita's look because she made it her own- she always does that, and I find it very inspiring. It never looks like some company just slapped a label on her. I think she always dresses herself and I like that. It's quite rare to see this when almost every celebrity/socialite has stylists these days. As for Blake Lively- I loved her Marchesa dress SO much but it was a hundred times too short! Usually in photographs you can't really tell how short a dress is, but she looked ridiculous! It was frustrating, because I wanted to like her look so badly. I like her, and I really like the dress but it just didn't work. Kristen Bell looked really pretty as well, but she didn't look as stunning as any of the women above. Anne Hathaway I had to at least mention because she looked lovely however I feel like I've seen that dress a million times before at other events. 

If I have time later I'll make another post with more pictures, because there were a few people who I didn't mention but who also looked really great. To see all the pictures click here.

What did you think of the looks?! Who do you think was the best dressed?
