Fashion at the Met Costume Institute Gala

Stars of film, fashion, television and music were at The Metropolitan Museum of Art for the Costume Institute Gala last night which honoured the late, great, Alexander McQueen.

Naomi Campbell (who's made it onto a few worst dressed lists) said of him: ‘He was a very sensitive, very instinctive and intuitive person - private and a very affectionate and lovely man. He was a monstrous talent.’

Celebrity attendees included SJP, Gisele, Rihanna, Jessica Alba and Beyonce and Jay-Z who were booed by photographers for failing to stop for extra pictures!

We’re more interested in who did stop!
















Jennifer Lopez in Gucci. The colour looks gorgeous on her. The shoulders take the floral trend to a new level!
































Rihanna in Stella McCartney. As usual she shows a lot without showing a lot. Not sure about The Little Mermaid inspired hair.























Beyonce is curvy perfection in Emilio Pucci. It looks really tight - how did she walk? Or breathe? The things we do for fashion! Feeling Jay's lo 'fro.




























Tamara Mellon, Thandie Newton (who never looks bad) in Stella McCartney with Freida Pinto in Chanel.




















Kerry Washington in Escada. Gorgeous dress and we love the 80's inspired hair.


























Solange in Dries Van Noten. Umm...we like her hair. That's it.

































A very serious Ciara in Prabal Gurung. Beautiful, beautiful dress.































Alicia Keys in Givenchy. Too much brown drowns her and the jacket brings the dress down.































Eva Mendes smoulders in Stella McCartney. This lady certainly knows how to work a red carpet.
































Rashida Jones underwhelms in Stella McCartney. It's not a bad dress, it just doesn't have much wow for an occasion as wow worthy as this.


























Zoe Saldana in Calvin Klein. Simple and elegant and love the easy waves in her hair.






























Janelle Monae in The House of Chanel. We're getting a bit bored of this look now.































Iman in Stella McCartney. She looks stunning but we don't recommend matching your outfit with your hair.



























Jennifer Hudson in Vera Wang with Vera Wang. It's a little bridesmaid'y.































John Legend and Christine Teigen. A little too 'showgirl' for us but fitting for an event like this we suppose.





























Nicole Ritchie in Jason Wu. Very 'old Hollywood'.
































Joan Smalls in Tom Ford looks supermodel perfect.































Serena Williams in Oscar de la Renta. Could have worked sans the hat.
