The Costume Institute Gala is first and foremost an annual ball that officially announces the opening of the Metropolitan Museum, usually consisting of a cocktail and a formal dinner. It is certainly the most exciting night of the year for us at StylX.net as the event hosted by Vogue is considered by fashion industry experts as the apotheosis of red carpets event. Every year the Met ball has a theme (previous ones were "Schiaparelli & Prada: Impossible Conversations" and "Superwomen") and this year it was all about "Punk: Chaos to Couture". As expected many impressed us but even more disapointed us by totally ignoring the theme (we are referring to you too Anna!). If there was only one chance throughout the year to combine costume and fashion it is certainly during that fashion-foward event but we guess some prefer to play it safe. On that matter some stood out from the crowd by donning fabulous punk-inspired outfits ; Madonna per example personified the essense of rock by sporting a Givenchy number worthy of the greatest punk icons. Talking of Givenchy, Ricardo Tisci, should be the designer to remember this year as Kim Kardashian, Beyonce, Rooney Mara and many more opted for his creations. Of course, one of our favorite, Sarah Jessica Parker stole the show with a fabulous Philip Treacy hat that litteraly captured the whole vibe of the event that had manequins wearing the punkiest of looks! Unfortunately it would be impossible for us to comment on all of the looks but we invite all the StylXtas out there to check out the red carpet in order get inspiration and let your inner rock style shine through! As a matter of fact, you could find great accessories in our Rock & Roll collection so please feel free to browse! We would also like to know which was your favorite dress in our Photo Booth area!
