Last night the Met held its annual Costume Institute Gala which kicks off a special exhibition at the museum entitled “Model as Muse”. This is perhaps the biggest night for fashion, aside from the Oscars. Check out my picks for best dressed:
Love it or hate it, Canada's own Shalom Harlow is the ONLY one that could pull this off and still look like the epitome of elegance. Shalom wears Bob Mackie and Olivier Theyskens for Nina Ricci.
Tyra Banks shows everyone how it's done in Badgley Mischka.
Lake Bell in Rag & Bone
Alek Wek
Kate Moss in Marc Jacobs
Another Canadian export, Jessica Stam, looking lovely in Rodarte
Claudia Schiffer in a stunning Versace cutout dress.
Iman in Donna Karan
Diane Kreuger in Chanel
And the Worst…
Worst dressed goes to the host of the evening, Anna Wintour, and her accomplice, André Leon Talley:
Anna Wintour looking rigid as ever in Chanel Couture
André Leon Talley, looking sad — and who wouldn't, in a cape by Isabel Toledo, gold blingy chains and an Obama pin. (Note: It's not the cape's fault; not trying to bash Toledo here) ;)

Shalom is killing it in that Mackie/Ricci ensemble from The New World Order. Un-fuckin-real.
