It’s the biggest night in America’s fashion calendar with the guest list reading like a who’s who of the style elite.
So you can’t blame the likes of Blake Lively and co. pulling out all the fashion stops. Label of the night has to go to McQueen (who, thanks to Duchess of Cambridge Catherine’s wedding frock on Friday) and chief designer Sarah Burton, is having something of a style moment right now.
The stars nodded to the late designer Alexander McQueen in their droves, with Sarah Jessica Parker, Naomi Campbell and Hilary Rhoda all dutifully donning the fashion house’s wares.
Trends to note are sequins, thigh-high splits and metallics that even heavily pregnant stars Jessica Alba and Kate Hudson braved – and more than pulled off.
Our best dressed of the night has to go to the ever-stunning Diane Kruger (in Jason Wu) and her equally stunning beau Joshua Jackson – and special mention has to go to Blake Lively in Chanel Couture – can the girl do no wrong?
Perhaps it’s the Kate Middleton effect, perhaps it’s a nod to summer – but legions of stars slipped on floor-length white frocks too – although some worked better than others (here’s looking at you Fergie).
All-in-all a great night was had by all. Click on our galleries for a list of the good, the bad and the plain meh. Then let us know your thoughts…
Starting with…THE GOOD!
