best of the rest:: Met Ball 2011

I think Isabel Lucas' stunning look at this year's Met Ball takes a lot to beat! However these are my other favourites!

Blake Lively arrived to the event on the arm of Karl Lagerfeld, as the new face of Chanel. She looked radiant in a taupe tulle pailette embroidered dress with chiffon sash from Chanel’s Autumn/Winter 09/10 Haute Couture Collection. The dress was set off by her newly copper locks, a colour that technically shouldn't work on anybody but looks beautiful!

I always love Rihanna, and this asymmetric black jewel encrusted thigh slit dress with scalloped edges was no exception. Her mermaid plait made the dress feel young and contemporary.

 

Lastly was Christina Ricci who embodied gothic glamour, looking like she has come full circle since her Wednesday Adams days, wearing a mega watt Zac Posen cobweb lace fishtail number. J'adore!

This right here is a slice of sartorial perfection in pleated pink Vuitton. Isabel Lucas looks like she arrived at this year's Met Ball on a cloud and dismounted her unicorn before walking the red carpet. The pearl headpiece of like something a princess from another galaxy would wear. The whole ensemble is so stunning and so black tie appropriate for the prestigious event, yet she keeps her laid-back Australian beach girl vibe. I am in love with it. This outfit cements this beauty at one-to-watch!
