GovMarley 90 Report post Posted May 7, 2014 I love the next day photos of the Met Gala! Worst dressed - Sandra Lee or Katie Holmes http://fashionista.com/2014/05/met-gala-re...~oDwXobl3eWKd4q Haven't decided on best dressed yet. I loved SJP - I like a funky ballgown!! Some of the outfits I like, but don't think they were appropriate for the event/theme... I wasn't digging Zoe Saldana's poofy bottomed dress, either.

Some of the outfits I like, but don't think they were appropriate for the event/theme... I really like the gowns by Oscar De La Renta and Zac Posen, Naomi Watts always seems to look amazing, no matter what she's wearing. I think this is my favorite dress: http://fashionista.com/2014/05/met-gala-re...~oDzFD4UnhR9COQ The Prada and Chanel gowns look as if the designers were trying too hard. Worst-dressed is a tough call, but Kate Upton's dress makes her look plump and matronly, not the look she was going for, I'm sure. Edit to add: I agree with everything in this article: http://fashionista.com/2014/05/worst-met-g...~oDzJZkjbxqsL7R Edited May 7, 2014 by theempress Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoyaheel 1,874 Report post Posted May 7, 2014 (edited) I liked Zac Posen's dresses too! My favorite was probably the one on Liu Wen (LOVE that color green!) but - and I can't believe I'm saying this - Sarah Silverman looked gorgeous in that maroon dress. But all the photos I have seen of her - she looks like she's doing "Blue Steel" ;-) Not so comfortable in the spotlight in a "fashion" dress, is what I'm thinking. Same with Reese Witherspoon, actually.... Dang, her chin looks like Katy Perry in this - they must both have very heart shaped faces? I never thought they looked alike before....

princess 1,712 Report post Posted August 27, 2014 (edited) NEWS/ Donatella Versace's Ice Bucket Challenge Was Very Donatella Versace by Soup Staff EOnline. com She's decadent. She's iconic. She once claimed that she sleeps in a freezer. Combine all of these characteristics and you have the perfect candidate for the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. Flanked by two beautiful boys holding two extravagant Italian urns, Donatella reigned over the task with her hair styled like it came out of a Rapunzel costume from Rite Aid. The only thing missing was a golden dog whistle, and a cue card. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59LrsaH6ZaA She actually meant to say YSL.

Hoyaheel 1,874 Report post Posted May 5, 2015 Offensiveness at the Met Gala (in terms of the theme) http://fashionista.com/2015/05/met-gala-2015-offenders?utm_source=Fashionista&utm_campaign=aea38fc4c3-Fashionista_Daily_May_5_20155_5_2015&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_4bdacaea8a-aea38fc4c3-330358238 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fykeylicious 1,099 Report post Posted May 5, 2015 I'm surprised there wasn't more offensiveness. It was a rather difficult theme to nail without either venturing into offensiveness or else being so minimally thematic that it hardly counted. And then there are those who didn't even bother to adhere to the theme at all... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
