Costume Institute Gala 2008 "Superheroes: Fashion and Fantasy"

[Boomer]

No, that would have been great!! I'm just glad the Riddler or the Penguin didn't show up to disrupt the evening...

 

[Working Girl]

Well the event is finally over. It was a bit disappointing.The people I like didn't show up.

 

[Boomer]

Sarah Silverman - Should be euphanized...

Mischa B - What a mess...I thought when The OC ended she was going to become a major star...Very disappointing...

And the Olsen girls- I don't get it at all- for years now..What are they? Child stars with lots of money that look ridiculous, have no jobs and sleep with endless men?? Oh- the short Paris Hilton Sisters!! I get it now...

 

[bluedolphin]

Sasha Pivovarova looks so badly!!

 

[KKnardi]

^yes, worst russian taste.

I've only seen one picture of marc jacobs and he was with sofia coppola; anyone know if they arrived together?

I saw him with Kate Mara (who's family owns the NY Giants- no doubt Marc is a big fan...) looking absolutely stupid in a Superman colored suit...Tragic...

Caroline's dress looks like a Dynasty reject or something Kelly Taylor wore to prom on 90210. Am fairly disapointed. Didn't expect much from the celebrities, but I thought the models would go all out.

Anna W looks amazing and wacky at the same time. I love that she kicked it up. Not to be expected from her really

 

[sweetest_313]

I was hoping that too.

a la daria werbowy? thats what i would've done...B)

Fashion's Superheroes Come Out for the Met Gala

Anna Wintour, Zac Posen and Kate Mara, and Phyllis Diller — er Mary-Kate Olsen.Photo: Getty Images

The theme for last night's Costume Institute gala was challenging: superheroes. Oddly enough, it turned out to be the one time when nobody wore their underwear outside their pants, but stars were inspired to experiment — with very varied results. Our favorites? Zac Posen and Kate Mara's cartoon primary colors, Christina Ricci's rose tones, and Anna Wintour's alien queen look. But who forgot to tell Mary-Kate Olsen that Phyllis Diller isn't a superhero? To see 56 looks from last night's red carpet, click on the Party Lines slideshow.
