Costume Institute Gala 2008 "Superheroes: Fashion and Fantasy"

[Boomer]

I am disappointed,of course, because most of the dresses were boring and safe. I think Hollywood should fire their stylists.
And God ( or Anna Wintour) I am thankful that Lindsay Lohan nor Miley Cyrus were invited! Amen

I am thankful as well!! And I often wonder after these things if this is the best they can do- I mean cubic money, the biggest designers, stylists, hair and make up people- months to plan and get ready- and this is what we get?? Very few you would say Wow, that looks great!!

[Nimue]

Who is that last girl in #919, that Bee? Are there any more pictures of her dress?

Anyway, so far my absolute favorites are:

Kate Bosworth
Diane Kruger
Katie Holmes
Christina Ricci

I haven't browsed through the whole thread yet so I haven't seen all the dresses yet. I so wish Eva Green had been there. She would have ROCKED this theme.

 

[MonkeyFish]

Best dressed hands down for me: Bee Shaffer. I wish someone would wear that at the oscars.
But did anyone actually dress for the theme???

 

[elly9]

my favourites are:

Christina Ricci
Kate Bosworth
Lake Bell
Camilla Belle
Michelle Monaghan
Natasha Poly
Rosie H_W
Eugenia Silva
and Ashley Olsen a little bit

but this is the WORST MET gala i've ever seen!

 

[MonkeyFish]

other faves of mine: Kate bosworth, Kate mara, Camilla belle.

 

[LostInNJ]

Kind of disappointing that not many people dressed for the theme, or really anybody for that matter, but I love that Versace dressed so many people!
