[avoocadoo]

Ok I see pics in the internet, the make up is stunning, the dress amazing, her body!! ,

ok but about her hair, what a pity there is no ponytail or something...

too much gold ,anyway the outfit is 9/10

 

[milo84]

definitely the best dressed at the gala. every inch of a supermodel. love love love

 

[fantastical]

amazing. truly. only a supermodel could pull that off


I am still in disbelief that Rachel Zoe designed that gown, it's so chic

 

[michelabella]

She looked stunning, such a Supermodel!

IMGmodels blog posted about their models who went to the Met and no KK.

OMG! KK even helped design it herself!! her quote:

Model Karolina Kurkova collaborated with Rachel Zoe to create her rose-gold sequin gown with an open back and matching dramatic headpiece. "So this is really special to me that it's my own creation and that she let me co-design it with her and I get to wear it tonight to the Met Ball and no one else has it. No one's seen it. This is really one of a kind."

...Sorry, I truly don't get the fuss. She looks good, but I'm far from dazzled or amazed.

^ agree, looks good but looks a little like an alien mermaid to me, much as I love her.

 

[happycanadian]

well anything this extraordinary is bound to have some people who don't get it. but the majority seem to acknowledge KK as the best dressed of the night. she captured the spirit of the glamour of the evening.

thanks for all the HQ pics, coluchka. i wish i could find a video of her on the red carpet, though. i imagine the photogs must've been losing their minds. haha.

All Angles: Karolina Kurkova Gets Gilded and Gorgeous in Rachel Zoe at the Met Gala

Posted on May 7, 2012 10:12PM by Hannah Weil · 1 Comment
We're filing this Met Gala look under legendary: Karolina Kurkova is a vision in Rachel Zoe's custom-made gold-sequined gown. The supermodel took the red carpet by storm with the bold and beautiful confection, topped with a coordinating turban and finished with a jaw-dropping display of diamond bangles and rings. With confidence and glamour, she carries the '20s-inspired outfit perfectly, making it one of the most dramatic looks on tonight's red carpet — and with Karolina's playful poses, one of the most fun to watch. Click on to see every stunning angle and find out exactly why we're so smitten.

totally agree to this.

 

[Esperanza]

^ i think she would have looked so much better with her hair down!

agree, the dress is georgous but hair done would kill this outfit up to 120%

 

[fantastical]

oh no I LOVE the headpiece. it's so Rachel Zoe. I love how dramatic the whole look is.
Like one of those iconic gowns that Elizabeth Taylor or Audrey Hepburn would have worn

 

[happycanadian]

100% agree, fantastical! i understand that people don't enjoy the turban look. and i get it. but to take it away, would take the DRAMA of this look down several pegs. i mean, it was the cherry on top, that just took it to the edge and BEYOND! haha.
