MET GALA 2016 : The Best 10 Looks of the Night

The annual Met Gala is one event that fashion lovers, critics, celebrities and designers look forward to. This year, the Costume Institute ball held on the 2nd of May, was centered around the theme: "Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology," exploring the relationship between clothes created by hand (or "manus") versus the machine. Whilst a number of attendees went off theme, most celebrities showed up at the Met Gala dressed in sparkly metallics and shiny, futuristic-looking fabrics in line with the year’s theme. As always, there were hits and there were misses and we have listed the 10 best dresses of the night, in no particular order.
 Claire Danes - Zac Posen : This would have been another classic Zac Posen dress just like the usual beautiful dresses the designer is known for but the fact that the gown lit up, took it up some notches! This dress is the future and of course, it lands Claire Danes right on our ultimate best dressed list!
Kim Kardashian - Balmain: This metallic dress made the curvy star look more buxom than she already was but it was very futuristic and fabulous... the hair, the make-up  and the bleached brows... Kim Kardashian hit the right notes with this one.
Beyonce - Givenchy: The fact that they made this gown from latext is what lands Bey on this list! So much so,she got us asking if the dress came with a custom air conditioning... Givenchy, Bey and her stylist, Ty Hunter made this work on all levels
Nicole Kidman - Alexander McQueen : The queen in McQueen - END
Willow Smith - Chanel: The teenage Chanel ambassador was very mature, on theme and just so fab last night 
Zoe Saldana - Dolce & Gabbana : What a train, what a Zoe...
Lupita Nyong'o - Calvin Klein : Hair.. check, Makeup... check, dress.... somewhat safe but check!! 
Zoe Kravitz - Valentino We are totally here for Zoe Kravitz's ambitious look 
Jourdan Dunn - Balmain: Balmain was one of the major winners from last night's Met Gala and we loved everything about the supermodel's  look 
Rita Ora - Vera Wang We don't get to say this about Rita Ora often but she really SHUT IT DOWN in this Vera Wang beauty. 

That's all the 10 fabulous dresses our list can accommodate. What do you think of the list? Who do you think is the ultimate best dressed person on this list and who else should have been on it?

  2. Beyonce with her rubber dress should not be there plus she is over hyped. I have been trying to comment on your website but it's been difficult... why?

  3. I thought Zayn Malik should have made the list. If we are going for looks, Beyonce dress is hideous but like you say, maybe the fact that it is made from latex somehow makes it special (what would I know).
