The MET Gala: what every single person who is in fashion or who loves fashion looks forward to every year, excluding the CFDA awards. This year's MET Ball was held on Monday at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC. The Costume Institute Gala Benefit celebrated the opening of an exhibition titled "Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty", which featured the late designer's famous work; Alexander McQueen committed suicide on February 11, 2010. Sarah Burton was named creative director of the fashion house after his death. She has filled his creative shoes well, as shown by her most famous customer to date: Catherine Middleton. There was a ton of Stella McCartney, Carolina Herrera, Michael Kors, & Calvin Klein on this year's red carpet. Below are a few (ok, a lot) of my favorite looks from this year's MET Ball.
Diane Kruger in Jason Wu
Sexy & demure all at once. First look I saw of
the night, and definitely one of my favs!

Killin' it, as usual. Another one of my top picks
from last night.
who's wearing Calvin Klein Collection
Perfection.
Edgy rocker, little mermaid, and see-thru lace all
rolled up into one.
Manly womenswear. I like.
Red hot.
How low can you go?
Goddess-like
Could have done something different with her hair,
but I love that she actually went for it.
Always sleek & sexy.
Helloooo hottie!
A beauty, every time.
Another smokin' bombshell.
Looks like liquid metal gliding over her.
I love that the classic Missoni print has been muted
enough to where it's still visible, but the dress still
can stand on it's own.
Loving the bright pop of citron as a contrast
to all the other neutral looks.
The cutout in this dress looks sexy, not skanky.
This has a gilded, Egyptian feel to it, no?
Three words: Old Hollywood Glamour.
This dress, from the 1930s, looks so beautiful on her.
