OPULENCE: 2013 MET GALA EDITION

The Costume Institute Benefit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art never fails to provide a feast for the eyes. While I, like any Disciple of Fashion, adore the outlandish freedom the event has cultivated over the years, I also appreciate the looks that are just plain lovely. "Punk: From Chaos to Couture" was admittedly a challenging theme to adhere to (without being begrudgingly obvious--safety pins! plaid! spike belts!) which made me appreciate even the most subtle of interpretations more fully. Below are my favorite looks from this year's event...

Christina Ricci in Vivienne Westwood, Katy Perry in Dolce & Gabbana, and Carey Mulligan in Balenciaga by Alexander Wang.

Gwen Stefani in Maison Martin Margiela, Nina Dobrev in Monique Lhuiller, and Diane Kruger in Chanel Haute Couture.
