“The biggest fashion extravaganza of the year is the annual Costume Institute Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art — sometimes called New York’s Oscars because of the star-studded red carpet. This year’s installment took place Monday to celebrate the opening of the “Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations” exhibition. A bevy of stars turned out, along with top names in fashion.” Susan Denley
With that said, here are the best dressed stars at the Met Gala 2012.

The post was too huge to add the worst dressed as well, so I might post them later on.
Now that you’ve seen the best dressed stars, who and which is your favorite?
What a great recap of these amazing gowns. What was with SJP? Not at all what I expected from her on a star studded night like that. Your thoughts.
It’s really hard to decide with all those amazing dresses, but I think Jessica Alba, Ashley Greene, and Cate Blanchett would be my top favorites. I am also very impressed by Donna Karan!
I totally agree with your picks.
I have been wondering the same thing 2. The gown was just so wrong for the MET Gala.
I agree totally. The dress screamed “Little House on the Prairie” which was one of her earlier shows.
My favorite was Camilla Belle’s Ralph Lauren dress. So elegant.
Care Blanchett was a close second for me!

Colins, Blanchett, and Alba! I love their dresses, and them, but it doesn’t mean that I love the others less.
Camilla Belle (always a favorite of mine), Jessica Alba & Lily Colins
Camilla Belle and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley! There were more nice dresses but they were paired not with the right girls or vice versa 🙂

I love january’s and nina dobrev’s!
Rachel Zoe’s dress shall belong to me.
I loved the Metallics on show at the Met Gala, I think my favourite was Jessica Alba’s Michael Kors dress but also really liked Nina Dobrev’s black and gold Donna Karan.
I can’t make up my mind about Beyoncé’s Givenchy dress – in some angles it looks fabulous and others not so much. I would really like to see her take on the metallic trend – I think she’d rock it!
Great picks! My absolute favorite is Victoria’s Secret model, Karolina Kurkova in Rachel Zoe…stunning!
